They act one way,
But reveal another,
They say good today,
But really do not bother;

Thiers is a milky mirror,
Reflecting good intentions,
Whereas behind the door,
Lay unimaginable tribulations;

Once out of the womb,
The state clothes poverty,
People pay their way to the tomb,
Accompanied by all sorts of uncertainty;

Thus empty husks await,
Liberation at the borders,
Stuck here, tolerating what fate,
Over there, better opportunity reorders.
The Nigeria state enables extortion, regression, repression, depression, oppression, disillusion, suppression and overall backwardness.

The vast majority of people in Nigeria wish they were not born there, many claim they love the country but are actually stuck there in hypocrisy.

If offered an opportunity, many will denounce citizenship and announce loyalty to the better climes even if he'll offered any of such.
