They Promised Us They made us promises of life: To create Three to Ten million Job opportunities for us And they gave us hopes of Standard roads, constant Electricity supply, Good education System, exhibition of the Rule of Law And carrying everyone of us along But when they mount the saddle This is still equivocal to us? Because of their way they choose? And not our way, The job creation promised us Was to “rape our ladies with money And sexual slavery”, recruiting thugs, Open day violence and humiliating The civilian populace, which they say Is our Immunity Imbroglio? And we should keep silent? They made us promises of life initially But now remunerate us with promises, Practically promises from the abyss. Copyright 2006 Prince Odimegwu Onwumere « return. |
