The Quest He stands aloof in the streets
Gathering all to him it seems
With words as sweet as honey
He convinces them of his journey
And so with praise begins his quest
With words of wisdom at his belt
He sets off without a care
For he knows and had no fear
He sets off to a fearsome land
A land where lions fear to tread
And even eagles fly with dread
For here even the strong lose their head
He summons lightening from the sky
And thunder shakes the earth all day
With words like fire he battles through
With proper planning his dreams come true
And so with joy he ends his quest
Happy that he’s now the best
Triumphant now he journeys home
To the people he once gave hope
His people’s heart gladden with joy
Our hero will save us all
But the words he spoke before
He says he remembers no more
For so the road to power lies
In scheming, forgeries and in lies
For politics is a dirty game
And most who play it have no shame
When will our leaders speak the truth
When will peace and justice rule
When will Nigeria see the light
At the end of a tunnel darker than night
