    I had a good laugh this morning when I saw a video of some Nigerians asked to sing the national anthem and behold various incantations!!! so I thought I share the lyrics!!!                                                  "Arise, O compatriots " Arise, O compatriots, Nigeria's call obey To serve our fatherland With love and strength and faith The labour of our heroes past Shall never be in vain To serve with heart and might One nation bound in freedom, peace and unity.

Poor facilities and amenities Most hotels do not meet up with what they put

The Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport Abuja, Nigeria that was closed due to repair of the run way for six weeks has been declared opened for flights.

Nigerians really appreciate the Ethiopian Government for their great support!
