All said and done

All said and done 
Nigeria is the giant of Africa 
Though currently lost in a maze of confusion
The giant is on a journey of self-realization
The journey of self discovery 
Shedding its skin of criminal enterprise
Preparatory to launching 
into orbit of true colossus 
That destiny has thrust upon her
Rapists currently taking advantage 
Of her lust for inanity
Be warned and retrace your steps
For calamity awaits every partaker 
In her current misadventures 
For the sleeping giant is at the dawn of its wakefulness
