Ambassador Sylvanus Nsofor, drew attention during his Senate screening when asked to recite the National Anthem by a member of the Senate committee.

The lawmakers exhausted by the back and forth argument, left in complete surprise at his refusal, were left with no option, but to ask him to take a bow and leave.
