The Irony Of Life. by lawani: 12:50am On Aug 14, 2016
Sell on the streets and in the hustle and bustle!
For more jobs and a strong economy!
Is the Song of Naija intellectuals.
No street trading, hawking or warehousing!
You want to be in business?
Then have an address!
And render account to us all
Is what they sing in Europe
Whats the result?
An European produces 50 versus a Nigerian produce 5!
Nigerians in Europe abegging for jobs!
Thats the irony of life!


Dont tax the poor or the weak and the old!
On compassionate grounds for we sell crude oil!
Is the song of Naija intellectuals.
All of us must chip in taxes! Young, old, rich or poor, proportional to income!
You hide profit, you go to jail!
Is what they sing in Europe!
Whats the result?
Weak, poor, old Nigerians are trampled upon, no welfare scheme nor anything for them at all, some lie on the streets to die, while in Europe, very few are hungry or even left behind!
Thats the irony of life!

The irony of life!
