DIRGE OF THE NATION

Nigeria our own nation
Giant of our own continent
Never shall you be indifferent
To uphold the health of this nation

The enemies bracing their bows
Terrorist detonating their bombs
Like the eagle we soar in the sky
Yet our nest set ablaze; we sigh

This insecurity is actually avoidable
Loss of lives and properties regrettable
These boundless monsters show no pity
Who shall restore our beloved city?

Every day we pray for lasting change
Up till now evils go out of range
Bribery appears on every page
Corruption the artiste on stage

Every new regime leaders are zealous
Pocket and private interest ever jealous
What a nation of monetary perversion
Virus in the cities; outcry for caution

We are calling for a well and better nation
Let us move for the prayers of this motion
All sectors in sincerity is the effort
That will bring the desired glory forth.

    Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied
    on the video to make your point. You clearly know what youre
    talking about, why throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to your weblog when you
    could be giving us something informative to read?
