PROUD NIGERIA AT 60

“Arise, O compatriots”
Our motherland at 60

Come, join me, and celebrate her freedom

With love, strength, and faithfulness

In peace and harmony, oneness and honesty to grow!

Hunger, deprived the citizens right

Who will rescue our land?

The people cry.

With the power of freedom,

She raises a voice to say NO to slavery

We are proud Nigerians, happy at 60

Our motherland, the land most blessed, black nation

THE FACT; It sounds a bit exaggerated

A country regarded as the Africa power horse

A country blessed with an abundance of resources

A country known for its vast hydrocarbons wealth

A billion barrels of proven oil resources we owned

Little wonder we were once called,

The happiest people on earth!

Her mountains and valley endowed with natural minerals

A nation of fertile soil we are gifted

We are gifted and talented

We have a sense of oneness

We are very optimistic

We are rich in culture

We are dodged, happy and resilient

We have flaws, but, in a special way

We have God at the centre of our lives

A country of great beauty we have.

One person is nothing, two people are the nation

The mass, the crowd, the leaders, are the nation

To our President, we hail

To our governors, we hail

For serving our country, the mass wished.

Upon our dreams, we give up not

As long as there is breathe in us,

There is hope Nigeria!

To our motherland I raise a voice, to sing;

OH!

There is no place like home

We are proud Nigerians!!!
