YOU WANT OUR MONEY OR OUR PROPERSITY?

As bells jingle

Many calls from campaigners

Telling us the saviour has come, and one has arisen to complete His mission

His mission! What mission? I question

To steal, kill and destroy or to save us!

You want our money or our prosperity?

Education is lagging behind friends and fair masters mate

Mr. fantani allocates a billion Nigerian Naira for his candidature

Borrows more from friends and associates and gets billion more as a gift to run the race.

You want our money or our prosperity?

On the altar of promises and the podium of graceful intentions driven by power

You read out browsed and drafted lies to the people

You say in your mind; hail me gerian fools! For I need regain my gifting

Better; Now I see why you kidnapped education and jail infrastructural development

For the renewed mind of the populace will bring light to men imposed darkness

You will never mind if u can “A” pprehend and “SUU” the union to cripple the Great Light of the Nation;

Still, you say more to come

Come let's ascend to the next level of no vision

Another says He is born again, the ship I co-wrecked, let’s get it working again

You want our prosperity or our money!

You syphoned a lot

You’ve kept a lot,

We remain the same

Guess it's not your fault, till the people wake up

Nigeria’s kingdom will surely come

ON THE NIGERIAN CHILD AND AN ENDANGERED FUTURE

ON THE NIGERIAN CHILD AND AN ENDANGERED FUTURE BY OLANIBA BOLAJI OLUWATOBI Over the years our children have been victims of unusual and unfounded circumstance ranging from sexual abuse to child labor/child abuse across all fonts of first; economic activities (from mild to hard labor) in extractive, manufacturing and service industry, to the social, Educational and cultural sphere and in the hands of religious devils. worst still is the spate at which sexual abuse against (most especially) the girl child has become pervasive in our society and perpetuated surprisingly by close relatives and neighbors, which includes those who are old enough to be the fathers and grandfathers of these girls, and even their own biological fathers, uncles, and Brothers, etc. sexual exploitation against the male child is also mounting, and should not be overlooked. Hiding sodomy agents lie around the corner pouncing upon the male children at school, in the homes and neighborhood

PREPARE TO MEET YOUR GOD (ON WORLD TERRORISM AND HEARTLESSNESS)

POEMS THAT INVOKE THOUGHT PREPARE TO MEET YOUR GOD (ON WORLD TERRORISM AND HEARTLESSNESS) By Bolaji Olaniba There is one whose ambitions are greater than the sacred life of the people He tosses his glass of wine to the massacre of the common man The news of scattered human flesh pinches him not He is immovable, because of his never satisfied political want *Sigh* Hope in the existence of the SUPREME ONE; Common man. Though the ideology of our political dogs seems greater to them than the human Blood All around the world are leaders whose smiles are as Dane guns *Sighs* Hope in the existence of the ALMIGHTY ONE; common man. They stand upon watery ideologies Claiming they will see it out with all their ability, That they represent men called; ordinary But they end up with staunch grudges Maiming same beings by virtue of great greed. Religious they say, political they claim Being sponsored by those who put out teethes of deceit Me

“SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT AND THE BEAUTY OF CULTURAL CONVERGENCE”

“SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT AND THE BEAUTY OF CULTURAL CONVERGENCE” (THE LAGOS CASE STUDY) BY BOLAJI OLANIBA One of the important factors that lubricates and checkmate the frictions inherent in multicultural societies is the presence of social development; which entails the establishment of adequate and sustainable infrastructures and the availability of equal opportunities for members of every ethnic, cultural, religious groups present in that society to access and move up the rungs of Socio - economic Ladder via the societal/lawfully prescribed way without restrictions of any kind. It is of no doubt that many Nations are plunged into this phenomenon, while some have chosen to see and live with it from a “Rainbow perspective” and work with it as such, with fruitful results and sound social development becoming the aftermaths, others have seen it as an unfortunate taboo that must be revoked; thereby leading to the creation of War situation and destruction on the assumed ba
