The Funeral of Tinapa Business Resorts
The Funeral of Tinapa,
Conference table littered with chicken and cockroach laps
A keg of palm wine descending from Adia Abo
Grabbers haggling on sharing formula
Emporiums rust and rats
Shopping mulls moaning
A banner of hypocrisies at the gate’ welcome to Tinapa’
Uniform of incompetence in the helm of decisions,
Tribal perfectionists nailing Tinapa’s coffin
Frustrated villagers pilfering cables and diesel
Amber at lost
Banks limping
Power supply a shadow of the Nigeria factor
Ponet a sheer seasonal fantasies
Nollywood studio an abode of lizards
At December we fool Nigerians with make belief. …
