Though I never knew Wing Commander Chimda Hedima personally, I have friends who did..He was a calm, friendly and brilliant chap..He piloted the ill-fated Alpha Jet of the NAF till he was murdered..Though I'm not an excellent poet, I must admit, I felt I needed to write a simple poem in honour of this patriot...He won't get a National honour even though "Aki" and "Pawpaw" did..No..but, he will stay in our hearts a hero and a loyal son of this country...
RIP Wing Commander Chimda Hedima..


Today, my bird will soar..
Today my country's might will roar..
With skill, with poise, heart and might..
Ill fly, ill fly its wings, its war, ill gladly fight.

Now cutting through the wind..
My chariot, in Mach 1 blistering with speed..
Arriving to visit hell on my country's enemies..
Ill fly, ill fly, with bravery and grace, in history's corridors, let me take my place.

I see the devils!! duty calls now,
Slowly I drop my ordinace, evading their shells with brilliance..
Its done, with a smile I look up...
Shivering controls, break my grin..

Our chariot's been hit! Its been hit!
Screams my co-warrior in his seat.
Let's get home! Let's get home!He screams..
No..No...Not home..I say, Lets finish this..

Slowly we roll down...still fighting with every breath..
Flames light up their camps! Death, death death!
We did it! We did it!

Bang!! excitement gives way as my chariot begins to break apart
She served me well, my land too..
Eject! Eject! My co-warrior screams..
No I won't! As crazy as that seems....

I see light now...A punch jerks me up..
I've been captured! Still I can't feel fear?
Where is my co-pilot? Where is my chariot?
I remember it all..joy fills my heart, because I answered when duty called..

I see their axe now, I look at the sky,
Still no fear? Still no tears?
Ill defy them all, still ill stay strong..
Take my life, get on with it! Warriors don't plead...

Mama, Papa, weep not...im going home standing tall..
A true patriot, I hope I did my best..
I gave my life, I gave my all..
To my country, my land, I fulfilled my pledge..

Forget me not, forget me not..
From the forests of the south, to the hills of the North.
Tell my story, tell it all..
My sacrifice, my bravery, oh! Tell it all.



Thank You.

SiriusBlack, the Lord is your strength

When will the NA commence the operation that would help us flush the Haramites out of Michika? They'v also reached the town of Kuburshosho, burning down the family house of Boni Haruna, the minister of Youth and development.

I DAFF my head in respect for this hero. You were there when duty called and you died a brave man. Maximum respect as your selfless service has given us hope that indeed, there will be light at the end of the tunnel.

REST IN PEACE SOLDIER!

THE TIDE OFMARCH

Goodbye we shall see soon, He assured his family
With courage and pride he flew to the northern rally
Selfless service to motherland!
On no way to terrorism he stand!


To his face death bare its gnashing fangs
But never in fear did he shranks
Don't worry it wont be long
Just a strike and the pain is gone
O' brave soldier! You made your mama proud
Even so your lost companion in the cloud

Wife and kids dont be broken down
I just decided to go with this clowns
I was blown away with the crash
In the tide of March





this is just my little contribution to your poem Siriusblack althoug am not a poet

Revealed Incredible Personality


Paid the price the ultimate price for a nation that its leaders who should know better would other wise DENIGRATE than CELEBRATE by descending so low to even deny his existance.


Officer I salute you with gratitude from all patriots of Nigeria.
