Best Nigerians Poems
Three NigeriansThree Nigerians,
One goes to the west and says “wa”,
And taught some south-Asians to say wah!
Another goes to the north and says “zo”,
And brought along some herds of zo!
The other goes to the east and says “bia”,
And learnt how to sell lots of beer!...

The Cry of NigeriansNo! Nigeria! Why!
We have always been happy despite the hitches.
We have wept together despite our half-baked unity.
We have laughed together despite our different trinities.
No! Nigeria! Why!
But came OCTOBER the overwhelming independence.
We are free! We are free from the shackles I hear!
We are still slaves to...

Melody of NigeriansMELODY OF NIGERIANS
In the market, the Government sells verities
of rumour of future change, we dance well
through the night and when morning comes, we
saw pains and sorrow instead of good fortune.
How painful it is to hear them speak in their
sugar coated tongue, and...

Nigerians Are Full of Dreams Nigeria, A pillar but not a stronghold;
Our leaders, A watchers not shepherd;
And our people are gifted, but they don’t have a platform.
Without a platform to display
What you have (your gifts)
How then can it be fruitful,
How can it multiply and bring...

Think Well My Fellow NigeriansThe interview at Chatham House gave me a pill that's hard to swallow
Against what some apologetics think is straight and narrow
Cos BAT didn't want to follow other's footsteps in anything
He decided to walk all of us through a new thing
A new thing he has mapped...

Advising Nigerians Outgoing PresidentTo The Now-Pitied President
No longer thought God-Sent
The making of superb contacts
For entry into cleaner contracts
Is a command to avoid patched-up pacts
And-trust-me – costs you True Logisticians
Besides Sincere Magicians;
If the packages are not to hit the rocks
Or more keys appear with...

On the RunNigerians are on the run
Refugees in search of Asylum
No more sweetness in their fatherland
Their dreams have crumbled
The giant of Africa is in shambles
With hope of her youth buried under the rubbles of
Man made insurgency
Banditry and insane killings
Evil holds sway everywhere
While goodness scamper...

The Late Sani AbachaNigerians’ most feared President
And possible Hell-fire President
But rather My Bad Friend
I had to mourn his ***** end
For the Cameroonian Presence in Bakassi
He beautifully dismissed as a heresy:
A subject of panicking intricacy
On his dining table chewable delicacy…
Save that his sit- tight anxiety
Was the damnedest...
