9/11

 
Sparrows flew at eight past
In a haste to catch the early morning train
Flapping wings heard from troubled beast souring
A beautiful sight we behold then the screams

The bang swallowed the sound of the coming train
We watched the sky for the fleeing black smoke running insane
Debris and concrete fell from the sky like rain
For the twin towers no umbrella or shades came

Cars crashed into another as men deranged
We watched in terror as the second plane came
It was a disaster, a sudden hurricane
It swept away hearts, lives & souls
We remember this day
The eleventh september that never left us the same.

Years you questioned if God exists. Why do we go through tough situations? It is true we do not always know what God is doing, sometimes he ...

How FG Butchered its Anti-Graft War: Antidote From History

President Muhammadu Buhari and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo Paul AremoOluwa Corruption is not a vice peculiar to the civilisation of modern man and his society. For all centuries it has been a thorn in the flesh of just persons. It strangles justice and systematically leads to the breakdown of law and order. The FG’s anti-corruption campaign suffered a lot of setbacks recently: anti-corruption agencies lost court cases, fisticuffs ensued between the executive and legislature, the presidency and the judiciary, blames were traded between the Chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption ( PACAC ) Professor Itse Sagay (SAN) and Attorney-General of the federation, Mr. Abubakar Malami (SAN). Where do we go from here?
