Nigeria: What they think vs What I think

Share
  • There is no hope for Nigeria
  • And don’t let anybody tell you that
  • Nigeria will rise again
  • Because at the end of the day
  • The tribes will rip each others clothes
  • And I’m not going to lie to myself by saying
  • “There will be peace!!!”
  • So rest assured I have prepared my mind
  • And nothing will ever make me believe
  • The bad governance must go permanently
  • Because no matter what
  • Nigeria is not good enough for anything
  • And I am in no position to trust that
  • The time for change has come
  • Because whenever I look outside, I always think
  • Is Nigeria as dreadful as people say?
