Yeah,
today
the
city
stops
to
listen
For
the
man
of
the
people
Kalejaiye
Adesina
Monsuru
We
celebrate
your
greatness
today
Listen
close
From
the
streets
of
Ogijo
to
the
halls
of
power
You
bloom
like
a
flower
in
the
quiet
hour
The
Mayor
rises
with
the
morning
sun
Your
work
for
the
people
has
only
just
begun
There
is
no
one
quite
like
you
on
this
land
With
a
generous
heart
and
a
helping
hand
When
the
road
was
dark
you
provided
the
light
And
kept
the
future
burning
very
bright
Oh
Kalejaiye,
today
we
crown
your
day
The
years
will
smile
and
clear
the
clouds
away
May
the
heavens
keep
you
strong
and
true
With
blessings
falling
down
like
morning
dew
Oh
Kalejaiye,
the
leader
we
embrace
May
grace
and
honor
lead
your
steady
pace
Baba
Adeen,
the
pillar
of
the
town
You
wear
the
wisdom
like
a
golden
crown
From
the
Balogun
stool
to
the
hearts
of
the
youth
You
always
stand
firm
for
the
path
of
truth
Your
mother
Nuratu,
a
light
in
the
dark
She
kindled
the
fire
and
she
fanned
the
spark
May
she
see
the
fruits
of
the
seeds
she
sowed
As
you
walk
proud
down
this
noble
road
Oh
Kalejaiye,
today
we
crown
your
day
The
years
will
smile
and
clear
the
clouds
away
May
the
heavens
keep
you
strong
and
true
With
blessings
falling
down
like
morning
dew
Oh
Kalejaiye,
the
leader
we
embrace
May
grace
and
honor
lead
your
steady
pace
May
your
children
shine
like
the
stars
in
the
night
May
your
path
remain
constant,
may
your
future
be
bright
We
pray
for
the
years
that
are
coming
ahead
With
plenty
of
joy
and
the
bounty
that
is
spread
No
enemy
shall
prosper,
no
shadow
shall
fall
Because
the
Lord
is
the
one
who
will
answer
the
call
So
raise
up
your
glass
to
the
Mayor
we
know
Watching
the
legacy
continue
to
grow
From
Ogijo
onwards,
the
fame
is
spread
wide
With
the
people
of
the
city
standing
by
your
side
Monsuru,
continue
to
lead
with
your
heart
You
played
your
role
well,
you
mastered
the
art
Another
year
added
to
the
book
of
your
life
Free
from
the
struggle,
free
from
the
strife
Oh
Kalejaiye,
today
we
crown
your
day
The
years
will
smile
and
clear
the
clouds
away
May
the
heavens
keep
you
strong
and
true
With
blessings
falling
down
like
morning
dew
Oh
Kalejaiye,
the
leader
we
embrace
May
grace
and
honor
lead
your
steady
pace
Long
life
to
the
Mayor
Prosperity
to
the
family
Keep
shining,
Kalejaiye
Adesina
Monsuru
Ogijo
stands
with
you
We
celebrate
you
today (
