LAMENTATION ON MY COUNTRY

LAMENTATION ON MY COUNTRY

I lament Nigeria my country, beautiful Nigeria where law makers break the law

Where citizen store billions of naira abroad and we go a borrowing

Where filling station are always empty

Where force uniform is license to corruption

I salute the generals

General jibiti l salute your office of fine philandering distinction it is you I salute so soulfully

Your tight military mouth carries the pangent odor of our political power democrat I salute you

We shall eat governance this afternoon

I lament my beautiful country where officers defraud through errand boys

Where guy robbers are shot and pen robbers are spare

Where laws are perverted on ones recognition

Where there is never enough power anytime

Where body-guards turn smuggler

I lament Nigeria my country

I lament my brith land

Where unity is preached but discrimination  is practices Nigeria, my darling Nigeria

The land that once flowed with protection and guardians

The that once flow with milk and honey

The once giant of African but now ant of African

The cynosure of the world could this be really said of thee?

Nigeria a where the leader did not as respect of our education

Where the leader sent their children aboard to study

Where the leader is not free to work without security

Nigeria! Oh Nigeria!!   

My beautiful country

God is able to turn the above to positive

My name remain still
