Awon rulers Nigeria o ni ku’re
They shall not die well!
Thou shall not hate, says the Lord
I quote am for Quran and for Bible
Not be swear I swear, na as he go be
Ise owo won, lo ma da won le’jo
Olopa ewo ni te’pe? I asked in shock
After all, who want to hang?
The Hate Speech Bill, or what is it called?
Forget not, the Social Media gag
Be’yan o se’pe, epe ti mu won
Ewo ni te’pe, fe’ni to ti wu’wa epe?
Se adura ti eni ti won pa lo’mo n’se ni?
Iyawo Wasiu ti Soja pa l’oko n’ko?
You should have heard the love songs
As they bemoaned their losses with love
I hear the loving prayers of the children
The army of ungrateful beggars
The whatever millions of Almajiris
They just love our leaders to bits
Walahi won le ku’re!
Adura ta n’gba ninu okunkun
Awon ti Niger Delta yen tie daran
Dem night just be like day
Omo mekunnu ma ro’go oh!
Mo wo won la’ti Mushin to fi d’Oshodi
There were even some on the teevee
Rallying against Sowore they said
So ti ro’mo ti won ri lo’ri main road?
Unless they’re jogging to trim the fat
Our own hospitals are too good for them
Tayatomo unsafe Harley Street hospitals
E jo’wo eje ka gba Adura!
Ni Ola Kunfayakun!
Ni Ola Anabi Momodu!
Ni Agbara Olodumare!
A ni e je ka gba adura!
In the matchless name of Jesu Kristi!
By the reason of His Blood
And in His Glorious name!
Ni agbara Olorun Olodumare!
Oba Ajike Aiye! Ayanfe Orun
We hereby pray, and declare!
And we believe that Heaven says: Amen!
Let the life and posterity
Of the persons in charge of education
From Abia to Zamfara
Begin to reflect their stewardship!
Oh Heavenly Father!
Let everyone that have brought us
To where we are, be they dead or alive
Begin to receive their just reward
Our excellent health sector
Let the lives of everyone responsible
And of their inheritors if they be dead
Mirror their works in our health sector
Haba Father! Jah! Baba Mimo!
The loving flow of innocent blood speaks!
As they have secured your children
Let their generations be secured!
The rhythmic konga of the army
The army of unemployed you hear
The trained and untrained
Their children shall reap bountifully
The roads and bridges they have built
Shall be mirrored in their seeds
The seeds they have lovingly sowed
Their progeny shall harvest aplenty.
There’s no need to curse them
Ko yi need epe, Adabi ti da!
Whatever a man has planted he shall reap
Ase Eledumare ni….
