Endowed with numerous natural resources not excludingabilities of different kinds.Endowed body without head! Things done in joy and sorrow,Mission towardsattaining vision equal zero.
Dying in silence yet trying to cover it up with expensivesmile.
Thriving into politics-like business; with the sole aim ofmaking profit,
With the ambition of developing themselves.
Diggers and not leaders,
Farmers of corruption; harvester of Militant, Bokoharam andwhat have you.
Crude oil, Cash crops, Education; rest in peace.
Throwing us into the lagoon of dilemma,
To go forward not easy,
Going backward reallyforbidden.
Chop make I chop.
Camouflaging themselves with in dependency; forgetting theattributes of an independent nation.
Making themselvesnovice of their father land,
Speaking deceit with their mother tongue.
Making themselves regret her independent
thus, radiating doubt of development amid her citizen.
Assembling themselves in cage for business.
Importers of processed ideas,
Great marketer of another manâ's product.
Kudos to private sectors, Why?
Dead government holdings.
Major factor to individuals’ problem.
Bird of same feather flocks together,
Rich; friend to the rich,
excluding poor from her dictionary.
The Baba Ijo of “Hot Ice†International Church,
Iya Adeen of Honey well Mosque,
Founder of Operation Plant Corruption.
Employers of parasite; thus feeding on citizens’ effort,
Architect Bada, Minister of Finance
Inspector Eze, Minister of Agriculture
Captain Musa, Minister of Education.
Ah! Sleeping on duty,
Resultant effect; confusion,
Deteriorated educational system; leading to dilution of studentsâ'skill.
Even food insecurity amid farmers, radiating among consumers.
Coating themselves with both local and exotic manifestos;
Yet thousands had no shoe.
Millions, no job
Insecurity increasing at an alarming rate.
Farmers of SEVEN crops, harvester of none.
What a lazy somebody!
God bless Nigeria
I say! You say!! We say!!!
