LET US NOT FOLLOW THEIR PATH
Let us not follow their path
Those who took turn to loot this country dry
Laundered monies they will never finish in ten lifetimes
Took education away from public schools and made it exorbitant
Left the masses in the agony of poverty
Denying them the basic amenities
Let us not follow their path
Those who are very insensitive to the plight of the masses
Who after 50 years watch and made Nigeria underdeveloped
Those who love to hear the incessant shout of N.E.P.A whenever power is restored for decades
Cease to do anything that is developmental
Let us not follow their path
Those who made us talk about owning railway after 50 years of independence
When others talk of improving on their present ones
Those who marred agriculture and replaced it with rural urban migration
Let us not follow their path
Those who made suicide an exercise of ease
Youths travel to other lands to sell own kidney for money
Masses roast in flames of petrol they tried to scoop from fallen tanker
Some detonate bombs on self and others
Let us not follow their path
People whose favourite past time is corruption
They attend leaders’ conferences and meeting with no achievement(s) to present
Those who took the patience of Nigerians for granted
Let us not follow their path
Those who have no manifesto(s) and developmental plan
But likes to be in the position of authority
Who made leadership a do or die affair
Playing predator politics
Let us not follow their path
Those who are leaders of regions but like owning homes abroad
Those who refuse to import civilization but import goods
Those who refine our oil outside Nigeria when we own refineries
Let us not follow their path
They have no interest of their own people in mind but incite ethnic and religious violence
They feed from their people’s ignorance
Let us not follow their path
Let us come together as one
Understanding and tolerating our divides
Working towards better tomorrow
Where foreigners will see Nigeria as greener pasture
