Upon the oath of getting into office
He blasted the whole city
With a chant of handling over
To Lagosian of a mega city
That Lagos is for all of Lagosian
Many years have come and gone
Did he really deliver the that mandate
Of making Lagos a commercial hub
Of a great mega city he profess from day one
Or is this sentence transforming
Lagos to a mega city
Only effected on certain areas of the city
Called Lagos is it only restricted
To city of power of the state
The government house and office environs
Then the highbrow centers in the city of Lagos
What about the mainland
Like okoko, Makoko Igando, Ijedodo
Ajegunle, Ijabandi, Mafoluku, Ishuti, Apapa-Tican
Lasu Iyanoba, Jakande gate roads to mention a few
How far our dear governor has gone
Or do you transform Lagos
On the merit of those who live
In a particular city in Lagos
In given them good road, light and the rest
Is Lagos really a mega city or miga city
How far the state of insecurity
Of Lagos that has collect several awards of insecurity
Nothing is secure yet your cruse around
With security personnel all in the name
Of protocol officer yet you claim the state is safe
How far with small scale business owners
Are taxing from your government
Not making them encounter on daily basis
The struggle to stay afloat while they run
Their business on daily basis
Yet you called it a mega city
How far good road network
How far security to the Lagosian
How far steady power supply
How traffic and waste management
To this end search yourself
Project awarded was done
On favouring a godfather
Who lives within the environment
Of where such a project was done
What of the other cities in the state
Where no godfather is living
What of the common man there
Who wail about the state of that cities
Just because no past government official
Occupies that particular area
Soon your tenure will be over
Will you say you've delivered your mandate
Of handling out to Lagosian
Of a mega city you promise
Lagos a mega city or miga city?
