Best Poem for Akwa Ibom our AkwaAbasi Ibom State

Way back I wrote some nature poetry collection for my beloved State. Akwa Ibom State is the land of promise, rich in many natural mineral resources. Feel free to share in her joy.

Akwa Ibom

Our land of promise

In you we found our fulfillment.

Our precious land

That flows with milk and honey

In abundant deposit of black-gold

Are the heritage of your soil rewarded.

23rd day of September, 1987 was your birth

Even before that day, you were alive

In the heart of the people that you endeared

With the hospitality that you enthrone.

Land where the swing of hips are your glory

Your dialects a pride in the mouth of your own

How your delicacies are a delight in celebration

Your land, I am proud to be a descendant.

Land of the earliest intellectuals

In abundance you have produced pacesetters

That your land and beyond celebrates.

AkwaAbasi Ibom

Home to the Ibibio’s,

Home to the Annang’s,

Home to the Ukpabang’s…

Home to all who bears your root

For in peaceful co-existence you reign.
