Monody For Our Ailing Land

The fishes in our water no longer swim
The birds in our forests no longer chirp
The dogs in our homes no longer bark
Alas! cloud of silence hovers the sky.

The fruits in our garden are pluck'd unripe
The ladder to our future lying broken.
Daylight is stiffled by sudden nightfall
As our rivers flow in currents of monody.

My earth, your earth is quivering
The earth on which our feet stand.
Our sky is gathering fogs at sunrise
The sky on whose loins our heads lean.

In this land all eyes are weeping:
Men's and women's; young's and old's...
Now who'll cuddle the griefing birds
Amid our failing appetites?

We've come to count tomorrow's
losses with the hands of today;
Who'll look at us in the eyes and tell
us it shall be well again?
Father has sold his boys for a gift of cowry
Mother setting out on a tour to perdition,
Leaving home for lizards and geckos...

Our tears have made an ocean
Who'll drink from it and say it tastes cool?
We're sweating amid harmattan haze,
As the canticles of our woes are cheerful songs for they that pushed us this far.

Dear fellow Nigerians, whenever they tell you that His Excellency, Mr. Peter Obi was formally a PDP member, tell them that Moses was raised in Pharaoh's house and yet GOD used Moses to liberate the Israelites from Pharaoh's captivity.

Peter Obi suspends campaign

The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, Mr Peter Obi has suspended his 2023 campaign.

Obi made the announcement when he paid a courtesy visit to the governor of Benue state, Samuel Ortom on Wednesday.

Obi’s decision came at a time when flood-ravaged states in the country. He advised other presidential candidates, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress, APC and others to come together and sympathize with victims.

His words: “As you can see today, flood is ravaging the entire country. And people are dying. People are being displaced. I personally stopped and told my people no more campaigns, until we are able to visit some of the sites, at least sympathize with those going through problems.
