honestly this song is making alot of sense , Food is the cheapest thing in europe and shelter but in nigeria to eat good food you most be rich too bad, see protest and this stupid politicians come uk to watch EPL i swear i saw one in stadium u wont believe it,
@TheDavidedmond You are right Mr David.. Nigerians are cowards and only shows There strength outside there country and inside nigeria they are just like dead and dumb
@TheDavidedmond chill ok nt all nigerians are d same wi jst hav a majority of selfish bastards in dat country............even mi am nt all dat happi wit evertin bhut remember good things start to happen we yu appreciate wat yu hav first ( Gov. Fashola n sum others)
To those outside the country.. Lets all go back home and change the system. Its just too sad. I'll go back after school. If we all just keep watching from here, things no go better for Naija. There is still hope!
I strongly believe the definite change we pray for will come from those who have left the country for obvious reasons. Those educated from developed countries who have experienced and observed efficient management of resources, and the dedication to the well being of the common citizen will be the ones to make it happen. Unfortunately some are giving up hope.
@y384 U re so right, ''Those who will free their people from slavery must not be slaves themselves,they must be free men'' . Nigerians inDiaspora have a huge role to play in Helping Nigeria out of its mess,Thts why it saddens me when I see Nigerians inDiaspora refusing to come back home to Nigeria, U cant Effect change from Outside , u need to be in to effect change.
We must think beyond just going Back home to Invest or Live a good life ,we must look to taking over goverment legitimately
the problem in nigeria is the mentality. When corruption was in its infant stage back then in the political arena the successors of the previous government officials believed they must get their own portion. This mentality has caused a ripple affect that has penetrated the nigerian society. Citizens look to the government to foster order, social equity, and social and economic development. If they see corruption the is no trust, they will do their own.
Nobody wants to die but everyone wants to go to Heaven...It means we have to fight to remove the so called bad leaders with whatever means we can..which may require some of those bad leaders fighting back and eventually some of us dying..but they cant defeat us if we stand together..We need to stop calling God to come fight our battle, because he has given us enough weapons for the battle..look at our educated youths loitering about..look at our farm lands wastin..Like they say ONLY GOD CAN HELP
Nice music bro, the Nigeria so called leader within the corridor of power should all have there heads examined, soonest it will all come to an end, we shall definitely give them what they all deserve. Please sing more on Nigeria issue, keep it up bro
the word "poverty" shld not exit in the 9jerian dictionary if only we knew our potentials. our foreign consulates abroad are meant to be over crowded people seeking 9jerian visas daily if only we had the right govt to transform our enormous state wealth into high standards of living for its citizenery. If a country as poor as the Ukraine can have housing, water, light all year round for the poorest of the poor then wetin dey happen 9ja?
this video is a wake up call for we Nigerians,i'm tired of staying outside & nigeria itself is not a going place for now......it's only God that can save us from our Bad Leaders bcos they are still the same set of People rulling us since we gained Independence from Britain,it was just revolving around them,it's only God intervention that can lead us thru..........Eko Onibaje,100% gbosa for SAN Batunde Raji Fashola,more grease to ur elbow.
omg..Eldee just won my heart with this won...i dont usually cry cos of songs but this sure brought tears to my eyes...Some of us shld be grateful for the little we have and seek ways to help others out..soo touching
i dey cry for my country,even malaysia self,their citizen is more comfortable to compare nigeria,sometimes we nigerian ask ourselves which day our own country go be like this,even na gud road,electricity,hospital,and gud water and housing no more we ask.
very excellent song and video by eldee. i also believe the solution to nigeria's problem isn't rocket science at all and i hope to be one of the people to change nigeria for the better
Nigeria has no business being a poor nation. Our leaders past and present failed us woefully. Makes me very angry. They've forced most of us to remain in the western world dreaming of returning to Naija.
@3689powerman I feel the same way all the time dude, we need to work together. Our youths really need to get together and do something. We need to take our stand in this world!!!!!!! :@
wat d heck is debotoc and all d critics saying?LD aint comparing naija to u.s, hes just making his own view heard and understable for pple who dont understand d msg behind lyrics by comparing naija to u.s. Yet u query! ish!
These songs don't attack the problem and put the real problem in perspective. It's overarching and general. If you speak like you are in it for helping people then you have put things into an historical, political and economic context. Eldee I feel you but do your research and understand that Africa cannot follow the footsteps of U.S. to sustain itself. People do your research and understand our history and realize it has to do with more than just politicians. There is alot to it.
a lot like what? before you start quoting ancient history of colonialism and 400 years of slavery please realize that this is NOW. we are already here and we need to make the best out of the situation. no context can justify the injustice of greedy politicians and leaders.
i just pray that the new generation can be better than those assholes. so that we can teach them how to love a country. the most annoying part is that those morons travel out always so they know that they are raping the country and its future. nice contribution eldee.
Thanks eldee for this contribution. even though the problem is not with us the listeners but the leaders who are mostly dumbs and won't have time to listen to this song . all what they invest their time in is lootting the treasuries of the nation , diverting it to foreign accounts , organizing bash here and there for themselves and their allieds to lavish the money which they don't know how to spend anymore as it has grown and overflowing in their numerous accounts.
Fellow Africans, why do so many of us curse the effect but nourish the cause? For it says: "As long as you keep a person down, some part of you has to be down there to hold him down, so it means you cannot soar as you otherwise might." ~ Marian Anderson.
That's the problem in our leadership, all over Africa.
na true yan be that bro. them think say we no get sense but make me yan you.....we get sense pass them but them dom form frat and still dey initiate their pikin dem . they no wan stop. the evil dey sweet dem. like phero, them hearts no know God and them no get compassion. phero even better pass them sake of say him dey only dey bad to the Isrealites cos them be slaves. but we na pure 9ja as such, we no deserve this.
Eldee, pls keep yarning...i will yarn in my own little way. if we all yarn, speak out and act, our condition in Nigeria will be better. Nice song...thumbs up!
Broda na true ooooooooh. Make you tell them. but na that monkey when leave office last year na him follow couse am. God please help 9ja. anyway i still miss 9ja.
Guy! I feel u Eldee! U really speak ur mind 4 dis video. I luv u men! Na ur craze sweet pass! Continue 2 speak ur mind jare! We need more 9ja pple like you! Ride on!
it's very funny when i hear and see the slogan proudly nigerian....i wonder what's there to be proud of...is it the high level of corruption by our so called leaders..only if people that shout proudly nigerian can come abroad to Uk, or canada or Us..then they will know that they are actually ''suffering and smiling'' jus like baba fela said...
that was a good song, i whish our goverment wil watch, listing and feel the passion in it but that will not stop us from being nigeria's no matter how bad it is there is no were like home, luv you all and GOD bless.
i feel u eldee, there is no reason 9ja shouldnt be like yankee cos we have all it takes. if only we could stand up to our rights like Argentina did few years back .....but who will be the first to throw the stone when the average man on the street is afraid of death? it's sad and pathetic.
if all the rich politicians\businessmen in naija would stop stealing oil money, building huge mansions, and sending their children to schools overseas and actually use that money responsibily by maintaining quality roads, electricity, and water/sewer treatment facilities, then you would have a 1st world nation in western Africa with plenty of jobs. Very sad indeed.
i think embezlment is a crime that should be level to murder, its pure genocide. how can our leaders see this picture and still sleep at night. knowing that, what they are doing is killing there people
u are the most ignorant person i can ever imagine. how can you say this things don't happen. i think your folks is one of them. if they don't change na concience go kill una. if you get any.
when nigerians stop celebrating corrupt leaders and start killing them then change will come. nigeria are too scared if we start mass protest and demand our right to electricity,water,sound educational system then we will change if not the thousands of years to come the black man will still be under. the old guides must die first .
Is is high time Nigerians stood up against corruption and oppression. A government that was never elected but ony selected. I Have a video of Osun State selection but is not working on youtube cos is too long. GOd dey.
This is the message u should be sending across not beefing Mfon Essien(Freestlye). Good one Dawg. This is the real essence of music. Thumps up Lucknan.
People in this world we think we are so acomplished as humans when we can't figure out simple things like sharing, there is more than enough in the world for everyone FACT:,FOOD GOES OF ON SHELFS WHILE BABIES DIE FROM HUNGER WHERE IS THE SENSE IN THAT, why because of the illumiati (leaders & governments), greedy people who have sold their soul ot the devil, oh ma sha,oh one step at a time just try your best to make a differnce,day to day.
I love it. Good to see conscious thought on the net. Elibrowns you are right. Imagine. These people (over the past two generations) have had the benefit of seeing the fruit of global developments (sewers, water, roads, medical healthcare, employment) yet rather than taking these ideas and implementing them, they invest their money in other countries- Dubai, London, New York - money in intl a/c-Swiss, Cayman, Bahamas. We need a Rawlings/Mao leader to build and develop.
psycho selfish leaders up. In Africa as a whole, we shouldn't cos the guy sang abt naija means that shit is happening only in naija, it all around Africa so stand up now or never..
I see change in d nearest future. No lose hope bruvs. Our politicians are all prevaricators and congenital idiots that travel abroad to treat fever. That ODB called Obj deserves a 2nd term in kirikiri. Inshallahu e go better!
anyone that follows nigerian politics can see an end to the antics of the corrupt e-------lites.today it is niger delta militants.these resistance will spread until the government deceides to stamp out corruption and proceed on the part of good governance.the resistance is slowly building...just look!!
Come to UAE and see how many towers of 50-60 storey that belong to nigerians politicians. all their inlaws, brothers, sisters are all here. they see d way every thing dey work here but they ignored rather they prefered to contribute to the development of another man's country and return home to stop okada people from operating. Imagin spending $16 billion in power sector in just 8 years without even seeing d light. ohh God don't let them finish this money before i return home.
what can we do,is only God that will save us in Nigeria,because may looking at the situation of things,it is becoming worst everyday,the rich are getting richer while the poor are becoming more poorer.God will console us one day.pele.poison NKOO,i don't know where to start.dooooooooooooooooooo
the main problem with naija is da size and da mind set dat corruption is ok ........rome wasnt built in one day ..it will take a while but have we even started tryin to make a change??????
i wan cry, nigeria has a very big problem and i think i know d solution to our problems. all our ex, gov,presidents,ministers etc, infact who ever tht once upon a time run public office should be kill. kalas. one love Eldee. we dey feel u from d middle east. i need people like u to execute judgement to dose so called politicians.
This ought to reach the very doors that brings the sung evil upon the Nigerian popullace..
Amongst the ruling sect are positive minded few, lets reach these sycophants thru them... Let all who have such audience as our privileged brother Eldee, implore others to view and see this truth... when we reach others and sensitize them, over time change will come and then we accept less of such madness barraged our way by these greedy corrupt bunch...
He is right all the way , we need to all come together and clean out this mess if not we are heading into a drastic collapse ! Our leaders ARE COMPLETE BABOONS nothing short of ANIMALS
the song is sick,is gud to yarn the truth,becuz the govment in nigeria are to corrupt,still this song will not change anything,but is gud to speak the truth,eldee you r good,
bros yarning will drive some of us to do what the cowards can't achieve.u should praise him for what he is doing.he could have done his song praising yahoo or 419
we nid more song lyk this GOD kmws songs bite more.if we keep talkin about them fake ass govt change wil come.all ma political science students we gat to act mak a change 4 the better.GOD bless y'all. EL DEE great song.
tears rolled down my cheeks when i saw this video the fist time,hope our govt.will one day hear the cry of nigerians.i feel ur pain eldee,nice video!!!!!!!!!
u can't imagine it. i just came back from naija. no light, no water. in this new millenium. bad roads, smelling gutters, armed robbery. dang. i'm so happy i left when i did. tufia!!!
lanre dabiri... eldee.... you're just a genius, africa's puff daddy,. you came from trybesmen, you made hits, you were extremely successful, you came to atlanta, and shock your fans here in the U.S,.. you deserve an award for all you've done [especially for this song], i love you to death man!, you are really the CHAMPION
man, this touches my heart, my heart goes out to the poorest in naija. Why are we naija people so unwilling to put pressure on our leaders. God has called us in general several times in the bible to stand up for the weak and lowly in our societies but we just ignore the bible we even call the poor people "omo-ita's". On the day of judgement God won't let us go scot free.
AMAZING PRODUCTION AND LYRICS. Its amazing how our leaders come to yanki and see how beautiful it is and not a single thought creeps into them about how they can make naija better, what a shame.
True song for the recent uprising. Sad...
For the Youruba language at 4:13
"O ma se, O ma se
O ma se, O ma se
Ilu ta gbe ta ti n gbadun tele
lawa d' eni to toro je"
Translates to:
"Its a pity, Its a pity.
the country that once basked in abundance,
now we are beggars"

when nigerians stop celebrating corrupt leaders and start killing them then change will come. nigeria are too scared if we start mass protest and demand our right to electricity,water,sound educational system then we will change if not the thousands of years to come the black man will still be under. the old guides must die first .

People in this world we think we are so acomplished as humans when we can't figure out simple things like sharing, there is more than enough in the world for everyone FACT:,FOOD GOES OF ON SHELFS WHILE BABIES DIE FROM HUNGER WHERE IS THE SENSE IN THAT, why because of the illumiati (leaders & governments), greedy people who have sold their soul ot the devil, oh ma sha,oh one step at a time just try your best to make a differnce,day to day.

I love it. Good to see conscious thought on the net. Elibrowns you are right. Imagine. These people (over the past two generations) have had the benefit of seeing the fruit of global developments (sewers, water, roads, medical healthcare, employment) yet rather than taking these ideas and implementing them, they invest their money in other countries- Dubai, London, New York - money in intl a/c-Swiss, Cayman, Bahamas. We need a Rawlings/Mao leader to build and develop.

Come to UAE and see how many towers of 50-60 storey that belong to nigerians politicians. all their inlaws, brothers, sisters are all here. they see d way every thing dey work here but they ignored rather they prefered to contribute to the development of another man's country and return home to stop okada people from operating. Imagin spending $16 billion in power sector in just 8 years without even seeing d light. ohh God don't let them finish this money before i return home.

This ought to reach the very doors that brings the sung evil upon the Nigerian popullace..
Amongst the ruling sect are positive minded few, lets reach these sycophants thru them... Let all who have such audience as our privileged brother Eldee, implore others to view and see this truth... when we reach others and sensitize them, over time change will come and then we accept less of such madness barraged our way by these greedy corrupt bunch...

man, this touches my heart, my heart goes out to the poorest in naija. Why are we naija people so unwilling to put pressure on our leaders. God has called us in general several times in the bible to stand up for the weak and lowly in our societies but we just ignore the bible we even call the poor people "omo-ita's". On the day of judgement God won't let us go scot free.
