Now that Nigeria is 55!

Nigeria is 25; the odds we did survive; Arise salute the nation; Come join the celebration; A people united will never fall; The sun will rise and the rain will fall; On our land vast and mighty, richly blessed by the Almighty, like bees in a hive … Nigeria is 25!” (Bongos Ikwue, 1985).

Thirty years ago, this theme song reverberated on our airwaves in celebration of 25 years of the existence of our great country, Nigeria. Indeed, “we have survived many odds”. From the Civil War between 1967 and 1970; the Boko Haram insurgency since 2002 to the prediction by the United States of America Intelligence arm in 2005 that Nigeria would cease to be a nation state in 2015, and so on … And now, Nigeria is 55!
