AMNESTY FOR ALL
AMNESTY FOR ALL When officials of government put pens on paperThey steal to build mansions and buy the latest carsPeople clap and the encore linger on and onImmunity Clause comes in, high on demand When robbers rob with guns and machetesThey too steal from where they did not sowFear grips all those caught around the sceneThe Dead are given sentences ahead of the case When militant youths carry arms and ransackNiger Delta creeks, a meandering maneuverKidnaps take a toll on ransom, no one is safeThe House of Lords calls for laws to tackle the menace We are quick to carry stones, to enact anarchy into lawKill a helpless harlot of our time; this is all we want to doThe master writes again on the sand, take a peep and a testLet him without sin cast the first stone… go and sin no more
