So may he also go
And the people shall say amen
Our honourable thief
And the people shall say amen.
Who stole power by fraud
And junketed to far off chimes
And the people shall say amen
We remember his own today
And the people shall say amen
Cynic criminals in power
And the people shall say amen
“Shoot them at sight”
And the people shall say amen
Increase their pain by the fuel hikes
And the people shall say amen
No salaries for teachers
And the people shall say amen
Thousand graduates in the streets
And the people shall say amen
ASUU strikes is a norm
And the people shall say amen
For the bad road in town
And the people shall say amen
And the hospitals ill-equipped
And the people shall say amen
If Abacha is a thief
And the people shall say amen
So is all that sat with him
And the people shall say amen
May our Mr. President
Go to jail
For being rude to journalists
And the people shall say amen
When his tenure shall elapse
May they all rest in jail
And the people shall say amen.
