Under the twinkling of a wifly burst.
Till truth became for him the sum of anger.
And hunger. Hunger befriends the land.
The land befriends hunger. Our President,
What months and power wasted.
Change they promise. Change the people Expected.
He thought he could change The matter of the nation.
From the poles Ridden by corruption to simultaneous development
Only with this elixir. The change … shanji, shanji !!!
With the banner: Fight corruption Like a sailor on a horse, he sails
Fight corruption, fight corruption. Oh corruption, our largest GDP contributor?
Ehn! To change the matter of the Nation. Magnificent.
But with food on our tables.

Not just this change
By Obinna Chilekezi
With mumbo-jumbo of believing,
What a superstitious believe for change
We are a confused people with confused presidency
We want change and got shallow swallow appearances
Hunger has swallowed our land whole by time Dilemma!
Where altercation thrums, drumming
Out of the domestic Aso household
Heckling itself hoarse in that hot sun.
We want change, even Madam too.
We are confused and our president too.
And hunger bestrides the land, all but pollen’s polemic.
Contradiction, in flight from country to country
In search of foreign shadows. Contradictions.
We want change, and Madam too.
Not that Glittering with conflict as with diamond.
How Uneconomical the whole thing’s been.
We want positive change, not just this change
