How many Nigerians can recite and believe our Nigeria National Anthem. Arise, O compatriots, Nigeria's call obey. To serve our Fatherland, With love and strength and faith.
The labour of our heroes past, Shall never be in vain,
To serve with heart and might. One nation bound in freedom, peace and unity.
O God of creation, Direct our noble cause;
Guide our Leaders right: Help our Youth the truth to know,
In love and honesty to grow, And living just and true,
Great lofty heights attain, To build a nation where peace and justice shall reign
Arise, O Compatriots
Arise, O compatriots: Haven’t we slept enough, complain enough, blame enough? HEROES ARE NOT THOSE WHO SLEEP
Nigeria's call obey: Isn’t time we heed to the call of the moment? GIVE UNTO CAESAR WHAT BELONGS TO HIM
To serve our Fatherland: When was the last time you did something for Nigeria? "Ask not what your country can do for you"
With love and strength and faith: Selfishness, nepotism, Corruption is now what we do best. HOW LONG CAN WE DO THESE
The labour of our heroes past: Time has come we all them to REST IN PEACE. WHO ARE OUR TODAY'S HEREOS?
Shall never be in vain,: Brethrens remove ethnical divide, religious bigotry let us move ahead. HOW WILL YOU BE REMEMBERED?
To serve with heart and might: Enough of serving with our pockets and hands. LEAVE A LEGACY LIKE THOSE YOU ADMIRE
One nation bound in freedom, peace and unity: Besides Football, Music what else bind us together? THINK OF THE UNTHINKABLE
O God of creation: Whatever name you call him, he created everything. LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOUR LIKE YOU LOVE GOD
Direct our noble cause; We must not always give everything humanly possible to God to sort out. DO YOUR BEST
Guide our Leaders right: Devil has taken over our leadership, because we have allowed the devil. VOTE THE RIGHT PEOPLE
Help our Youth the truth to know: Our Youths now live in fear for future, only truth they know is Govt don’t care. LEADERS OF 2MRW
In love and honesty to grow: Only if we have credible leaders who put the nation first before other things. WE NEED PARADIGM SHIFT
And living just and true: Everybody now live a lie, either the govt lies to its people, or the people lie to the Govt. FRUSTRATIONS
Great lofty heights attain: Not even in dreams, we have even lost the NIGERIAN DREAM, the GIANT OF AFRICA is now a wounded Tiger.
To build a nation where peace and justice shall reign: We now build a nation, where justice is for the rich, Peace is only but a mere word.
The solution to our problems lies in the Nigeria creed. We must have to read it again, believe in it, preach it, and live it. It’s not so difficult to do. LET US DO THE RIGHT THING TODAY............YES WE CAN
"The notion that a radical is one who hates his country is naive and usually idiotic. He is, more likely, one who likes his country more than the rest of us, and is thus more disturbed than the rest of us when he sees it debauched. He is not a bad citizen turning to crime; he is a good citizen driven to despair". - HL Mencken
May We Heal Our Land
May God Bless Nigeria
