Why are we really deceiving ourselves, we have been "brainwashed" all throughout our days in school with so many fake things, for the scope of today, we will be looking at nigeria's national anthem as a case study.

Arise O compatriots, nigeria's call obey,
(hahaha, who are the compatriots? Obj, buhari, ibb, muritala mohamed? Which call are they obeying? Looting I guess. What of the "yoots" shouting Igbos and aboki?

To serve our fatherland with love and strength and faith,
(like seriously? Like the way murtala mohamed butchered 500 Igbos of Asaba, that was how he was serving his "fatherland" with love and strength, OK)

The labour of our heroes past shall never be in vain
(which heroes' labour? Oh, I remember, gowon committing genocide riding on the back of awo)

To serve with heart and might, one nation bound in freedom, peace and unity.
(the person that inserted this verse is a legendary Irony icon, who have served this evil forest with heart? You say one nation? When something as little a movie industry has 3 separate industries,"nollywood, yoruba movies, kannywood" running parallel. Moving away from that, which freedom was the person talking about? People go on peaceful protest and gathering and are MASSACRED in cold blood, as for the peace= religious violence from muslims via Terror groups, maitasine, boko haram, etc. Unity? Dont even try to sugarcoat it because there is none.

So to every phrase and clause in the anthem is the complete opposite and blatant lies.

The national anthem is ironical

I pledge to Nigeria my Country
To be faithful, loyal and honest
To serve Nigeria with all my strength
To defend her unity
And uphold her honour and glory,
So help me God!

What a miserable, disgusting, unfortunate pack of lies...
And this is what we are indoctrinated into believing from childhood and some never get to think and know the truth for themselves...
