Mera Owili releases live rendition of her hit single NANA-OWEI MBANA.
Nana-owei Mbana is an ijaw phrase which means “God thank you”.
Nana-owei mbana is a song birthed from a heart of thanksgiving. Sometimes as humans, we get so disappointed and ungrateful to God when we pray for material things like houses and cars and we don’t receive.
We fail to realise that everything we truly need in life, God has actually given to us FOR FREE and so we should say Nana-owei Mbana” in gratitude to God all the days of our lives.
