ACCIDENTAL DISCHARGE

Corruption had forced its ugly face into Nigeria

Despite lip-service fight against it by the government

Its presence had become a cynosure in the country

In politics, it takes the lead with gimmicks

In the judiciary, it had bent the law in its favour

In the schools, it had encouraged lassitude and mediocrity

In the church, its charm is not resistible

Yet, Nigerians are robbing Nigerians to pay Nigerians

O! What a shameful day

Corruption had resurfaced

Intertwined Nigerians firmly like Siamese twins

By greed, a land is embezzled

A surplus infrastructure in deficit

Due process had become a national Anthem

Law breaking had become the order of the day

Nigeria!

O! What a bad child from good parents

A nation blessed, yet cursed

A land sanitized, yet guilty

 A land cleansed, yet soiled

A name so melodious, yet disgusting

A home so hospitable, yet non-habitable
