INDIGNANT JUDGMENT

The glamour for change
The face of uncertainty
The search for a messiah
Warranted by our sorry state
Tilted will of people in battle
With self-proclaimed patriots
Craving for glory and power
Phantom bubbles of leadership

First African American
Our erstwhile Goodluck
The people began to wonder
Insecurity and job lost
Loosing homes
Leading to occupy cities
Questions are many
Answers are few

Millions of living dead
Lined up unwillingly
To take turn in the graves
Change in constant mode
Stubborn stiffed necks demand
The head of an unwilling leader
And call for a replacement
