I'm originally from Cote d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast). I just found this song we sang growing up in Abidjan and you can't imagine my joy tonite on the hills of San Francisco. Love to all my Nigerian brothers and sisters everywhere.

La seule fois où j'ai regardé ce clip, c'était dans les années 90 , à la télévision ( RTI notre télévision nationale ). Quelques semaines plus tard alors que je regardais la télévision avec ma mère, mon père et ma cousine, la même chanson passe à la télé, mais cette fois là, c'est Antoinette Konan qui la chante. Alors que nous écoutions la chanson donc , j'ai fait savoir qu'elle n'était pas d'Antoinette Konan , mais qu'elle appartenait plutôt à une femme Nigeriane, et que j'avais déjà regardé le clip de la version originale. Ils ne m'ont jamais cru et je n'avais aucune preuve ( pas de KZbin, Google,... rien ), et le clip n'est plus jamais passé en ma présence. Aujourd'hui je retrouve mon clip et ma chanson près de 30 ans après.

This song remind's me of our early childhood that we all had a dream of a great and better Nigeria, a time when all tribes and regions lived as one Nigeria until our present witch craft, wicked and heartless politicians came onboard and messed up our future. Ma, may your soul rest in peace. You brought pride to us as a Nation. RIP Ma.

[@TheRealWithOluwaTopmost]

​@@Christy_Essien_IgbokweThought so. Always ever saw the video of her Seoul performance (which she won!) as video for this song on TV. Love love love love her! Always mining her songs as a kid. Those songs! Her voice!!Her acting, wow!! Natural, effortless beauty. Class. Dignity. No negative press about her. Ever. Pure talent, can sing, act and dance. Check out her beautiful shape here. And graceful steps. And then, check out her fiery dance in Tenu Lu Nla decades later. What!!?? And she's not Igbo. So, must've learnt Igbo dance as an adult, married to an Igbo. Yet, that her solo energetic power dance routine is FIRE🔥!! Worthy of an award even today. Continue to rest well ma'am, the forever Lady of Songs. A class act!

[@TheRealWithOluwaTopmost]

In foreign land. US? So, this song was recorded & backed up by whites? Always thought the "Seun Rere" chorus has this tinge of foreigness to it eachI hear it. Now I know why. Deeper respect!! A full backing band😢 of pure whites in a foreign land too!! Deepest respect. But, it should've been out out way back then, to uplift her pedigree so she could personally take her flowers for this feat while she was here. She is still here though. Take your flowers Mama.
