THE COLONIALIST IS AT THE DOOR Written by KEMKA S. IBEJI


Africa, my great Africa!

The cradle of civilization

The first light sighter

Africa, the giant humiliate

Wake up dear Africa


Africa broke the chest of wisdom

Africa smacked the lock of lights

Africa gave knowledge to the world

Africa trained all Thinkers of the world 

Africa got humiliated in repayment


Our fathers were made slaves

Our mothers, sisters and daughters raped

Our children were destroyed before us

Our freedom called but halfway


Africa fights for the half freedom

Nearly a century now, we've fought on

The gains are much but about to go


Who do we want to serve in Niger?

The enemies are lurking like vultures

They feast on carcasses and spoils

The African carcasses they relish

Their meal for years uncountable


The colonisers are here again

The colonialist is at the door

The colonialists knock so deafening

Keep this door shut now

Where is our wisdom Africa

Our ancestors were so witty

What has happened to their offsprings

Do we now die in ignorance?

Let's not get into the open arms

The arms of our colonisers are ajar

Their teeth are yawning for ours

Let's not crumble


Africa oh Africans

Rise up to wisdom and awe

Defend our land with wits

Let our reasoning blaze as blade

Send the enemies home in shame

The colonialist is at the door.

Shut this door and forever shut it


Rise up oh Africa!

THE OUTLAWS IN THE SOUTHWEST AND THEIR ENABLER: THE AREA BOY CALLED OBA OF LAGOS Written by KEMKA S. IBEJI

Rilwan Akiolu  Till that area boy called Oba of Lagos is thrown into prison for his criminal calls during several election periods for the killing of Igbos in Lagos and his threat to murder Igbos in Yoruba land, that crime of segregation against the law of Nigeria, by some outlaws in the southwest, will continue. The law asserts that all Nigerians are free to live in any part of Nigeria and exercise their rights and enjoy their privileges as well. Just saying that an Igbo man can't vie for the governorship of Lagos State alone is a crime punishable by the laws of Nigeria. But what? Each election period we see plenteous crimes from all fours of Yoruba land with recklessness mindless of the law. But the federal government has always looked away. But a Yoruba man is ruling Nigeria which covers Igbo land. Is that conquest or something else? The problem that will consume the entire country (Nigeria) will start from here. The Igbos suffered the most grievous genocide in the history of Ni

CELEBRATING THE FATHER OF NIGERIAN DEMOCRACY DAY: PROF. HUMPHREY NWOSU

Image
On this day, 12th June, I celebrate this Noble Man - Prof. Humphrey Nwosu - who conducted the best election ever in Nigeria under a military junta. A rare gem whose conscience couldn't and can't be bought with money, men of your kind are very few. May Almighty God who Blesses men of Honour, continue to Bless you with health in age and every blessing due to your greatest honour. That's an Igbo man, in case you want to know. Those who say Igbos are supremacists who see themselves as better than anyone else, this is it. If you can mention any other person who can stand his ground, even during the military junta, just tell me and I will drop my pride as the best tribe in the world. If an Igbo man rules Nigeria, these white fools that cheat and cheapen Nigeria will run away. They know and that's why they use these low headed folks in Nigeria against the Igbo. While you are busy celebrating MKO Abiola who didn't have the character to keep and sustain the mandate handed hi
