In response to the on-going crisis across Nigeria, especially the Middle Belt and the North, a group of Nigerian superstars decided to join forces to deliver this beautiful piece simply titled “A Song For Peace”. The participating artistes include Panam Percy Paul, Onyeka Onwenu, Sammie Okposo, Sunny Neji, Segun Obe, Timi Dakolo, J’odie, among others, making up the multi-generational “Nigerian All Star Ensemble”.
The Peace Song is part of the “Neighbour 2 Neighbour Peace Project” album.
Written by Steve Gukas.
Produced by Wole Oni and Jeremiah Gyang.
Directed by Steve Gukas.
Location: Lagos and Abuja.
This is absolutely lovely!
*O.O*

The Song is Nice but Who are they singing the song for??? Look around and observe what is going on in the country… WE NEED PEACE IN MOST NORTHERN STATES.
James!. James! James! .. How many times have I called you?…No peace in Niger Delta,Lagos state,Oyo state in fact everywhere in Nigeria……Northerners ain't the only trouble makers….
Wow! What a nice song! Its been a while since I've seen some of those musicians. Nice to know they're standing up for a good cause. Practically everybody in that video is a Nigerian musician with a lot of respect. I see this song as one that'll really reach out.
1.GOOD VIDEO,GOOD CONCEPT,GOOD SONG&GOOD IDEA.
2.THE PEOPLE THAT THIS SONG IS MEANT FOR DON'T LISTEN OR HEAR THIS KIND OF MUSIC AND THEY DON'T HEAR ENGLISH.I WAS WAIT TO HEAR INFUSION OF HOW LOCAL DIALECT.
3.THIS IS A HIGH BUDGETED PROJECT,WHERE ARE THE NEW AND YOUNG GENERATION ARTIST(WIZKID,BANKY,ICE PRINCE,WAJE,TU FACE,DBANJ,FLAVOUR,MI E.T.C) THE PEOPLE IN THIS VIDEO ARE SAME OLD ONCE THAT HAVE BEEN SINGING ONE LOVE AND SO ON.FOR THINGS TO CHANGE IN OUR COUNTRY,MAN KNOW MAN NEEDS TO DIE FIRST AND I EVEN SAW ONE ARTIST BACK UP SINGER IN THE VIDEO. EVERY NIGERIAN NEEDS TO FORGET ABOUT THEIR SELF INSTREST AND DO WAT IS RIGHT.
TO ME THE MESSAGE HAVE NOT BEEN PAST.

Lovely….powerful message n nice delivery!
Good Video, Good Message but Music and Melody not to good. They should have broken the thing down proper niaja style and not this foreign stuff they put together. They didnt have to wear native attires, the nativity had to come out of their mouths.
this is a good song for naija to change for good!!!
exactly wht we need…PEACE! nice joint,nice delivary….everything on point…..always stand up 4 a good cause……..
[…] source […]
Gotta love Panam Percy Paul's voice – calm and inspirational.
Never act until you have clearly answered the question: "What happens if I do nothing?" Thanks for doing this … Great Nigeria.
Great music .. someone said the local thing didnt come out ..lol .. am sure you didnt understand what Tosin Martins or Jeremiah were saying towards the end .. Complete song … God bless una hustle … God is able
As far as i'm concerned this song wz sang 4 d entertainment of d elite…..a peace song that wld make any impact in Nigeria shld be really 'local' ving all our dialectz(nt jst d 3 major languagez).Anywayz,this is a nice project….GOD BLESS NIGERIA.PEACE
good music, nice lyrics
No Tubaba for this song? Then this SONG no be song!..This song needs Tuface Idibia badlly, na the kind song wey Tu dey shine be dis…
Nice ensemble tho…
I can't believe how many artist that was missing in this beautiful song.i'm really disappointed wv the like of
2face idibia,d'banj,mi,psquere,wande cole,banky w,flavour etc,the guy could have give more credibility
to the whole stuff.the organizer could have make more effort to reach these artist or are they not NIGERIAN
all the same it was really lovely
where is 2face
As much as i love this stuff,i think is definatly missing something ok.what worth doing is worth doing
well ok.like u 'll expect to see the best of nigerian artist onboard wv this beautiful song.Credit to the ones that partespated in. it though.But the fact is questions 'll still be ask that were is 2face idibia,d'banji,mi,banky w,psqure,9ice,george,wande coooool.with this guys come with CREDIBILITY.
However timi & sammy okposo well done
nice one
I'm proud to be a Nigeria and No place like Home no matter what
this is really hot
nice song, but how does it help the current situation? Im becoming skeptical about all these videos, peace concerts and all. We have a real issue people fail to understand…a song will do very little. maybe they should make the song in more Nigerian languages and play at community radio stations. maybe!
nice music..we need peace in NIGERIA
the song was just boom
As far as I am concerned,this music is just another single put together by some insensitive musicians that are desperate to exploit the current situation in the country to make some money for themselves.Just listen to the whole mess,does this song really have any positive influence on the minds of the so called targeted audience, or does it in anyway address the root cause of our problem,the answer is a big NO!!..We need REAL music by REAL people who clearly understand the plight of the people and who share in it, and not a jamboree put together by a bunch of unserious,insensitive fellows who are even indirectly contributing to the rape of the country,judging by their antecedents.
I once heard a quote "better to be quiet and be viewed as ignorant than to speak and remove all doubt." Think think think think… WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO CREATE AWARENESS TO WHAT IS AFFECTING OUR DEAR COUNTRY? These people love Nigeria and some of them live in Jos where there has been a lot of violence. I want to hear more effective ways. Thank you for your concern for Nigeria.
my song for the year.

The top artiste you'all are asking 4 in dis video are busy waiting 4 their fellow artiste to die b4 they'll come 2geda n sing a tribute song 4 him/her. The idiots are busy collaborating with international artiste to make fame n money n not ready 2 participate in this kind of project,instead of yu guys 2 appreciate the effort of these ones that stOod up to the task rather yu guys are busy condemning em. God punish una idiots,2face wey una dey look 4 shey when he wan marry he ran out of the country n got married n yet here yu are expecting him to participate in this…if yu don't like the effort of these old musician make una go do una own idiots or rather go hug a live transformer…KUDOS to these legends,love you all
