Together We Shall Overcome

Nigeria is on the precipice A country in dire need of redemption Blessed extravagantly by providence But ravaged ignorantly by Leadership failure Built on faulty foundation of Impunity, corruption and nepotism Which has engendered overtime Inequality of crass proportion As insignificant few Swim in obscene opulence While embarrassingly majority Wallow in criminal poverty Arise you men of good will Silence is no longer golden Arise wrestle our country back From the spirit of live and let die Arise my compatriots to the clarion call To rescue God’s masterpiece From total annihilation Stand up and be counted Together let us overcome
