A Bid For Change

We wish to make a wish, And our wish for now is change, Our sons and daughters are dying, Our kith and kin are suffering, Including our awaiting rain That is about to fall. In the womb of her mother You can hear her call, A call which is for us all Not only have midwives fathomed it We amateurs can as well see through As she will not stop until her victory is sustained. Since hands still exist And the tongue never gets sick They are to work for a purpose Assigned to them by divine nature If to the manifold to be beheld, We will not be sick to make a move; If to a level of meeting our end We will win, We wouldn't hesitate To take a bold step For we are Nigerian future leaders And want nothing but a better Nigeria. We only have a unique manifesto, It is a bid of change for a better Nigeria.
