Honour (For Prof. Ayodele Falase Former Ui Vc)
Honour
They expelled with dishour
Respect
Flee from them with distance
Dignity
Took to its heel on sighting them
Integrity
Briskly packed its belongings to avoid them
Sanctity
They oppose fervidly
Purity
They evade like leprosy
Decency
They see from afar
Probity
They made a campus taboo
Sincerity
Saw them and fainted
Veracity
Dies a natural death when it speak to them
Honesty
Snores with passion on smelling them
Accountability
Lost its voice only when conversing with them
Who are they?
Garbage of history meant to be erased from our memory.
