Nigeria’s Impending Doom

Allow me to borrow 2Pac Shakur’s poem ‘Liberty Needs Glasses’ to make my point. This may appear contradictory at first but I beg you to read the whole thing:Liberty Needs Glasses by 2Pac Shakurexcuse me but lady liberty needs glassesand so does mrs justice...

I’m 27 18 seems like yesterday and 27 seemed like eternity Yesterday seems like yesterday when we used to dance to ‘O-P-P’ and style our haircuts like Bobby brown.18 was when Toni Braxton wanted to 'Breath again' and Shabba Ranks was the 'Champion lover'. 18 seems like its just gone by a second ago when we starched our school uniforms and wore our long white socks up to our dry ashy kneesonly to be...
