The Omoluabis have given this nation too much. Unlike some clowns who have contributed nada but believe that they deserve all from the country. Even the Benin people will make presidency before them. Blessed be Nigeria. If you hate Nigeria so much, go to Ukraine.

You suppose to hide your stretched marks face in shame, the national anthem that says all your useless hero past shall not been in vain, even your hero past and your living heroes are all burning in hell

Obasanjo's Disco Anthem. Far below the original anthem in depth, rhyme and content. Nigeria has been on the sliding train since the anthem was introduced in 1977 or so, because of the lies it portrays. Nigeria has no heroes at any time of its history. Everyone of the so-called heroes minded his own interests, forming patriot. Strange things do happen in Nigeria. Ever heard of a National Anthem composed by FIVE people?

Oversabi people who invented anthem, did it for their pocket and not for u and me. Useless anthem that is contrary and contradicts itself. In reality, there is tribalism, hatred, bigotry, religious intolerance, oppression fuelled by d gofament.
what's this?

see the last sentence of national anthem,,,,one nation bound(tied) In freedom, peace and unity.... Analyze if that is practical of Nigeria. Is there peace in Nigeria, is there unity among the tribes, zones, Does Nigeria have heroes? The so called heroes served their personal interests and those from their families/tribes, not generality of the people.heroes my foot

I still prefer the old anthem to the new one. They brought the new because an oyinbo woman composed the old one.
