If Nigeria was a man
He would have been a rugged man
Born to the streets of gangastarism
To inhale some whitish powder from his nose

If Nigeria was a man
He would have been a rapist
Taking turns on teens
Like waiting for his turn in an ATM que

If Nigeria was a man
He would have been the kingpin of kidnapers in the East West road along Elele axis

If Nigeria was a man
He would have been
A dreaded political thug
Whose gun sat on our peace
And made us slaves in our land
For our votes are torn like a piece of paper prepared for some weeds

If Nigeria was a man
He would have been a uniform man
Clothed with cloths of bribery to collect fifty naira at each junction

If Nigeria was a man
He would have been a PHCN officer who flashes light like torchlight
Yet collects bags of cash for bill
And if Nigeria was a man
He would have been a mace snatcher!
