OH! Nigeria
What a great country
The pride of Africa
Where corruption has taken over its mind
The great nation in Africa
With a heart of stone
Forsaking its children and people
A country flowing with milk and honey
But the people can’t see the good side of her
Filled with potential people
But lack benevolent ones
Nigeria my country
The giant of Africa
Beautiful country with beautiful people
As colourful as butterfly
And proud like a peacock.
A country
Brought out in the
Bossom of pleasant flowers
Showing its capacity
And ability to born and achieve greatness
Unfortunately, it producing
Dishonest and deceptive politicians and leaders
Nigeria my country
Where corrupt leaders
In sheep clothing are found stealing the country’s money
And running the economy down
As bright as crystal
You see them shine
All because of the wealth they have obtained in the country
Through stealing Embezzlement of public fund
Nigeria my country
By its supremacy
It is being measured
Crown as giant of Africa
A country Filled with
Agricultural produce
But with no refinery
Oh ! Nigeria
A country born through struggle and determination
Bathed with love, unity and peace
A fast growing country with wealth
But the people are being denied of its heritage
Nigeria my country
Prosperous country without power to
Ascend and promote its land
A country with a brave and outstanding heart
Sitting on the throne of power and authority
But being controlled by those under her
Nigeria my country
With 36 states and the largest country
In the continent of Africa
Lying peacefully on a fluffy chair
Lifted above all their countries
Found in the blossom of desire
Holding the weapon of greatness,
Covered with the robe of honesty and faith
But look ! it has fallen
In to the dungeon of confusion
And in the pit of indecision
Nigeria my country
A country that overwhelms
Its people with its cultural activities and attires
But misuse all these by not showing any sign of
Care and appreciation
Simply because of bad leadership
A country that is not dedicated to its people
With no form of sincerity roaming in it head
Nor running through its mind
Just because of bad leaders
Blessed with oil
Flowing like fountains of water
Gifted with natural resources growing like trees
.Instead of maintaining all these gifts from God
It allows the white man take them away
What a pity.
But then,
There is still hope of neutrality
Where competent leaders and patriots
Would be raised where leaders will come out
With patriotic leaders
And when other country will stand before you and say
NIGERIA!!!
You are the greatest and most powerful
Country among every other country
You need to be praised.
A country where poverty and hunger will no longer exist
When your people will stand up for you
And it will be a country where everyone will find
Joy living in her
Nigeria my country
Oh! Nigeria
The land of our forefathers
The land of our fathers
Nigeria , Nigeria,Nigeria
The land of my birth
This is the land of my birth
Nigeria!!!
My dream land the green land
I have a dream that one day
There will be no riot, chaos or
Boko Haram to tear us apart
Every individual will speak the language of peace
Every child has the right to survival,
Protection and education.
Corruption will be killed in our land
Every citizen will have the right to speak
I dream of a land
Where the stains of kidnapping, armed robbery,
Fraud, examination malpractices, bribery,
Child and sexual abuse and all other forms
Of guilt are cleaned from all minds.
Where the government and the masses
Are considered equal
Where there will be no tout or harlot on the streets .
Where there will be no fake drugs
Where the leaders of tomorrow are guaranteed the future
Where every citizen has an important role to in the economy
Where good and motor able roads are constructed
Where citizens will no longer queue for fuel in our patrol stations
I dream of a time
Where there will be stable electricity supply
In our homes, offices and factories
Where we will run violent free elections
Where laws are postulated and obeyed
Where there will be no Doctor, teachers or ASSU strike
When our natural resources will be utilized to help the poor
And less privileged
When sport histories are restored and we will not have to struggle
For medals and awards.
when no citizen will be striving to leave the country due to bad economy
Where all retired workers will live on pension
And young unemployed ones will take over
When building will be built with good building
Materials preventing them from collapsing
And killing innocent ones
When the entertainment industry will be imp active not
Not having a situation where some videos or music will be banned
When students will be educated on scholarship awards
To graduate and better the society
When inflation will stop
When the supply will meet the demand
When we will be known across the universe for a good thing
My dream land the green land
May my dreams for you become a reality.

A home so calm and beautiful
Like a valley where husband flourished comes
Lilies lie. Where thirsty doves come
To quench their thirst
And keep themselves at rest
Habitat for its inhabitants
Place where both pride, beauty
And modesty are beheld
Valley of lily where solemn
Words of cheer were spoken,
No promise broken
A valley where beautiful
Daughter were born, great men brought up
Great teacher raised, wise proverbs shared
All is superb in my beautiful
Valley, my habitat, my home of
Faith, unity and love
MY GREAT HOME NIGERIA

Nigeria a place endowed with all the natural resources
And the finest ornament and beauty of nature
Nigeria a place filled with
The need to survive,
Nigeria a peaceful bossom of the continent
Nigeria my loving country
Nigeria a place also filled
With corruption, bribery and embezzlement.
Nigeria, a place you must struggle to earn a living
Even as this takes place,
I love Nigeria

To a better and greener pasture
I love Nigeria because it needs an individual like me
An individual who keeps optimism alive
