Nevermind, I'm dead to reason I dared to think a moment and more A thousand more times did I try I couldn't find why the white hates They hate the blackman so deeply  Not anything good can come  From the whites about the blackman  They degrade us at all times They hunt us down like games Treat us like animals or less Imagine the ills of colonialism  The beastly mien of slave trade Those chains worn for years The pains from piercing the body The marks bored across bodies  While we taught them, they're vile With minds fixed at harming us When we wish them well, they plan Plans to unalive and take us out The white man hates me so deeply  Their stories about our land are gory Tellers who never visited our land Authorities in our history and life Their thoughts of us wrend the heart We mean just nothing or far less We don't exist except for their horrors  The white man hates us so much  It's now shaping me and more of us I'll live as their enemy foreve...

KEMKA S. IBEJI  It's a daylight fact and an undemocratic truth to say that our country, Nigeria, is in political turmoil. The bright morning star has chosen to shine dark and the pieces of our eyes can only pick patches of blindness. Woe onto our land as it journeys fiercely and furiously on the precipice of a slippy slope. It sounds like all our pitiable shrills are piercing admixture of elegy and dirge for ourselves though we are still alive. This leaves an impression of hopelessness and utter dismay. Don't ask me if we can ever recover please. Please! One Mr. Peter Obi sauntered towards the stage with all accoutrements of shimmering hope. That hope was fought as a war dangerously waged by a movement of the conscientious and intentional young population of Nigerians across colours and tongues. Knives, swords and sundry weapons were made available at all rungs of their climbing and entreaties from disguised enemies flowed and flowered but the determination of these young Niger...

The major difference between humans and the lower animals is rationality. But this comes with so many other things. Rationality entails there are things to think about. Such things as alternatives. Humans make choices as always presented with alternatives. With choice comes responsibility. Every choice therefore has a responsibility. This network makes human person different from the rest of organisms. The essential characteristics of human person therefore are; rationality, choice and responsibility. Within these are; freedom, alternatives or options. These must be complete in a being for such a being to be part of mankind. The implication is that if you deny any human being any of these features, you have dehumanised him or her. Dehumanisation therefore means the denial of rationality, choice, or responsibility. Inferentially, it also means the denial of freedom and alternatives. Whenever anyone no longer has any of these essential human characteristics, the being ceases to be huma...

JAMB Management have committed a crime and adequate restitution is requisite. The integrity of the outfit is no more and the confidence of the masses is lost. Tribalism is suspected and truth is dead in the mind of JAMB headship. These are irrefutable and call for serious concern. By their releases, JAMB was well aware of the inherent flaws within its system, before, during and after the examination before the public outcry. JAMB obviously knew there was a problem and were certain about it while the examination was still infant but they chose to continue with the army of flops.  The reason why everyone should press charges that should take the JAMB administration to jail is that whereas they were aware of significant differences in the negatives, whereas they knew that the results coming out lacked integrity, whereas they had pre-knowledge of the reasons for the paucity of results especially from the Southeast, they unashamedly still came to declare that the poor results were becau...

Some of us have not been interested in really looking into what this government has done on tribalism knowing fully that an average Yoruba man or woman will tilt towards his or her tribe at any given chance or opportunity. I personally got really attracted to this topic as I read the list of appointees purported to have been published by Sunday Dare few moments ago. That list merely wished to downplay the continued marginalisation of the South-East in the scheme of things and especially in this government led by Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his tribal goons. It is highly offensive to read the positions they outlined as the appointments to the South-East and that led me to peep into political appointments so far awarded by the Tinubu administration with emphasis on the Yoruba and the southwest. Just read and appreciate what has happened so far and keep it for record purposes. Below is a list of individuals from the Yoruba ethnic group and the Southwest geopolitical zone appointed by President ...

Just got up the bed feeling lost It's midnight, black skies and wind I'm all thoughts and nothing  I'm lonely in my world, obviously  It feels no one cares, none will  Guts drove me in here  Dreams of changing our world  Maybe, to impact it significantly  Being employed? Not me anymore  I'll create opportunities, make wealth  This country bites, it bites harder  Feeding feels like a luxury  Clothes're merely to cover the back It's tough now to venture or learn  The earth's roofs must be crumbling  Probably on myself alone I've got not the wealth Not the fame or name Knowledge is harder to chase This is just a midpoint dilemma Dready to go on or get back  Ashamed to see loved ones  Is this failure or temptation? Like I'm abandoned by dreams  Been shouting, no one hears me  Been asking but help's nowhere  To fight on, hope sounds dead Just vision led my way here  But has abandoned me, likely  Or...

They destroy other people's investments, feed their own wealth by making others poor, rape their wives, aunties and daughters, kidnap, kill and traffic their organs in the name of herding and now hunting. These foolish folks from the North talking now never condemned them not knowing that they're rather endangering the lives of even their generations to come. If the Hausas and the other tribes or ethnic groups in the North keep turning themselves into slaves by defending the stupidity, madness and barbarism of the marauders that call themselves Fulani herdsmen. While growing up we saw them herding peacefully and we helped guide and direct them towards bushes away from agricultural investments. We showed them love and ensured they were safe. But now that they have turned threats and terrorists in our land being protected and preserved by their brothers and sisters in government, the armed forces and other security agencies, they have turned themselves into nothing else than the ...

Love's stupid now It's seeing so much  Caring is insanity  No hunger belly does it  Pleasure is dead It's our biggest luxury  What's life thereto  Hey Mr. President  Love's gone to grave  Caring is a chimera Pleasure's been hanged  Peace is an idiot  Hey! Hey!! Hey!!! Don't tell me to stop  I want to thank you  Thank you Mr. President #poetry #poetrycommunity @highlight

It's clearly Nigeria against the Igbo man and woman without any exception. Recently, a certain situation took place in Uromi in Edo State of Nigeria. Edo State people killed some people allegedly from the North numbering about 16. The videos asserting the reality of the incident is everywhere on the internet and the certitude of that incident has not been denied so far. Not a single Igbo man or woman was involved in the scenario. None was seen near the occurrence. But guess what? They're already killing Igbos in the North because of the Uromi saga that has nothing to do with Ndị Igbo. What else? The government will never say anything. No Igbo politician will mention it for condemnation except maybe Sen. Enyinnia Abaribe because they're either puppets and criminals held hostage by their corrupt dealings. No Army, no Navy and no Air Force will say anything. No police or any other security portion of the government will say anything. But do you know one thing? They're forc...

Paint me! Paint me!! Paint me with your lips Let me look as an art piece  From the colours of your lips I care of the world no more  I'm numb to stimulus  Because your beauty stun Your heart is so delicate  Your being is a charm  It never lets go of me Paint me and make me an art Nest my head on your breasts Never let me stay bright eyed  Stain my eyes with all the beaut And I'll love you forever

In such situation as the one in Rivers State today, many people are exposed in terms of their limited knowledge or ignorance. But it has become important to use the words the way they should be clearly understood. When people break the law, they have committed crime. And when someone commits crime, the person is punishable by the law or the government. And whoever commits a crime is a criminal. It is therefore left for you to call the president by the name of his action. When we make mention of the principle of separation of powers in government, it does not only mean the demarcation of the three arms of the government - the executive, legislature and the judiciary. It also involves the distinctions between the three tiers of government. Just as the executive cannot usurp the powers of the legislature or judiciary or the legislature taking over either the executive or judiciary or even the judiciary taking preeminence the powers of either of the executive or judiciary, so is the federa...

Koi! Koi!! Koi!!! Hello justice in Nigeria  I am Sunday Jackson As I farm to provide for my family  This herder assailed me He destroys our farms, kills us He desired to kill me with knife I had no weapon and nothing  Seeing death, I tried to preserve life  He ceased my freedom to escape  He died trying to take my life  He died of his own weapon  I merely defended myself  My assailant died, he is dead Dear Sunday Jackson  You should have let him go Or you run away and die next time  Or let him kill you like your kins  You shall be hanged till you die This is justice in our land Our land is Nigeria  Kpom! Kpom!! Kpom!!! Justices of Supreme Court  May my life be spared I'm not a murderer  It was in the course of self defense  I've never killed, I'd never kill  He won't let me escape  He died that I refused suicide He died trying to kill me Dear Sunday Jackson  Death is fundamental right  Self pr...

The idea or information is that the Governor of Anambra State, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo is requesting the licencing of Native Doctors in the state. I assume that this is essentially an approach to the fight against violent crimes and insecurity in the state. This ordinarily should be a commendable action by the government except that a bad route may disfigure a destination. Though in recent times, societal experiences have taught me and many others the truism of a local colloquial adage in our younger age which states that "passing six is not passing sense". Again, such experiences have also made me to understand that leadership has nothing to do with academic degrees though the basic education is necessary for modern political leadership. When Professor Soludo was elected as the governor of Anambra State, like many others, I thought that God Almighty had answered the prayers of Ndi Anambra. But through the experience of this government led by Prof. Soludo, we are learning not t...

It is trite to legal commonsense that no system judges itself. And as the legal dictum states in the Latin phrase "Nemo judex in causa sua" that translates to "no one should be a judge in their own case". It's a fundamental principle of natural justice and constitutionalism that ensures impartiality in legal proceedings. The principle of nemo judex in causa sua originated in Roman law and was crystallized into a phrase by Edward Coke in the 17th century. It is however enshrined and found in legal systems around the world.  When the judiciary, including courts, judges, or lawyers, is accused as a party to a case, this creates a significant conflict, not only of interest but, populates the national social and political landscape with legalistic mines and destructive sands of natural law fabrics. Assuming you are a judge and eventually is caught in a crime, irrespective of the enormity, and the case is brought to you to judge yourself, what do you think you will do...

It's a den like terrible here  It's difficult not to think this Everyone here is a criminal  Everyone is encouraged to be Our money houses are extortionate  Our safe keepers are quiet robbers  Our will custodian is a treachery  The crown looks like a crook  Our lives are in utter danger Justice sings elegy and dirge  Its temple is a bazaar mall Why not call it a supermarket? Judgements are wares in shelves  We hope for a showroom soon  The priests and priestesses war The bounty is prize for the winner  The bench and bar cook us a meal The meal is injustice Shame took a flight  Constable and his masters kidnap  Our weapons to protect are nightmares  The state of nature is a joke  We live in the nature of state  The sovereign relishes all We may never get well, not soon  Wake me up from this sleep The dreams are after my life  It's insipid living in such a time  Livid? It won't serve either  Let...

It's severally too wrong from those saying that Peter Obi wouldn't have dared the reforms that Chief Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is attempting. The point is that the reforms are premature and malicious. They're malicious because the ruler is a tribalist and doesn't care about the rest of the country. He's on the Nigerian table to administer the Yorubas and nothing more or less. The pure and clear knowledge is that Peter Obi would have prepared the ground and make it ripe for the reform such that it won't be like a punitive association where one man is seen clearing the table into his bag while others starve home. Those who are also building the economy of Lagos come from the East, West, North and South. Most times I think the recent leadership of Nigeria lack so much in ideology. They run our communities and society without a philosophy. It was Bertrand Russell who averred that "The man who has no tincture of philosophy goes through life imprisoned in the pr...

Do you know why the African elite, African wealth and African heads of state are at the service of the West? Do you know why apartheid, colonization, neocolonialism and even Françafrique existed? Do you wonder why Africans are poor when their continent is full of so much wealth? Have you ever wondered why the black continent only knows despots who squander public funds without a qualm that they then deposit in the West? Do you know why African nationalists (Lumumba, Sankara, Edouardo Mondlane or Amilcar Cabral) were assassinated? Do you know why the peoples of Africa are gagged or why Western "democrats" endorse dictatorship and roll out the red carpet to welcome with pomp the potentates who govern us? The Franco-Ivorian Mireille Saki found the answer to all these questions at the Royal Museum for Central Africa in Tervuren, Belgium. There she discovered an unpublished document that had long been kept secret: the Charter of Imperialism . In this protocol of 28 articles is th...

A Party Greatly Aggrieved  Few minutes ago, I just read a piece of news that the Supreme Court has finally given judgement settling the long years of leadership tussles in APGA National Working Committee (NWC). I don't know how it feels both ways when congratulatory message is sent to those who have lost a loved one or even lost ones. Do we rather say it's misplaced or erroneous? Whichever way, I think it means nothing except that it's meaninglessly important. The victory and the defeat are all loss. APGA is dead and buried so fighting for the soul of APGA is exactly fighting for the corps of the dead. Of what use is it please? The New APGA  APGA died when Victim Oye, in company of Whilly Obiano led and supervised the blatant rape and violation of our people in 2019. The once strongest party in Nigeria died. The only political party that was both a movement and a faith system lost its strength and waned. It will never be well for those who did that to APGA and Ndị Igbo in g...

Amen, Hallelujah, Glory  It sounds like the Almighty is within  Ouch! You're gone in a moment  Their eyes on your belief and faith  Cassock, Collar, Cross Pendant  The congregation is in trouble  Like peddlers, pushers and hookups  Like gifters, tricksters and sharks  The ritual is the same  The goal is also just one Heaven cries, salvation suffers The cathedral is in flames  Burning from the fuels of lusts  Beelzebub, mammon recklessly feast On oath, crime mongers are here They've subdued whatever  Here's the cathedral  Cathedral is the Holy Ground  Goodness me! Swears, cognition is amiss  Who am I seeing here? Politician, Celebrity or Priest? The difference is no more  Oneness in potency and act  Only the perspective of perceiver They've captured the cathedral  The outlaws!

We're entangled with the confusion  We're in a severely muddled pond It seems like abyss and a pond Nothing is real, nothing is unreal Everything is unreal, everything is real  It's our world and we live in it Olden days bads are norms now Disdains of then are celebrities of now Common will custodians  turn usurpers  Our guards are robbing and raping us Friends of God are living in hades  We're urged to say more? No wonder! Morality left the law The temple of justice's sty of outlaws  My attorney's a head hunter  My Lord is a criminal  It feels like hades is here Our pens are bleeding falsehood  Our gowns are misleaders  Our pulpits tell lies and deceive Our people are eating sands But a few praise the Rock of Aso It's a wondrous world, it's Nigeria  Don't let us mention Africa  Wake me up from this nightmare  It shall be alright one day Waning never on hopes Just one day soon...
