At Crossroads

Nigeria my Country Assailed,buffeted and violated By evils of unimaginable proportions Lies prostrate at the crossroads Insurgency an anathema in our country Has torn to shreds Our territorial integrity Banditry and kidnapping like cancer Are gnawing at our very existence Human lives are more devalued Than our cursed currency Nothing looks strange any more Nothing is certain any more The Shepherd has lost control And the flock scattered In all directions Don’t cry my beloved country Cause help is on the way Beyond these challenges Nigeria looks beautiful But woe betide every Partaker In this national calamity!
