NIGERIA @ 55 A WONDERFUL POEM BY AWARD WINNING POET:OLOWOKERE J. O
NIGERIA AT 55
Collective qualities blended with capitalism
A defeat juncture for corruption
The change we seek is come
With principles of revival and a plodding indications of dew
Foolishness and stupidity: the old autograph
A novel Jerusalem with a David on the throne
Nigeria at fifty-five having forty winks but awakened by the Great Fulani Giant
The old hoodwinks who once lacked a vision eventually found one for themselves
Fifty and five years of puzzlement and fraud
Now kicked out by the GREAT BUHARI OSINBANJO
A land of blood now that of peace, focus point of prominence
Free trade sector, firm grip on economy, they rule in infinity
This far-sighted ‘smart growth’ nation budding at a speed alarming
Premeditated operation, astounding; a classic epoch in modern history
Out-competing the past legend, now fusty, yet not depleted.
Finest use for the books, practicability of projects, not in scepticism
Nigeria classically polished, glamorous. Breathtaking model, focused in competence building.
Great positioning, fresh drive into determination. A desire to be fulfilled.
