Naira Redesigned, Chaos To Nigerians

Affliction fiercely force foreigners out of the nation ..
Citizen set sight to the sovereign one above..
The ones on earth becomes earthworms eating our happiness and paying it with extreme hardship..
Their heart is ganished with fallacy..
Things becomes stale

Redesiged of naira note knocked down citizens to their knees,  the current status with sadness to all ..

Think Well My Fellow Nigerians

The interview at Chatham House gave me a pill that's hard to swallow
Against what some apologetics think is straight and narrow
Cos BAT didn't want to follow other's footsteps in anything
He decided to walk all of us through a new thing

A new thing he has mapped out in his road map
So that wailers won't come again

Premium MemberOn the Run

Nigerians are on the run
Refugees in search of Asylum 
No more sweetness in their fatherland
Their dreams have crumbled 

The giant of Africa is in shambles
With hope of her youth buried under the rubbles of
Man made insurgency
Banditry and insane killings

Evil holds sway everywhere 
While goodness scamper to safety 
Succor for the needy 
Has been looted by

Advising Nigerians Outgoing President

To The Now-Pitied President 
No longer thought God-Sent 
The making of superb contacts
For entry into cleaner contracts 
Is a command to avoid patched-up pacts 
And-trust-me – costs you True Logisticians 
Besides Sincere Magicians;
If the packages are not to hit the rocks
Or more keys appear with stubborn locks;
“If truly thou seekest a final Turn Around
That shouldest

The Late Sani Abacha

Nigerians’ most feared President 
And possible Hell-fire President
But rather My Bad Friend
I had to mourn his ***** end 
For the Cameroonian Presence in Bakassi
He beautifully dismissed as a heresy:
A subject of panicking intricacy
On his dining table chewable delicacy…

Save that his sit- tight anxiety
Was the damnedest Impropriety?
The Masses’ wish for democracy breath- choking
The masses ready for

The Cry of Nigerians

No! Nigeria! Why!

We have always been happy despite the hitches.
We have wept together despite our half-baked unity.
We have laughed together despite our different trinities.

No! Nigeria! Why!

But came OCTOBER the overwhelming independence.
We are free! We are free from the shackles I hear!
We are still slaves to our own mother you will attest.
 
No! Nigeria! Why!

Independence where

Melody of Nigerians

MELODY OF NIGERIANS


In the market, the Government sells verities 
of rumour of future change, we dance well
through the night and when morning comes, we 
saw pains and sorrow instead of good fortune.


How painful it is to hear them speak in their 
sugar coated tongue, and believe in their loosely
song of tomorrow's leaders yet like little

Nigerians Song

When are we going to die?
Would they kill us?
How would they kill us?
Who will kill us?
When would they eventually kill us?
Terrorist leave us alone
Let us be in peace And harmony.
First, it was the militant, then the bakassi and
now the Boko Harem.
We all need peace and harmony to live.
These are compound complex problems 
Hang in the

Nigerians Are Full of Dreams

 Nigeria, A pillar but not a stronghold; 
Our leaders, A watchers not shepherd; 
And our people are gifted, but they don’t have a platform.

Without a platform to display
What you have (your gifts) 
How then can it be fruitful, 
How can it multiply and bring forth many
That is the main reason we are left behind,

Three Nigerians

Three Nigerians,
One goes to the west and says “wa”,
And taught some south-Asians to say wah!
Another goes to the north and says “zo”,
And brought along some herds of zo!
The other goes to the east and says “bia”,
And learnt how to sell lots of beer!
