Why Is It That Nigerian Presidents Don't Say "GOD BLESS NIGERIA"? by Nasa28(m): 6:29pm On Dec 24, 2016
I have come to notice that many (if not all) Nigeria Presidents; both past and present do not end their speeches with "GOD BLESS NIGERIA " like their US counterparts.


Here are brief excerpts from the ends of those speeches




Barack Obama, 2012


"We live in the greatest nation on Earth. Thank you America. God bless you. God bless these United States."






Barack Obama, 2008[/b]


"Thank you, God bless you, and may God bless the United States of America."


George W. Bush, 2004


"I am eager for the work ahead. God bless you, and may God bless America."


George W. Bush, 2000


"The presidency is more than an honor, it is more than an office. It is a charge to keep, and I will give it my all. Thank you very much, and God bless America."


Bill Clinton, 1996


"I am more grateful than I can say. You have given me an opportunity and a responsibility that comes to few people. I will do my best. And together we will, we will build that bridge to the 21st century. Thank you, goodnight and God bless America."


Bill Clinton, 1992


"Together we can do it. Together we can make the country that we live in everything it was meant to be. I still believe in a place called hope. God bless America. Thank you all."


George H.W. Bush, 1988


"Thank you New Hampshire. Thanks for everything, and God bless America. Thank you all very much. Thank you. Thank you all."

we must not copy everything, but I import good things.... same way many of us are struggling with their accent because it sounds good.

anyway, its good we pray to the maker always ....
unless we believe in him not.
