The Delta
A glorious end
The Hague – Netherlands
The international supreme court of justice
Countless wars without end
Victories are sometimes shunned
The end does not always justify the means
Terrorist is now a label undermining human frustration with injustice.
Biafra were called terrorists
I wonder
We should have made it clear from the beginning like India and Pakistan did
Ziki, Ziki, Ziki I still question our independence.
I see many strings with the common wealth of nations.
I believe we were told not to cross the line of true prosperity.
A few are well fed to maintain anarchy
Illiterate is the order of the day
150 million population and 150 million dollars.
One sees a lot of capabilities
A welfare state, free education, a wealthy people not country
Country only means government
Abacha and country
A country of tribalism
Individualism prevails
“United we stand divided we fall”
A well thought out slogan
Hausa, Yoruba and “others” only means war
A war of intellect for true victory
A list of injustice
Proof of our boundaries
Our people culture and wealth
A claim for sovereignty for our people culture and wealth.
Nigeria cannot exist when “other” tribes are marginalised.
Pen and paper to The Hague
Less the guns for another aim
Bush meat.
