This is the concluding part of the poem. To understand the flow, read Love Song(1).I love this country, but hate our leaders' misadventure in the project called Nigeria.
Nigeria,
Giant among giants;
In your current despair,
I love you,
I adore you.
Nigeria,
Though gang-raped daily,
discarded like broken china,
I treasure you.
Nigeria,
land of my progenitors,
Decked,and mesmerized
with glittering garlands,
I genuflect in awe
At your staying power.
Nigeria,
amidst your bleedings,
amidst your pains,
amidst your battered womanhood,
I love you, I idolize you.
