Naira

Naira Naira OGUNLABI OLAJIDE YUSUF - NativePen TIME OF THOUGHT- 12:45am DATE OF THOUGHT-8/05)2019 Naira Oh Naira !! Gone are the days of your radiant gleam Now a tattered fabric, torn at the seam. Most sought after Naira is now in her gone glory Oh, Naira, once mighty and bold, In your story, a somber tale is told. Beggars on streets, disdain in their eyes, A currency weakened, to everyone's surprise. Oh! who is gonna rescue her? Like a rag, her eight borns surfers in your weakened grip The foreign currencies are now loved more than before Anyone to rescue Naira out there? A plea echoes, as your value takes a dip. The way forward is toning down our excessive love for foreign currencies
