ON PLATEAU CRISIS

Image
If we really want peace to reign in this country, we should get the courage to condemn violence without looking at the ethnicity or religion of the perpetrators or the victims. Our habit of selecting what crime to condemn and what neglect does nothing than promoting disunity and violence. The attack on some Christian communities  in Plateau is condemnable. There's no justification to crime whatsoever. But only Government has the power of preventing the happenings of violence of this nature, that is by making sure that the perpetrators have received the punishment they deserve. But so long as malefactors continue to enjoy impunity, violence will continue to happen in the name of reprisal attacks!

A DISTANT ADIEU

I cannot stop Thinking about you In this lengthy night That bars me and you Oh! I was lost in thought Gone mad anticipating That tomorrow will be kind To bewed me with thee I was deep in ween How great will I feel Sitting in front of you Gazing at your charming self I raise my head to sky But all see was dark Where gone those shinny things? They've been sunk in you Alas! I was then awake From the dream I was To the reality that was And the morrow wasn't kind That my dream is a faux And tomorrow I won't see stars And the whole day will be dark Is the most painful thought I had Darling how can I sleep? It's a thief though they say But even thief knows what to take How to take, and when to take Indeed  I have feel today How doleful it's to say adieu To a person one adores Especially when a distance adieu.
