Poem
What has become of Nigeria? What has become of my countryhome? What has become of those children littered there? Is everyone there still alive or all are dead of lassa? What has become of her economic that once glowed? I seek to know the condition of my mother, Nigeria; Is she in the hospital to be treated or has everyone Abandoned her to perish in the darkness? Which of the Doctor is treating her; African or Foreigner? What has become of Nigeria' ailment among the world? What has become of her politics? The cobwebs on my eyelid can't allow me to see, I can't hear of her voice here in the outcast of town. Who is who in the fire game of my country? What has become of our serving Grace? What has become of the pillar of Africa? Is she moving forward or backward with her children? What has become of the farmers that plant lives? Are they still breathing or entangled in the madness Of the same old age of our oil producing country? What has become of her Education? Is there any future for the youth? Is there plans for the next generation? Or is our budget too little to accommodate that? Are our professors still speak deadly languages? What has become of our learning classroom? What has become of the churches? Is there still anyone praying for the nation? Seeing from here is not good to my eyes, The disadvantages of living abroad hurt me deadly. Can someone please tell me of my beloved country? What has become of her currency? Is there still value on it or has it join others? Nigerians are in war with themselves; My people are in a battle with their souls. What shall we hold unto when tomorrow comes; Oil or Agricultural product? I used to know a great country here, But what has become of her now? I used to know a giant in the midst of Dwarfs; But what has become of that country now? Is everyone there dead or alive? God forbid but life permits! (C) john Chizoba Vincent
