Tribute To The Fallen Corpers. by BlackRace1(m): 11:08pm On May 01, 2011
Its a boy yet he's so cute and pretty the doctor says.
Ikechukwu's mum beams with smiles because she knows so well
He'll be her eyes when her sight starts failing
He'll be her legs when she becomes weak and feeble
He'll be her happiness when he sits by her bedside caring for her
All that became a dream 25 years later
When Ikechukwu lay hiding in the bush
Not as a thief, a robber or a fraudster
His crime was serving his nation as a corper
That night a president, a governor, a lawmaker was killed
In the most gruesome manner ever imagined.
His crime again was just for being a corper.
Serving dutifully his fatherland
Refusing redeployment but staying in the hinterland
And obeying the clarion call to join the election band
Now his blood is spilled in waste on the Northern sand
I shed a tear for the heros of our nation
I kneel and pray for peace and unity in our nation
You'll forever be imprinted in my heart as the matyrs of democracy
God bless Nigeria!
