Nigeria,
You are the giant of Africa
The most populous nation in Africa
And the tenth in global population

You re not just big
Nor just heavily populated
Your largeness as a nation
Is also blessed with invaluable resources
Your south is naturally full of oil
Your north is also blessed with numbers of godly-given materials

Go to east and west,
There are a vast number of resources abundantly given by nature
The assets that many envy
Your vegetation is evergreen
Your rain forest is full of tall and rich trees
Your rain season is as accurate as the months of the year
And your dry season is as friendly as Nigerians

You re indeed a blessed nation
You re as well culturally rich
A nation of over 120 million people
And over 250 ethnic groups
With more than 400 different dialects
It is surely an elephantine task
To come together as a nation
With mutual understanding and pleased minds

That is Nigeria!
A nation blessed with humans
That are always ready to prevent inhumanity
A voice to reckon with globally
No wonder world leaders always keep locking at your door
Visit today, visit tomorrow!

Nigeria,
A bright future awaits you
A future full of hope and assurance
A future that will see youths as the leader of tomorrow
When there will be enough food
Enough work, security and educational attainments.
A fruitful future indeed!
