Ibom Connection
Hot afternoon,
The sky rejoices in its brightness
To celebrate your reign.
Calm evening,
The sparkle of lightening gathered
In praise of your beauty.
Every passing day,
Roll of cars, troupes of Okadamen
Beehive of feet…
All add praises to your towering might.
In evergreen pastures,
Species of nature cloths your nakedness
In a combined beauty of flower attires.
Roundabout your enclave
An ounce of nature’s water claps
To chant your victory
As the centre of connection.
Rejoice former Uyo Circuit
For the coming of Ibom Plaza
Has rechristened you – Ibom Connection.
Rejoice! Oh rejoice,
Centre heart of Akwa Abasi Ibom State
For you shall ever stand
As a symbol of unity in our land of promise.
