Our world will never remain the same




Like a dream, thoughts were cast and statements were made, sown like seeds
Nobody thought they will land, let alone grow and stay in the heart of men
Alas! The chord struck resonated, it resonated with those who call themselves patriots
The chord sounded like the one we just heard across the sea
The sound became louder and it was re-echoed

The time came, and choices were made
Before we know what was going on, our greatest nightmare has become a reality (came true)
The realty TV actor and pseudo-business mogul has been elected the leader of the most powerful country in the world
Our world will never remain the same again – which way, no one can tell
But there are lots of fears, that we may be reaching the beginning of the end

Those who were trusted to make this change are convinced that this is what is needed
But no one knows if they knew the full import of their decision
While some held on to the promises that are too good to be true
Some just wanted a change at all cost
A change that looks different from what they have known
Some even called this the hand of God, a fulfillment of His prophesy and promises
Many did not even know what they voted for, a savior or a monster

May evil days be far from us
May the change we anticipate not change our world in a way we will be no more
Our world will never remain the same

THERE IS A SHORT WINDOW FOR PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST, CONCERNED PARTIES SHOULD GRAB IT WITH BOTH HANDS

Exactly a year today, the terror organization Hamas struck terror in the hearts of Israelis. Over 1200, mostly innocent people were murdered in cold blood in the most barbaric way. The evil wrecked by Hamas reminds us of the evil we are capable of as humans if we think there will not be any form of accountability. The attack is condemned in all of its forms. Such should never happen again. My heart goes out to families mourning dead family members, and those still waiting for their families taken hostage to return to them alive.   Since then, the Israeli army has unleashed terror of their own on Hamas, in the process killing so many innocent Palestinians in an attempt to exterminate Hamas, and their own terror continues, mostly on innocent Palestinians. Israel engaged in what some called genocide by cutting off water, food, power, internet, and major resources to over 2 million Palestinians in Gaza. The world has condemned the way Israel is prosecuting the war because they have bee...

Wannabee Prime Minister that is Denigrating her Native Country... for What?

Omo ale lo maa hun fi owo osi j'uwe ile baba eh - it is a BASTARD child that uses the left hand to describe her father's house.... We should speak honestly about our country, but when you hold a position like Kemi does decorum is essential. She could say the same thing in a way that will not impact the lives of ordinary Nigerians who live and make a honest living across the globe. She is an opposition leader for crying out loud... She is dragging her native country deep into the mud to gain cheap popularity.... She will need the votes of Nigerians if she will ever be Prime Minister one day. Every letter of her words will come back to hunt her... I trust Nigerians in the UK will not only mobilize against her, but they will also mobilize other Africans and Carribeans to shun her...
