The Public Series: I Am No Saint

I Am No Saint https://nairametrics.com/2021/01/14/nigerias-total-public-debt-rises-to-n32-2-trillion-84-57-billion-as-at-september-2020/ Disgusted by how they acted in public, We advised them privately - devoid of optics. Had to be the bigger person. But should I stay big? Look around. What do you see? If you relish my destruction, do not expect gentle scolds. I am no saint. Some screamed in public view, still no change. Sweet words and soft pokes ushered cages. Had to be the bigger person. But should I stay big? Look around. What do you see? If you plan to be subjective, do not expect me to be objective. I am no saint. By Sylvanus Nabena Twitter: @slynabena

The Public Series: Saving My Mother

Saving My Mother https://freedomhouse.org/country/nigeria/freedom-world/2022 Like a 'fat man' struggling to get out of a stampede, my efforts seem futile But I try - I must because this is my home I am resolute because maybe this next act saves my mother, Like a mad man sailing against the wind, my dedication seams pointless  But I care - I care because this is my home I am resolute because maybe this next sacrifice will save our mother.

The Public Series: What Must Be Done

What Must Be Done https://www.shutterstock.com/image-vector/hands-pointing-corrupt-lying-politician-bad-1880693971 They entered through the back door! But are household names now. Increasingly desperate and restless, To keep what was never theirs. But their facelift has gone wrong. Sweet talk is now gone. I can see through it. I know what must be done.
