Baba, 24 years after Overtake don Overtake you, We are still Upside Down,  suffering and smiling because of Beasts of No Nations and International thief Thief dem. Vagabonds continue to be in power. Our politicians have become Opposite People.

24 years  after you departed, we are still Zombies. Abami Eda, In our dear nativeland Nigeria, Everything Scatter. The new generation of Nigerian separatists are boldly threatening our nation with Sorrows, Tears and Blood. Baba, I wished you were here so we can give them Roforofo fights to free us  from being Original Suffer Heads.

Baba please do not let me disturb you further with our lives of No Bread. Politicians continue to steal our babanla money and make Shakara with the loot before our eyes.

Our police don turn to Beasts Of No Nation. Dem don carry Alagbon Close go Police Force Headquarters, Abuja where dem key kill, dey loot, dey burn, dey jail common people dem by force. Everyday na the same thing, baba!.All the Unknown Soldiers go waka comot from Barracks, dey beat and burn  poor market people and spare parts dealers. Dem too go burn market, gradually.

Chai. Baba. Our Nigeria matter na Open and Close as young Nigerians nor wan give our wuruwuru leaders Palava. We dey for Naija, Suffering And Smiling, watching nasty BBNAIJA as young Lady wan become master.

Our only hope na to sing and dance for Mosque, Church and Shrine, praying that our last water no get enemy.

Baba I wished you were here make you see and hear how police commissioner don become friend-friend to yahoo boy, became “Obioma the tailor” for small tief and how him became his Chief security and thug.  Leh me come and be going ja re before I carry Ikoyi blindness.
