NIGERIA’S TRIPLE TROUBLE.
(NSOGBU ATỌ NKE NÀIJIRIA).
1. NIGERIA IS SINKING.
(NÀIJIRIA NA-ACHỌ IKPU)
At 65 Nigeria never lived in peace
Nigerians are still living in piece
Nigeria has three organic tribes
Coexistence not without diatribes
Nigeria has three organic languages
Speaking any cause deep cleavages
She practices three major religions
None salvaged her 3 organic regions
Nigerians need national reorientation
We need binding, national cohesion
Nigeria needs global reintegration
We are in for deadly fittest survival
Nigeria needs viral economic revival
Nigerians need robust life renewal
Nigerians have seen life denials
Nigerians in a mess, in life trials.
Live danger, live danger is in loom
May we not see another Civil Doom
Nigeria needs surgical operation
To cut off her cancerous tumors
Cut off Coupists treacherous rumors
To cut off Bandits’ national tension
Release MNK from Sokoto detention
Promote peace and national healings
Counter B/Haram, herdsmen killings
Be Thee Hailed for Noble Dealings.
My pure vision, my pure saying
There shouldn’t be more delaying
I saw Nigeria abysmally sinking
My pure seeing not mere thinking
Nigeria sinking very deep into abyss
Nigerians all know what is amiss
Is on Tripod not hanging on moon
Nigeria may be foregone so soon
Needs urgent organic restructuring
Am here professing and lecturing
That Nigeria will be forever gone
If something very drastic not done.
Nigeria needs sovereign conference
She needs constitutional conference
Secure her future, future references
We need clean political engineering
No tribe will ever be domineering
We need lasting political culture
Gone will be one-sided presidency
Nigeria needs rotational presidency.
Secure her future, future references
We need clean political engineering
No tribe will ever be domineering
We need lasting political culture
Gone will be one-sided presidency
Nigeria needs rotational presidency.

2. NIGERIA IS BLAZING.
(ỌKỤ NA-AGBA NÀIJIRIA)
Who has set Nigeria ablaze?
What really set Nigeria ablaze?
Are Northern leaders not our bane?
Do they behave as if much insane?
Nigeria ruined much, in much ruins
North’s born to rule kept us in ruins
They ruined us 46 off our 65 years
They exhibited much crooked ways
Leaving us in much agonizing days
They weaponized our own money
They are true masters of hegemony
Poor masses live in very much pains
Everyone is in real economic chains
These our own slave master’s gains
North sets Nigeria very much ablaze.
Nigeria seems real a wagon band
Are we now inside Jagaban’s band?
Jaguar power Jagaban cleaning up
Nononsense Jagaban don’t mess up
He is distilling up endless corruption
Military want yet another disruption
Coupists want to draw Nigeria back
They want Nigerians always in lack
Military are experts in gross misrule
Military tag a civilian as bloody fool
Nigeria a funny military band wagon
When will this our doom be gone?
The land has very much injury
Everyone below in much penury
The land has no social justice
Everybody worships injustice
Black color is white in Nigeria
White color is black in Nigeria
Up above nothing but corruption
Down below nothing but corruption
Nigeria is a super disgusting place
Has World’s best disgusting Palace.
We have abundant human resources
We have abundant natural resources
Nigeria is a richly blessed country
She ought to be highly rated country
Nigeria was once had an oil boom
Nigeria seems forever in oil doom
Oil production sets Nigeria ablaze
Religious bigotry sets Nigeria ablaze
Oil is forcefully drilled by the North
Religious bigotry practiced by North
Oil stealing inflames North’s passion
Religiosity inflames North’s passion
Benue forcefully swims in her blood
Platue forcefully swims in her blood
Borno is very nicely blazing much
Zamfara is very nicely blazing much
Kaduna is very busy blazing much
Katsina is really busy blazing much
Kano risky and highly inflammable
Bauchi risky and highly inflammable
Taraba risky and already in flames
Kebbi risky and already in flames
Adamawa is blazing very very much
Yobe is also blazing very very much
Sokoto is very good in much penury
Jigawa is very good in much penury
Ill gotten gains earns North’s pains
South survive with left over remains,
Man stealing another man’s treasure
Usually earns unwanted displeasure.
3. ISN’T NIGERIA A FAILED STATE?
(NÀIJIRIA Ọ CHỌRỌ KA AKỤWASỊA?)
Nigeria has a chequered history
Her long history never a ghost story
From 1914 conception to inception
Nigeria is a raped, forced contraption
A contradiction, a contra distinction
Preaches peace and unity in diversity
Sows seeds of disparity and disunity
In 1967-1970 fought deadly civil war
Still fighting a bitter economic war
Still fighting a bitter political war
Won’t the Poor cry more and more?
Wide is gap between Rich and Poor
Gap between rich and poor very deep
Climbing Heaven upward very steep
Ruling class make much more gains
Ruled class make much more pains
Sliding in abyss in pleasant fastness
Few survive with unpleasant fitness
Believes Christian, Moslem religions
Has East, North and West Regions
Practices deceit in veiled falsehood
Failed in having spirit of Nationhood
Expert at pretentious brotherhood
Sold truth, no honesty no credibility
Sold xter, competence, responsibility
Leaders believe in squander mania
Leaders suffer from megalomania
Governance cost is world’s highest
Huge fortune to keep those in power
Cost less to keep the poor in squalor
Her Almajeri’s living is world’s lowest
Poor die much in economic abyss.
