Born out of imperial greed and convenience

A ‘new’ people - so self-conscious, unique and diverse


With a quality, untainted passion that defies science


Making a mockery of the scene at Babel, in fact, adverse


That is my Nigeria!


 


She has and is weathering through them all


-         Negative, retrogressive sentiments


-         Corruption  


-         Irresponsible leadership


-         Avarice


-         Gluttony


-        


By providence she has always stand tall


That is my Nigeria!


 


 


Aspiring towards her true potential


Believing those mountains inconsequential


It is not impossible!


Since with this commitment they are soluble


Paving way for that destined rise


For our Nigeria, our deserved prize, our paradise!


That is our Nigeria!
