REPORIENTATION 178

 REPORIENTATION





WE HAVE GONE FAR

We have journeyed far 

Far past the faraway kingdom

Kingdom where plagues abound

Abound with no restrictions

Restrictions on immorality and indecency

Indecency hand-in-hand with Injustice

Injustice not different from inserting bullets into the systems of peaceful protesters with total shut up as though nothing happened

Happened as a norm

Norm as in we are used to their brutality

Brutality of our mind and society

Society being deformed socially

Socially affecting our reasoning, we still sweat inside our international airports, air conditioners on strike, even printers, and we are reasoning

Reasoning some people to be superior and others at a disadvantage

Disadvantaged not to be in power

Power centred on self

Self referring to not caring about whatever happens to my neighbours

Neighbours and I will take a walk 

Walk that was tagged terrorism the last time.


Time is almost now to give us #5,000 and make this place worse than hell

Hell for all and money for few who are poverty stricken

Stricken and tormented as "they" will identify.

Identify them whose joy flows like a river as destruction mines our land. No profit, yet the oil company leaders are planting mansions over there and raining estates in this land. 


Land with double standard

Standards change for different people involved

Involved two gets their lots according to the power in their possession

Possession of power made the president's in-law dress like a whore and their Sheria law impotent

Impotent in dealing with the bosses whose ways of swallowing social facilities do not have a spec of  impotence

Impotence debated out initially for religiousity

Religiousity and power makes an offender a saint and the news distributor a giant sinner.


We have gone far, yet it is never too late to make a U-turn. We could build the Nigeria we want to have. Live with others in mind


*... and for a better life, I will consider others in my actions!*

LIMPING OLYMPIAN

  REPORIENTATION   LIMPING OLYMPIAN Law wears no crown but rules over the king. This can only be true outside the land of "Jogbo." Jogbo, our dearest Jogbo where our rulers and their teams make the law  of the land a footstool. Their maids doctor the law like roadside mechanics just to afford their lords a handshake with favour. They make no law in favour of the king's subjects. Of a truth, they sleep in luxury the subjects cannot afford; what they cannot get, they employ a long harvesting knife. Do they care if the followers can't even afford the usury? Recklessness has forgotten his tooth deep in their flesh.  The King of Jogbo, his "baales" and his chiefs are competing with cars and houses when the subjects keep struggling to afford a meal per day. They wine and dine morning, afternoon and evening; every day is meant for celebrations even when the citizens mourn. The cries of the citizens mean nothing greater than the sound of a swarm of bees. In Jogbo, c

  REPORIENTATION   LIVE “ The more you live, the more you know, the more you love, the more you learn that life is not just about being alive but more importantly about living” D.M. Adewusi. We all know the economic situation of the country is not as palatable as expected, nevertheless, we all strive hard to see through each passing day. The question now is do we do this alone or do we all have it at the back of our minds that there are other people's success and achievements that is tied to ours? Until we all come to the understanding that we live for a purpose and there are other people tied to that purpose, we tend to be alive and not living.  It is, therefore, necessary for us all to start living and not just be alive, fulfill our purpose on earth, and achieve that target or goal if not for our sake but for the sake of those that are tied to our success and achievement. Stand, rise, and pick up from where you fell. If you fall 100 times, rise 100 times for behind every success

SEMBLANCE

  REPORIENTATION SEMBLANCE Why wear the coats of a servant when you know the shoes of a king is what suits you?  We appear to kneel but our hearts sits like a queen. Our voices say good morning but our faces have a firm grip on rods,  beating breath out of man on a bad morning.  We are the exact opposite of our barks.  A man who owes tax but killed a fat goat for festivity has done more harm than good. He may be crowned a saviour for providing what the mouth enjoys for the few he knows but should also be stoned for depriving the hundreds he knows not, some social amenities. Why we do what we do matters just as what we do.  We can't hide our shadows but it is not something to worry about when our location is right. Our deeds follow us whithersoever we go and we should always be mindful of why we do what we do because it is directly proportional to our actions and it is a constant in the consequences of our actions. So, dwell in your disappoinment and sketch a better way out.  ... an
