First anthem of Nigeria: Nigeria we hail thee... (1960-1978)

Nigeria we hail thee,
Our own dear native land,
Though tribe and tongue may differ,
In brotherhood we stand,
Nigerians all, and proud to serve
Our sovereign Motherland.
Our flag shall be a symbol
That truth and justice reign,
In peace or battle honour'd,
And this we count as gain,
To hand on to our children
A banner without stain.
O God of all creation,
Grant this our one request,
Help us to build a nation
Where no man is oppressed,
And so with peace and plenty
Nigeria may be blessed.

Truly, A man of 50+ is expected to be in the 2nd half of his life and start to reap the fruits of his labour...

Nigeria is 57 and a lot of challenges facing is amalgamation, creation, political, economic, social and physical state.. The word of restructuring as it is the biscuit in d mouth of Nigerians, yes, let accept but restructuring should the of mind... Let change begins with me.

Our freedom must have mistakes to have greatness...... 

I quote...
'Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.'-Mahatma Gandhi.

Great people...... Wake up
Great Nation....... Stand up
One in Africa..... Stand to your responsibility
To d world...... Arise and shine.....
