i have always known that Igbos love Nigeria more than any other,they have invested every nook and cranny of Nigeria,believing in the Nigerian dream and doing all the could to contribute there quota to the development of Nigeria.
However one would ask, what did they get back for there patriotism?They were battered,marginalized and largerly hated by others. They where pushed to the wall,they had no choice but to repel and there youths are now seeing a country of there dream in Biafra,a country where merit is above quota system,where brain drain will give way to brain 'gain',where tribalism and nepotism will give way for strength character and hard work,a country where there is no 5% detested ones and 95% choosen ones,a country where indiscriminate movement of livestocks will give way to a ranching system. A country where no ethnic group has the sole right to move around with arms and ravage communities,a country where projects and appointments are equally distributed.

Dear Uzoma, well done....

Your book title reminds me of one gangsta shiit when i was in the hood back way 2003 cool

I had dreams of fuuckin' a R&B bicth like Mya
When I saw that ass on the front of that King
Read the article in the magazine, she loved gangsters, loved nasty things
So I'm in the glass house having nasty dreams
Good girls never give it up
But anything is possible, if 50 fuckeed Vivica
Hurdled life's obstacles, found my way through the maze
Then joy turned to pain like Frankie Beverly and Maze
Used to dream of being Unsigned Hype
'til I was crushed by Dave Mays, almost let my pen fall asleep on the page
Day-dreamin' yesterday, dozin' off backstage
I thought I saw Eazy talking to Jam Master Jay
So I walked over, heard Jam Master say
"It's a hard knock life, then you pass away"
They say sleep is the cousin of death, so my eyes wide open
Cause a dream is kin to your last breath

[Hook]
Blushin' in this 40 ounce, lettin' the ink from my pen bleed
Cause Martin Luther King had a (dream)
Aaliyah had a (dream), Left Eye had a (dream)
So I reached out to Kanye and (I brought you all my dreams)

The dream of Huey Newton, that's what I'm livin' through
The dream of Eric Wright, that's what I'm givin you
Who walked through the White House without a business suit
Compton hat, jheri curl drippin on Ronald Reagan's shoes
Gave Mike Lem my demo, came here to pay my dues
Started off with Whoo Kid, then I start blazin' Clue
It was all a dream like Big said it'd be
Don't sleep on me homey, I bring nightmares to reality
Rap phenomenon, defyin' the rules of gravity
Studied all the classics, start revisin' my strategy
Cause Marshall Mathers made it, Curtis Jackson made it
Head in the clouds, wonderin' where the hell Marvin Gaye went
How do I say this? I'm livin' for my son
But I can't figure out, why I'm at my temple with this gun
Wake up to a Jesus piece, like a catholic nun
The war to be a rap legend has just begun grin

This song is dedicated to Yetunde Price
The sister of Venus and Serena Williams
Who was slain during a gang shootout in Compton

Good one uzoma, but I can tell you that I've lost all hope in Nigeria. My dream died long ago

NwaAmaikpe:
shocked

Roy LAN Uzoma is really a dreamer.

Which Igbo man has a Nigerian dream.

I admire his intellectual strength and his literary ability. It's exciting to see young people write.
Reading and writing is a culture which has gone almost extinct in youths today.
I only wish he didn't commit too much energy to a dream that is almost a mirage.

I'd like to have a read though

grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

You almost got me with this. The Game. I once had a dream of fucking Genevieve Nnaji and Omotola. I hope my dreams don't turn to nightmares.
