About Nuribanu! Onye Nzof'ta Anyi Abiama
"Nuribanu! Onye Nzof'ta Anyi Abiama" is a vibrant Christmas anthem that calls the whole world to rejoice at the birth of the Savior. The title translates to a joyful declaration that our Redeemer has come. From the opening notes, the choir paints a vivid picture of the Nativity, singing of the bright star shining over Bethlehem and guiding the way to the humble manger where the newborn King lies.
The arrangement builds into a lively, rhythmic celebration, moving from reverent solos inviting us to bow before Christ, to an energetic call-and-response. In a wonderful moment of unity, the song specifically calls out the diverse peoples of Nigeria—the Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo, Benin, Ijaw, Berom, Igala, Calabar, and Urhobo—urging every nation and tribe to bring their drums, sing new songs, and join the heavenly chorus. It is a perfect, high-energy piece for a Christmas concert or the festive season, bringing the joy of the Nativity directly into the local cultural experience.
