OH!! NIGERIA: An INVOCATION to THE GOD of OUR FATHERS
OH!! NIGERIA: An INVOCATION to THE GOD of OUR FATHERS_ Chukwu Okike Abiama- the greatest deity of all time Your unquestionable existence we extol Our fathers, your faithful worshippers Must lie uneasy in their graves What dost thou behold Through the atmospheric strata A people in darkness thicker than the bulrushes of _Igodo_ lake Ocean mix of blood and tears Hail and wails of the destitute For greedy sons of Belial Serving their bellies and not us Constrain our destiny This is the cause of your wrath Oh! hearken to our pleas born by the wind Tribal bigotry plagues us Like a rotten ulcer on the dorsum of a diabetic's foot Our stench exposes us to carnivores Please, come to our rescue The die is now cast Strengthen us to reclaim our wastelands To rediscover the unity in WaZoBia May our unborn offspring not remember us for shame *Ise!!!!!
