We live in a mansion.
We see our neighbours from our tall building far off.
We eat oatmeal, omelette, bread and tea in the morning,
But our neighbours eat akamu - cornmeal
Our family has eight cars; Mercedes Benz 450, Lexus Jeep, Acura Jeep, etc.
But my neighbours have their foot-wagons
We have 5 Drivers and one is dedicated to drive us to school and bring us back,
Two drivers drive our daddy around, one drives our mommy to her shop and the fifth is a standby.
Daddy always talk on the phone calling millions later billions in Naira, Dollars and Pound Sterlings.
Last time I saw one of our neighbors begging daddy for fifty Naira to buy Panadol
Daddy said " you people are lazy", I worked for my money.
When I was sick and unable to eat due to fever daddy called an Ambulance.
Daddy sent me to America for medical check up but
My neighbour's son was carried like a bag of cocoa on okada to the road-side
medicine store for treatment.
One of my neighbours delivered a baby boy in Iya Abiye's house.
Because no money to pay medical bill at the Government Hospital
Every Sunday we go to church with daddy and mommy.
We have separate seats meant for our family each time we go to church.
Daddy always read a verse assigned to him during the service.
We are looked at as successful people because we have money and properties.
Every Friday daddy and mommy always come home late and well-dressed
after attending parties upon parties.
My five siblings are scattered in Foreign countries, America, Canada, London, Russia
and Rome where they are studying.
My daddy has just only 6 different girl friends
The ladies have different body shapes and complexion.
They are on daddy's payroll every month.
Just last month mommy queried why daddy gave out money
in Dollars and pound sterlings to these ladies, daddy claim are his friends' daughters!
This morning I woke up and saw twenty EFCC officials
and five army trucks full of fierce looking soldiers surrounded our house
They whisked daddy who was still in his Pyjamas away.
Later, mommy peeped through the bathroom door where she was hiding
Mommy asked me if daddy was beaten up by the soldiers?
I asked mommy "is daddy an armed Robber"?
Mommy answered; "No
"But Daddy took money meant to fight our enemies"
My neighbours now call me son of a thief.
At school, my school mates no longer play with me
They tease me, asking me “when is Daddy coming back home?”
Money meant to develop Local Government disappeared,
Money meant to develop States gone with the wind,
Projects paid for were not executed
Hospital Funds totally mismanaged
Roads Construction paid for but projects not executed.
Pension funds gone! Pensioners die in dozens daily.
EFCC is coming after Local Government Chairmen,
Corrupt Governors must start losing their sleep
Chairmen of government parastatals, listen, if you run you can't hide.
Those who collected =N=7b alias “May God be with you”
this time around it is "May EFCC be with you soon".
