Democracy Day: In Searching of Lasting Democracy

I was born in the month of May

And the Lord of May bless that month

Making it so special that our nation

Was visited by that Lord of May

Making her become democrat on that same month

May 29 was the day she become a democrat state

But after many years

The question on every lips is

Are we really democrat indeed and practice

Does the constitution live out what was written in it?

Not just written but been lived out practice to the letter

To every minute details

Or we are just chasing shadow

Walking in the dark fooling ourselves

Never want to come to the knowledge of the truth

Everything seem not to be fine but we carry along as if all is well

We’ve come thus far

And I see that now is the time

To wake up search for that missing black goat

Before night falls or else it will be lost forever

We are in search of that lasting democracy

Where and how was it lost?

When was it lost?

What happen to it?

We’ve got to ask questions

To seek nothing else but real truthful sincere answer

We can’t seat and pretends as if all is well even in the well

I call on every one

Who believes in this nation?

Who got what it takes to wake up to the call

The call of nation building is never to left to certain individuals

 That calls to change the course of our beloved nation

Am not calling for complainers

Neither am calling those who have lost faith

Am not calling on government critics

Neither am I searching for a temporal democracy

But am in search of a lasting democracy

And that person is no other person but you reading this! With myself not left out

Democracy Day: Recovering the Lost Democracy

I know we’ve been through a lot

As a nation in the past years

Has become so many troubles

With heartaches that comes along with

Event unfold with each attached with bitter experiences

The government is thrown into confusion

As she has lost its efficacy and immunity

Leaving sheltered and whether by the storm that ravage the state of the nation

As caution is thrown into the wind

No trust, faith and confident anymore

Everything is in deserter

Each one watches out for himself

No one wants to arise to duty

Folding hands seating just there

Wanting to do less to nothing

What can I do?

Am I the government?

Things have been this way for long

Let me too have the national cake

Without not saying anything

Yet each day

Things are getting spoil

No hope of redemption

Its song are gone to lost

Is this how will can recover the lost democracy

That was lost

To corruption…nepotism

Drunken with the wine of malpractice

Intoxicated with low infrastructural facilities

We march on from one celebration to another

Yet everything remain the same

Carrying along with the slogan

It will get better lets shall be praying

One day all will be well even in the well

Dig so deep within

Far beyond human comprehension

That we often ask ourselves

Where is this country going to? What is she turning into?

Democracy: Where Do Will Go from Here?

Will have come this far

We can not afford to loose out

In the age long time war of it all

Through this years we’ve stood up

Standing tall blazing each challenges as they come

The storm that has be whether our land

The system is infected with virus

And yet the antivirus never runs out of date

Still afresh fighting the virus been up to date

Where do will go from here?

Should we still remain where we are?

Claiming, pretending all along as though nothing is happening

And yet the problems keep uprising never down rising

Are will going to seat and watch what our hero past

Deteriorate amounting to waste as their labour been in vain

See I say No to that will can’t just afford to fail

Wake up to nothing but nation building

No one, I repeat no one can build this nation for us

But we, you and I got to build this nation

Because this is your land my own fatherland

Talking, complaining, abusing and criticism

Will never take us to no where but right there on one spot

The time has past the hour of round table talks

With so much long time in the conference room

Without no action either concrete result

Now is the time of innovation

Lets move, talk-less and with much action

Action in the government of the day

Among its citizens doing what is utmost right

Making sure everyone is a watch to his/her neighbour

Where do will go from here?

As citizens are you not sick and tired of it all

This are the days when we got to know the true parrot

Of this great nation of ours now is that time

As will embark on this course of nation building.

Putting the system back to work

The power sector…education sector

Political sector…the economic sector

Infrastructural with the social life of the people

Democracy Day: Its Dividend

How long have we been here?

At this hallowed spot when we emerge

To take the baton of been democrat

In practice and in the government of our beloved nation

After so many years and how far has it been

Many years has come and gone

When democracy was born into the system

But what of now how is it and how well has it been

Have we succeed retain the relay intention of democrat

In governance of the our beloved country

A country where peace and justice reigns

Has it not turn out to be a place where injustice prevail

In the land or where tranquility is ruled out

Corruption, corruption has never been sent to life in jail

Still fighting without any sign of conquest

Democracy Day: Its dividend 

Of what have we achieve for the past fourteen years

We’ve been democrat what has those fourteen solid years become

Have we able to attain been a democrat state

Or we still practicing the military rule in disguise of been democrat

Has it not come to terms?

That all this shading corrupt practice

Must leave the country to that journey of no return

See we’ve got to awake to nation building

The past fourteen years has been so many tremendous happening

We can’t afford to wait for God knows when

Saying with the age long term slogan

One day e go better, which day will that day be?

When are will going to really gain independent from all this menace

See that to that

My fellow comrade

Is time to held that call to nation building

We come thus far we know the truth now

Not like those days anymore each one should ask questions

Seeking a prefer working solution

Enough of the endless round table conference

Democracy: In Face of the State of the Nation

The country today

Is scheduled with various issues

Each day issues kept uprising

The moment we are trying to solve one

Another one spring up with wow speech

Each sector of the economic

Is face with the greatest hazard

Of insecurity not been able to face it up

The power is over killing as business suffers retrogression

Many stays afloat others suffer insolvency

The state of the nation today

With democracy will thought

We could actually move forward

As at when democracy was born

But many years has come and gone

What has that practice been able to achieve

And of what innovation has we done

Between then and now after fourteen years

Of the arrival and birth of democracy

Have fully been able to say yes of a truth we are democrat

Democrat! Really

In practice or lifestyle

In ruling or ruled

Among the laws and customs of the land

In reformation and transformation

Democracy today is it as the same things as five years ago

See the time has gone past the  hours

So wake up we can not just afford

To fool ourself again pretending all is well

When nothing is fine at all let’s call a spade, a spade

Can’t you see that all is not well?

All what is needed now is change, yes a passionate change

Change void of violence and all manners of selfish ambition

But must come with a peaceful protest

In protesting we must not sacrifice self dignity in place of bribery

We must seek to see everything comes to normalcy and done in a right well
