Knowledge is power

Wow

Cool

I live close to the village square
But last night, I had a nightmare
I woke to the chirp of the cricket and fireflies
But the owls cried out their eyes
On top of a withered iroko tree
All night the eyes of the moon were sleep free
I’ve been bothered not by the owls tears
But my people all have rock for ears
The cry of the owls didn’t disturb their snore
But I kept vigil sitting by my door
This morning, I see gyrating vultures under the rain
They know owls don’t cry in vain
The rain got tired but the morning still slow
No wonder, vultures know what the owls know
Now I’m numbering littered corpses
Killers conducting autopsies
I see refugees with loads on trucks and wheelbarrows
I still see those with spears and poisoned arrows
Before these children became orphans and wives widows
Last night I knocked on all doors and windows
The stars and moon will bear witness
Of how you drank sleep and licked its sweetness
You should have heard the wailing owls
Their tears can fill up bowls
Now the black smoke in the air spells war
I wonder what those bulbous eyes of the owls saw
We chose canon over reason
Amnesty over prison
No light, we prefer darkness
No sanity just madness
Tyranny over freedom
For a plate of porridge, we sold our wisdom
Where are the voices that preached free and fair
Now “by any means my brother must remain there”
We trade conscience for stomach infrastructure
And now we question the dance of the vultures
Vultures smile when owls cry
But you and I call it a small fry

Cool stuff

U tried

10nks for sharing

Post of d year

Recycled freshness, I like that.

10. Sergeant Awuse: "If I am bulldozer 1, Wike is bulldozer 10". This is coming from a former serial gubernatorial election loser. From the expression you can deduce the fact that Wike who was relatively nobody when Awuse was at his prime is now a demigod to Chief Awuse and his likes which goes a long was to point out the influence Wike has wielded and a reverse on the path of Awuse. 

9. Lamido: “I will fight my own war in PDP, I cannot fight war for the opposition, let them fight their own war”, the governor said. Lamido had been part of the group of seven PDP governors that formed the now rested New PDP, but stayed back when five of his colleagues left to the APC. 

8. Buhari: “But I felt heavily sorry for myself because I don’t want to go and ask somebody to pay for my nomination forms, because I always try to pay myself, at least for the nomination. N27 million is a big sum, thankfully I have personal relationship with the manager of my bank in Kaduna and I told him that very soon the forms are coming, so, whether I am on red, or green or even black please honor it otherwise I may lose the nomination" GMB while picking up his expression of interest form at APC secretariat.  

7. Governor Amaechi: “When Yar’Adua was alive, Niger Delta Ministry was working. Now, it is only one item; East-West Road and they say he (President Jonathan) is our brother. He is not my brother; my brother is the man who delivers on his services for me. If the President says he is our brother, let him mention one project he has done for us”. On an event in Port Harcourt to mark the landmark Supreme Court judgment that brought him to office in 2007.

6. Governor Rochas Okorocha: “I heard that some of them are boasting of money, but tell them that Rochas has come; any day you hear that PDP brought money with pick-up, tell me so that I will bring money with trailer”. Imo State Governor, Chief Rochas Okorocha, while declaring his intention to run for the 2015 presidential election on the platform of the All Progressives Congress, APC.

5. Olisah metuh: “It is public knowledge that we made an innocent mistake but immediately withdrew it and tendered an unreserved apology well before the official announcement of the new emir was made.” 
After sending a message of congratulations to the wrong person and having to retract the statement afterwards, the leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party has said that it was all an innocent mistake and not a plan to cause havoc as its rival the All progressives Congress (APC) alleges.

4. Abba Moro: “The applicants lost their lives due to impatience; they did not follow the laid down procedures spelt out to them before the exercise. Many of them jumped through the fences of affected centers and did not conduct themselves in an orderly manner to make the exercise a smooth one. This caused stampede and made the environment unsecured,” he said. Following the poorly organized recruitment exercise conducted by the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) that claimed the lives of 13 applicants across the country, Minister of Interior, Abba Moro, laid the blame on the applicants.


3. Governor Fashola: “How does this sound? I heard you lost your child to abductors. Please come and see me at home so I can sympathize with you. This is my paraphrasing of what has so far transpired”. Speaking in Abuja at the birthday lecture of former Bayelsa Governor, Timipre Sylvia, Lagos state Governor, Babatunde Fashola once again threw jabs at President Goodluck Jonathan and Vice President, Namadi Sambo. Fashola claims that having two university graduates at the helm of affairs in Nigeria has made the country worse than it was four years ago.

2. President Goodluck Jonathan: “There is no corruption but mere stealing in Nigeria”, “If I don't contest, Nigerians will feel wan kine" and ‘If Sanusi hadn’t been suspended he would have come up with a different figure… If anyone steals $50 billion or $20 billion anywhere America will know, they will tell you where it is; it is their money” during the last Presidential Media Chat.

1. Patience Jonathan: Na Only You Waka Come? There is God O! Chai Diaris God O! Among others.
This is a caricature of Patience saying, “This Blood You People Are Shearing. There is God ooo…There is God oooo…”
Mrs. Jonathan had summoned the school’s principal, Mrs. Kwarmbula and an unnamed staff of the West African Examination Council, WAEC, over the abduction of 234 schoolgirls by the Boko Haram insurgents on 14 April.
She also sounded to have addressed the Principal as 'prisipal'
While interrogating the principal, the video showed Patience asking the school principal if she came with two teachers, who could probably testify to the issue.
Mrs. Jonathan asked: “What of two teachers that can tell us that they conducted that exam? Do you come with any…Na only you waka come? Okay!”
She then went on endlessly exclaiming, “There is God oh” and then broke down in tears.

I pity all those insulting Bishop Oyedepo because ignorance is not an excuse. He is a great man and people like us have vowed to follow his doctrine even to the end. U better tell God to make u great like him instead of typing trash.
