  Independence/freedom is a very sweet thing when it comes to those that knows what it means to them, to be free from the hands of another and to be able to work independently on your own, is a blessing. Many have worked towards it for so many years; some has attained it and moved on independently very well on their own to the benefit and improvement of themselves, while others have attained and still yet to be free from the spirit of being dependent.
  In 1898, the British governments establish and maintain a colonial state in Nigeria, and Sir Frederick Lord Lugard became the   High Commissioner of Nigeria and his wife gave the name Nigeria after the amalgamation of the two pectetorates in 1914. For some years, the Nigeria masses undergo some sort of degrading, racial discrimination in employment and so many more, Nigerians decided to fight for their right and to be free from the hands of the British colonial, In the likes of our noble and proud brothers; Nnamdi Azikiwe, H.O.Davies, Herbert Macaulay, Obafemi Awolowo, Kwame Nkrumah etc mobilized the masses for support, during the struggle for independence, so many lost their lives in this struggle and at last it came to our hands, freedom at last.
  1st October, 1960, that date will forever remain in the heart of many Nigerians, the day after the long fought war for independence and freedom came to our hands after being under the British colonial for 62 years. It is now 50 years since that faithful year when we got our independence, we Nigerians, lets be sincere and ask ourselves are we truly independent? Or are we still leaving in the shadows of our colonial masters, I must say that we, our government has not made any significant impact in our communities, economy, security, global recognition and so on. Look at our neighboring country Ghana, we are bigger than they are, they respect us (Nigeria) but when it comes to economy I will say they are better than we, our citizens are moving down there to reside, and work etc and we call our self the “Giant of Africa”.
  This song goes out to all Nigerians at our faithful day and let’s remembers the suffering our fore-fathers went through for us to get this independence, let’s not make their sacrifice be for nothing.
Wish way Nigerians x2
Wish way to go
I love my father land
I want to know
Wish way Nigerians
We are heading to.
