Long Live Nigeria

Long Live Nigeria

Long live Nigeria!

Our caretakers provisionally value us. Should we return the favour?
They loot our silver to fortify their houses but act like our saviour.
O! I dread the day when more death hawk-ers will come to prey.
My home was porous yesterday and bleeding profusely today.

Long live Nigeria!

Today I take responsibility         for my fate.
     I will achieve for me       and not delegate.
Today I break the routine           and close that chapter.
     No more dopamine         from fake laughter.

Long live Nigeria!

Where is the architect capable of transforming idea to design?
I must increase my worth. No one should stall what is mine.
I will build myself to convert brilliant plans to reality.
I stand tall and proud; aware of my new identity.

Long live Nigeria!

Today I take responsibility         for my fate.
     I will live for me             and not delegate.
Today I break the routine           and close that chapter.
     No more dopamine         from fake laughter.

Long live Nigeria!
