The guests at the event refused for the American anthem to be sung before the Nigerian anthem.
There was a mild drama on Tuesday at the 18th Annual Thisday Awards held in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital, as guests at the ceremony kicked against the American National Anthem being sung before the Nigerian anthem.
Guests were already seated when the award organiser, Nduka Obaigbena, owner of Thisday Newspapers, and the Ogun State Governor, Ibikunle Amosun, ushered in Bill Clinton, former American President.
After that, the Master of Ceremony announced that the American Anthem will be sung followed by the Nigerian anthem.
