The Naija Phone Call (A Poem) by Badirukehinde(m): 12:35am On Oct 01, 2017
---The Nigerian Phone Call---


*call missed*
Dial again,
Call forwarded!



Hello, call me back,
I'm busy with the dollar and pounds,
We are busy with the new estate at Garki
I forgot to mention that
I also planning my next trip to Dubai
Ohh , hello, my daughter needs to study abroad,
My grand mother should be the new
minister for Sports' & Tourism
I have a briefing...



Caller: Don't bother to pick again!
I will just leave a message...


Just pray for me,
Pray for us
And pray for them.



Call dropped,
call time 01:10:2017
Phone switched off
The number you are trying to call
Is currently not available
Please don't,
I repeat, dont try again later.

Try re-arranging this, modify. Because I'm confused.
