BEFORE YOU VOTE TOMORROW.

 

Before tomorrow comes
When you stand in the face to face
With the ballot box starring at your face
Standing in a long queue to cast your vote
Remember the state of the nation
And those who brought us to this point in our nation

As our nation
Moves from the home where peace
Co-exist with harmony
Whose long before we know it
We lost the peace at home
And home never home again

As we become strangers
In our home as our motherland
That once flows in milk and honey
Is not been painted in blood RED the colour of an innocent soul
Killed and massacre during

The Endsars protest
The Owo massacre
When our brothers and sisters
Went to worship God and were killed
Right in the presence of their Maker

Before you vote tomorrow
Check your pocket and weigh
The money inside your pocket
Not that you don’t have money
But the ones who govern without feelings locked down all money

And money becomes a scarce commodity
Instead be a common commodity
That can be found everywhere we go
Just like the MTN slogan how do come to this point
Of legal tender is never legal tender as it becomes scarce

Before you vote tomorrow
Remember those in captivities
Of the bandit, kidnapper, and hostages
All because of our security network
Has a breach and its network has broken down.

VIOLENCE HAS NO PLACE IN A DEMOCRATIC ELECTION.


For election to be credible
They must be free fair and peaceful
Everyone should be able to cast
Their vote peacefully and free from violence
Remember is an election not electwar
 
This is a national call
For peaceful expression of our views
Even though we don't agree on one candidate
The goal here is to have a violence-free election
Because in this we can really we are democrat.
 
We have waited so long for this day to come
So lets not go soiling our hands with violence
Let’s go with aim of having a peaceful show
Remember the election is not war but
For us all to come together to reason together
 
In choosing that group of people
That we go speak our mind
In the seat of power are the president and governors
Extending to the representative in the house of assembly
Violence has no place in a democratic election remember
 
If we must move the country forward
It starts in the period of electing
Credible leaders to fit into position
To serve our nation and her citizens
To the best of their best abilities
 
Will unanimously shun violence
Of any type be it verbal abuse or none verbal abuse
Vote buying and bullying of any kind
Hate speech that can stirrup anger
And remember there is life after the election

HOPE ON THE HORIZON FOR A BATTERED COUNTRY


The land is not thriving again
A lot is beclouding our existence
As citizens, state and nation 
We don’t know where to go
Nor who to trust like hope has left us

Forsaken us to our fate
As each man for himself 
God for us all watching from a distance 
We seek a new better country 
Where there is hope for everyone 

We are tired 
We have lost hope
The horizon is not clear again
Our country is in its state of it remain 
As the citizens hope on the horizon of a battered country

A better country that’s not far from here again
Even though hope has been dashed 
Withered away like a flower 
Scourged by the heat of the sun and we still
Hope on the horizon for a battered country

Who was milked and lotted so much from her
Who’s strength is failing her even 
When she is the giant of Africa 
Hope on the horizon still hoping
Even when we stand on a hill 
And yet our sight cannot sight hope afar

But rebirth is about to happen 
The sound of strong emancipation is about to happen
Things are about to change from the old status quo
An army or revolution is breaking out  
I am sure the season of rebirth is now for Nigeria. 

We dare not miss this moment in history!
As history got a date with our country
Our nation has been through a lot
Within the means of lots left 
We must all arise to save the remains of this great nation
Lift up your eyes Nigeria!!!! Your set time is Now!

VOTING TO STAND


Enough of the old saying
Will must do must a new
If we want a new result
If truly we are sick and tired
Of the way things are in this our nation

See is our country
We must face the reality
And see from our inner eyes
That is time to make our vote counts
By all means and in what ways will can

Voting to stand
Will must to the end of the day
From the dawn of the arrival to the pooling bolt
To the dusk of the election day
Isn’t enough to chant and shout of getting PVC

But the PVC must be gotten before the day fine
But will me mark our measure to protect our votes
Which stands truly well thought out strategy
A detailed followed up and backup plans
Voting to stand

Each voters must go with a conscience
Strong enough to be carried away
With the lureness of incentives from the party stakeholders
That will flood the field of the election on the election day
Each one should be his or her neighbors keeper

Serving as a watch dog on that day of election
A clarion call is going out to everyone
Whose sick, tired and be withered
Of the state of our dear nation
This is the time to vote and make it counts

By standing and seeing it counts
And is not vote and go home neither to go play football
But to vote and stand till result is announced after been counted
So prepared to vote leave home filled not hungry on that day

MAKING THE VOTE COUNTS


For long we’ve fought it out
And we got tired and retired to fate
With the saying that it doesn’t count
As each admonitions comes and goes
Making the vote counts

And we march on to the pooling bolt
To engrave our thumb print
On the side of our desired candidate
That we stir the course of our nation
Will que stand in unfavorable weather condition

Come hell hot water
We stood there and make the imprint
Of our thumb on the paper
But many years has come and gone
The question on every lip and mind

Does our vote really count?
Takless of seeing the light of the day
Talkless about seeing it to the collation center
We lost fate in the voting agency
We hand and lost it game over

With all saying
The vote doesn’t count
They have known who will enter
And much more tomorrow we kept on
Saying that it will get better

For how long it we get better
And to talk about vote been counted
At the end of the voting exercise
But this time mumu don do
The veil has fallen off our face

We have seen the light and darkness we can’t take chances of going back
And the decision is reached
Come rain hot water we’re ready
To secure our future this time we’re not just voting and going away
