A 12 Years old J.S.S3 scholar is taking the path of our great Noble Laureate, Wole Soyinka. He taps into his imagination to unveil the irregularities that govern our nation Nigeria. He is a student of Eagles Educational Centre at Uselu, Benin City and he strongly believes one day Nigeria will find its way to its savannah plains. Bleached to Bleed My beloved country, bleached The giant of ancestral savannah, bleached The golden star of the black legion, bleached The emerging economic magnet, bleached to bleed blood My beloved country, bed-ridden and sick Painted and tinted to corruptible gems Religious disease and political infections Succumbing to the wind of impecuniosity Tears of Rape Trauma of robbery Pains of unrest, snipers’ firing darts, sorrow, tears, and blood But all hope is ours to lust To right the wrongs To make straight the crooked lines All hope we must mine. © Aghama Solomon |
