Drawn to a nation defeated from a resisted tyranny And our leaders claim otherwise To whom do they despair They deceive none but the poor masses Clinging from their own selfish volition To unleash false righteousness on the majority To achieve a desired end To what retired means  Do they unveil And I pour out my purest soul To my nation drawn to dark ages By toothless old men Who do but work after their own gain My truest pray'r to their own vain Who but only God can stop that long To do but save a nation from the noisy dong To whom we do but pray Just to remember but save the Giant of Africa Walking near, through the doom of oblivion  Perhaps am drawn to the facts But who do you think can save  A nation dying from the dawn of a new era Whose leaders volitions are none but false Who do you think can save the innocents From the prying fangs of the smiling tyrants  None other but God.

There is a gray in the sun  I saw a gray in the sun  Moving through the clouds  Defying the order of the sky  Defiling the sacrosanctity of the universe  Disrupting the spirituality of the cosmos  Dismantling the laws of the planet  I saw a gray in the sun 

Once upon a time, there lived two friends in a remote village West of Africa. They were hunters. They've been together as friends since their childhood days. They went hunting together, went swimming together, there was nothing they did without the knowledge of each other. Mingi and Amakiri were like brothers from the same parents. They were never apart and they did everything together. They fought wars for their kingdom and conquered. They hunted buffaloes, antelopes, deer, etc. It was said that at one time they killed a lion and an elephant on the same day, brought them home and shared to all the villagers. They were fearless, strong and mighty. Mingi and Amakiri, whenever my eyes sets on both of you my spirit jumps for joy, till today I still do not know why said an old woman who lived by the seashore.      These two were the pride of their parents, the strength of their kingdom and a joy to themselves. This one you are smiling all by yourself I hope you've not g

    BOOM  💥💥💥!!! And it happened: the nightmare of every true Nigerian who suffered during the dark era of the former president, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari. The one we wished not to come to fruition. And we prayed; let it just be a dream but, we woke up to it's reality. Through the misery it came to pass: The re-emergence of APC. Whether the election was rigged or not, the reality is: APC still exists in power. When the righteous reigns the people rejoice but when the wicked rules the people suffer. Now is the set time for them to right all their wrongs if truly they have the interest of Nigerians at heart. Though not the same personalities but the party still lingers and just the imagination and remembrance of what we went through in the hands of their predecessors, coupled with the untold hardship we've encountered because of the fuel subsidy removal less than 24hrs of the new president Bola Ahmed Tinubu's inauguration, we do nought but only hope and pray 🙏🙏.

Right across the ocean Above the rim of the seas Round about the isle of the waters  Deep down the ruggedness of the mighty waves Beneath the torrents of the rough winds Wherein lies the awesomeness of God's power  Right across the ocean.

Coming from suffering and pain Fulfilling the statement no pain no gain Striving even in the rain Struggling even in vain Fighting even without a mane Surviving even in the face of the toughest bane I came from suffering and pain.

Saddened by the misfortune that has befallen him Hardened by his continual experience of hardship Driven by his optimal quest for Lordship Man, faced with subjugal infernos, conflicts, sicknesses and natural disasters, has now more than anytime in history accepted in good FAITH his FATE of the AFTERLIFE.

"It is never too late to be what you might have been"(George Eliot).      Once upon a time, a daughter complained to her father that her life was miserable and that she didn't know how she was going to make it. She was tired of fighting and struggling all the time. It seemed just as one problem was solved, another one soon followed. Her father, a chef, took her to the kitchen. He filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Once the three pots began to boil, he placed potatoes in one pot, he placed eggs in the second pot and ground coffee beans on the third pot. He then let them sit and boil without saying a word to his daughter. The daughter moaned and impatiently waited, wondering what he was doing. After twenty minutes he turned off the burners. He took the potatoes out of the pot and placed them in a bowl. He pulled the boiled eggs out and placed them in a bowl. He then ladled the coffee out and poured them into a cup. Turning to her he ask

Gazing into the sky mind full of interrogation Sighting as the cloud changes formation Watching as the stars appear in their beautiful locations Observing as the moon stands firm in it's position Wondering what there is to this life full of evil machinations.      Just live and expect nothing from no one. Only expect your dreams and aspirations to come to realization.

"Mankind must put an end to war or war will put an end to mankind"(John F Kennedy).      All war is a symptom of man's failure as a thinking animal. It is forbidden to kill, therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets. There is no flag large enough to cover the shame of killing innocent people. When the rich wage war it's the poor who die.  It is no longer news that Russia invaded Ukraine, crossing their military borders and starting a battle that might if proper precautions are not taken usher in a third  world war. On 24th February 2022, Russia President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin ordered his troops to invade and occupy parts of Ukraine in a major escalation of the Russo-Ukrainian War which had begun in 2014. The invasion have resulted in   tens of thousands of death from both sides and instigated Europe's largest refugee crisis since World War 11. About 8 million Ukrainians were displaced wit
