Song of Assurance!

Hey Wafrica!
It's your boy Dominiqueguitars alongside my man Mr Milez!
We bring y'all Greetings from Edo State, Nigeria!

Sometime ago I was surfing the Steemit world and stumbled upon a contest organized by Wafrica, which required contestants to sing a song in their own dialects and of course explain the meaning of the song. It was a very busy period for me, but I had to make out time to join in the contest, hence this video you see here. Although this is just an extract from the main video.
However, this song is done in the Esan language, one of the tribes in Edo State, of southern Nigeria. It's a gospel song that carries great belief and hope.
The meaning, according to just how it is sung, is thus : whether it rains, I have Jesus, whether it's the sunshine, I have Jesus. Whether it rains or the sun shines, I have Jesus forever.

Now, I wish I could have a friend or anyone from any African country sing this song in their own language: like say a South African ,Ghanaian, Cameroonian, Togolese... Just name it, because I believe connecting Africans, and sharing of cultural values is part of the desires of Wafrica.
It's a very short one tho, do enjoy!
Cheers!
