ODUDUWA ANTHEM TO BE RECITED IN ONDO PUBLIC SCHOOLS AND FUNCTIONS
The Ondo State Government has adopted the Oduduwa anthem in all public schools and official functions across the State.
This is coming amid calls for secession and actualisation of the Oduduwa Republic.
The State Government gave the directive in a circular dated May 6, 2021, and signed by the Permanent Secretary, Ondo State Teaching Service Commission, Tolu Adeyemi, and addressed to the tutor-generals, all TESCOM zonal directors and all principals of public secondary schools.
The statement in the circular reads: “The present administration of Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu (SAN) has adopted Oduduwa Anthem as part of the civic responsibility of all residents in the state.
“To this end, the singing of the Oduduwa Anthem has become mandatory at all functions in all public secondary schools in the state.
“Therefore, all schools’ principals and other top functionaries in the public secondary schools are enjoined to adopt, teach and encourage the singing of Oduduwa Anthem at all functions, especially, at the morning assembly in all schools. The copy of the song is hereby attached.
“Kindly internalise and externalise the contents of this circular. My kind regards, always.”
