The Federal Government has said that the whole Lagos National Theatre complex would not be renamed.
The facility was erected in 1976 to host the FESTAC 77 Festival of Arts, which took place in 1977.
The complex under repair will be called as the Lagos Creative and Entertainment Center, according to Information Minister Lai Mohammed.
The administration, on the other hand, stated on Tuesday that it is only rebranding the complex that houses the structure.
The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, claimed on NTA that the debate over the National Theatre's renaming is "simply a tempest in a teacup."
"What we indicated in Spain was that the National Theatre complex is undergoing a lot of development work."
"You have the National Theatre, which has been completely restored, as well as four centers for music, fashion, technology, and cinema. You can't call them all National Theatres anymore.
"The entire complex, which includes the National Theatre and the four hubs, would be called as the Lagos Creative and Entertainment Centre."
