“Let my people give peace a chance. Elections are mere games of number played in love and out of love and in the spirit of love, friendship and universal altruism. Fellow Nigerians, give peace a chance or perish like fools.”
Nigeria, great country, destined to rule the world
There’s no nation in the world as great as our Nigeria
With God, this Nigeria, God’s own beloved nation will rule the world
Yes, Nigeria, God’s own beloved nation, shall someday rule the world
God, Creator of the Heavens and the Earth
Help us to live together as one, brothers and sisters
Accepting one another in spite of our differences
Understanding and forgetting such differences

A Short Play
Act 1 Scene 1
Setting: Abuju, the Federal Capital Territory of Wayo Republic in the Inner Interview Studio of Scorpion News Corporation.
Scorpion News Corp is a highly respected media outfit, extremely radical, very uncompromising and remains the greatest defender of the truth and the nation.
Also, the news outfit is very well known throughout the Federal Republic of Wayo (FRW) for its non-partisanship, impartiality, hence it had been given a fond name NON-ALIGN by its numerous and teeming viewers.
The President of the Wayo Republic who had been accused of avoiding interviews finally bowed to pressures to honour the invite from the media house, popularly and fondly referred to by the people of the Wayo Land as NON-ALIGNERS.
SERIES: BUHARISM & FIERCE URGENCY OF NOW
When they attacked the Middle Belt,
I said I’m not a Middle Belter;
So, I did nothing.
B…… backwardness, barbarity, beast, bestiality, bad luck, broke, braggadocio, bribery
U……under development, unelectable, unbalanced, untrustworthy, untruth, unattractive, unhealthy, unwholesome
When Muhammadu Buhari attacked the Shi’ites and killed them;
I said: I just can’t be bothered because I’m not a Shi’ite;
And when he went Python-dancing at Afara-Ukwu;
I said: I just can’t be bothered because I’m not Igbo,
When he attacked and killed the Middle Belters;
I said: I just can’t be bothered because I’m neither a Tiv nor an Idoma, nor an Igala,
“Vote APC or die
Join MB or die
Criticised and be probed
Oppose and be killed.”

We are now in a world without an anchor
And the ship is buffeting against
the stormy gale of the Atlantic.

With tears in my eyes and a great sorrow in my heart for my late elder brother, LAWRENCE OHIERO LEGA ONWOGIDI (LOLO) who alongside other patriotic and gallant soldiers fought in the civil war in Nigeria that lasted 30-months to KEEP NIGERIA ONE, I dedicate this poem which is part of my MAKE NIGERIA ONE AGAIN® series.

A.O. (About to respond, but was cut short by Ete Obot, popularly known in Ukana Land as “Cut grass, take 10”).
Ete Obot: Kwi quahyet (keep quiet)! I say don’t be ‘tupid! If you no yump (jump) commot from my face nah, nah (now, now) I ko (go) frog yump (jump) and make you (yump) into the yacoon (lagoon) in faraway Yaygos (Lagos). Nonsense!
The land here is not for grazing

nor for your habitation.
And you are not a part of the land here,
so are not part of our heritage and inheritance
Therefore, go away!
