Nigeria's Silent Killer
Oluwagbenga Abiola

Nigeria's Silent Killer

Nigeria’s Silent Killer Corruption, a malevolent monarch, reigns supreme over Nigeria's landscape. Its dark presence seeps into every pore of the nation, infecting every stratum, every institution, and every soul. With tentacles of greed and deception, Corruption ensnares its victims, slowly suffocating the life out of them. Its venomous fangs inject a toxic cocktail of bribery, embezzlement, and nepotism, rendering its hosts helpless and dependent. In the streets, Corruption masquerades as...

Tears Of Gold

Tears Of Gold

"Tears of Gold" In Nigeria's delta, where rivers flow, A legacy of pain, forever grows. The tears of gold, shed for our past, Echoes of colonialism, forever last. From Soweto's streets to Congo's mines, Our ancestors' blood, forever entwines. In Ghana's forts, where slaves were sold, Our stories hidden, our voices cold. In Rwanda's hills, where genocide reigns, Tears of gold, forever stain. In South Africa's townships, where freedom's call, Echoes of Mandela, forever stand tall. In Ethiopia'...

The barking dog's lament

The barking dog's lament

"The Barking Dog's Lament" A canine chorus, shrill and cold, Echoes through the streets, young and old, A symphony of envy's sting, As I rise, their discontent takes wing. With every step, their yelps resound, A cacophony of jealousy profound, Their tails once wagging, now hung low, As my success makes their hearts grow slow. Like autumn leaves, their pride withers away, As I bloom, radiant, in the fray, Their snarls and growls, a futile cry, Against the tide of my ascending sky. Their e...

Mining for pennies

"Mining for Pennies" In cyberspace, a promise was made, Hamster Kombat, a crypto trade, Mine and earn, with ease and speed, Fortunes awaited, or so they said. But launch day came, and dreams were crushed, The payout trickled, like a rusty hush, A fraction of hopes, a meager share, Left investors stunned, with empty air. Like a balloon that lost its air, Hamster Kombat's promise was beyond repair, The crypto rush turned to dismay, As wallets remained empty, day by day. The hamster's wheel...

If love was a person
Oluwagbenga Abiola

If love was a person

"If Love was a man" If love was a man, he'd be kind and true, With eyes that shine like the morning dew, He'd walk with gentle steps, and a heart so light, Spreading warmth and joy, banishing the night. His touch would heal the deepest wounds, And soothe the soul's most hidden grounds, His voice would whisper sweet melodies, And calm the fiercest of life's symphonies. He'd be a warrior, fighting for what's right, Protecting hearts, and holding tight, Through every storm, he'd stand as a shi...

"Partners in Defiance: A Tale of Woe"

"Partners in Defiance: A Tale of Woe" In twilight's hush, where shadows play, Two rebels conspired, in a secret way. Their whispers wove, a web of deceit, As they schemed against, the light of what's right. With hearts afire, and souls so bright, They forged an alliance, in the dark of night. Their bond was strong, their will unbroken, Together they vowed, to leave the truth unspoken. But like a serpent, their gossip did creep, Poisoning minds, and hearts that did keep. Their words, a wildfir...

Yearning for you

"Yearning for you" In the echoes of memories, I hear your gentle voice Whispers of wisdom, a heartfelt, soulful choice To survive, to thrive, to face each new day Though your physical presence has faded away Your nickname for me, "AB", a term of endearment true Now a distant memory, a bittersweet reminder of you Only you called me that, with a love so pure and kind Now, in your absence, it's a heartache to leave behind Every step I take, a journey through the pain Finding solace in memories, ...

A Bond of Buffoonery

"A Bond of Buffoonery" Two souls, so vacant, like empty space Collided in folly, a wretched embrace United in idiocy, a perfect pair Against a common foe, they joined in despair Their minds, a maze, of meaningless thought A jumble of nonsense, forever caught In a cycle of stupidity, they spin and sway Like puppets on strings, in a foolish display Their words, a jargon, of hollow sound A cacophony of nonsense, echoing all around Their actions, a farce, a comedy of errors A pathetic spectacle, ...

Echoes of Ingratitude

"Echoes of Ingratitude" They lurk in the darkness, with hearts of stone Their souls are barren, devoid of love's sweet tone They take and take, with no intention to give Leaving emptiness, and a heart that's forced to live Their words are venom, dripping with malice and spite A poisonous concoction, that corrodes the light They speak with forked tongues, with a smile so wide But beneath the surface, a cauldron of hatred inside They are the masters of manipulation, with a skill so refined Weav...

The Mask of Sanity

"The Mask of Sanity" Mad men hate to be called mad men For in that label, their power ends They hide behind a mask of reason And claim their sanity, with each new season But actions speak louder than words, they say And in their deeds, their madness sways A subtle dance, of manipulation and guile A game of cat and mouse, with a wink and a smile They shift the blame, with a deft hand And make their victims, take the stand Their words, a poison, that spreads like a stain And leaves the truth, i...

"A mother's reckoning" Chapter 3: "The Shadows Within" Maya's mind was a jumble of questions, each one leading to a dead end. Aria's mysterious nod had unleashed a flood of doubts, and she felt lost and alone. As she dug deeper into her family's secrets, Maya encountered strange things. Doors creaked open by themselves, revealing rooms that seemed to change shape before her eyes. She'd find herself in narrow hallways, lined with old portraits that seemed to watch her every move.

But get only lust, and a bunch of sleaze Their feeds are a mess, a hotchpotch ...

He stomped around, with feet so bold, Like an elephant, with a tale to be told. He roared with laughter, a deafening sound, Like a hyena, who'd just found a clown. He wore a cape, with a giant "A" on his chest, Like a superhero, who'd just failed the test. His superpower? The ability to yell, And make everyo...

"Greed's Devastating Grasp" Greed, a voracious beast that consumes the soul, Leaving devastation, chaos, and a hollow role. A ravenous hunger that can never be satiated, It ravages all, leaving hearts desecrated. With insatiable desires, it takes its toll, Ruining lives, shattering dreams, and losing control. It poisons minds, blinds the sight, Leading down a path of endless, darkest night. In its wake, a trail of anguish is left, Relationships shattered, trust bereft, and hope bereaved. Fami...

The soul takes flight, leaving behind the pain, But for loved ones, the worry remains, like autumn's rain. We weep for the beauty that's lost to our sight, The smile, the laughter, the radiant light. The ground receives it, a seemingly cold embrace, Leaving us to ponder the fate of the mortal race. What happens next? Does the soul find its way? Is it at peace, or does it stray?
