THE PEOM OF THE
NORTHERN NIGERIA YOUTH
A region once
dominated by economic viability.
A region once
crowned with leadership.
A region once living
under with security buoyancy.
A region once
controlled by selfless men and worth the name.
A region that once
served as the economic never Centre of West Africa.
Selflessness and
love were its foundation security and peaceful coexistence where it’s pillars.
Trust and honestly where
it’s walls.
Leadership and
military might where its roof.
And goodliness was its
house.
Our past heroes will
never forgive us.
In region they build
on equity, justice and accountability is on fire
We have rulers today
but no single leader.
Selfishness and greed
is there lot.
The public thief and
social recognition have blinded us.
We’re literately
responsible for our own destruction
We’re simply on a
sinking ship without a captain
The northern youth
are nothing but bunch of drug addict.
The educated ones
are waiting for their turn to steal so that they can live in mansions and drive
in exclusive cars.
And the common
slogan is, “there’s nothing we can do”
He who stand for the
truth is mock at.
Our roof is on fire
with incessant bombs.
Our foundation is
sinking in ignorance and drug addiction.
Our walls are
falling apart because nobody cares.
Our concern for and immediate
and drastic solution is a fiasco.
Our neighbor’s house
is on fire but I care not because I’m enjoying the luxury of my ill-gotten
mansion.
Everyday someone’s dies
as a result of justice, repair for the day you will die because of injustice
Talk to your parents,
your uncles, your friends, lets them provide a lasting solution for us.
The time for attitudinal
change is now, change began with me and you, yes me and you.
