The Stolen Mandate

He has a caring heart, he has the passion He came to his own, his own accepted him He came to render selfless service to his people The burden is upon his solder, he's ready to bear it He set the vision and he is running with it He has ran, he's still running, He has ran far and wide He represents leadership, pragmatic leadership He has consulted, he has consolidated He has built bridges, he's set to build more Then they came, they struck, to disrupt the peace, the peace of our clan To reset and unsettle, to enthrone mediocrity and moribundity Why do they enjoy lawlessness, brigandage, thuggery? Why do they, especially in our clan, enjoy conflicts and unrest? Why do they take delight in heating up the system? Why do they like arrogating powers they do not have to themselves? Why do they like parading about like tin gods? Why? Why? Why? Are they gods? No they aren't. They are mortals. No election was held yet a winner emerged - what a farce! The electorates were denied of their civic rights, They were disenfranchised by self seeking politicians. The mandate was stolen, the people's mandate. Ha! This is an omen, I do not see where this will take us. Now I see, it will take us to damnation, to destruction, Except the mandate be restored, the people's mandate. Ah! I heard a voice saying It shall be restored! Mother Earth shall help us restore it. God of the sky shall help us restore it. The Sun, the Moon, the Stars shall help us restore it. Ivo, Ohaozara, Onitcha shall restore it. Though it be stolen, it shall be restored. The people's mandate shall be restored by the people.
