Baskadia

A country of different people

different tribes with different cultures

different states with different political parties

fighting and killing one another

where the rich and higher people

oppress the poor and get richer

Travel out and obtain good things of life

even the president is in London

They share ballot funds

and workers' salaries are not paid

Government officials send their kids abroad

Loot to keep them in luxury

Where the ignorance want Biafria

the North wants Igbos' exit

the Yoruba are silent

A fight is being Cooked

A country which our past heroes

fought to obtain with Peace

our present leaders destroy because of greed and lust of power

Why can't we love one another?

let's join efforts and fight

to bring back the unity and peace

which we have enjoyed in the past

Our country is known for peace let's keep the green, white, green flying

let's treat one another as God decreed

and peace will be all ours.
