By David Chukwudi Njoku
She needs your attention
Not your incessant castigation,
Neither your deception
Nor complex aggravation.
She is in the midst of water
Yet cry for water.
She is a succour to many
Yet her citizenry begs.
Her leaders full of treachery,
Live in affluence
While her electorates starve of hunger.
Pray for her.
Killings is a norm,
Her wealth is for the rich,
While the masses swims in abjectness.
Abuse is their watchword.
Pray for her peace,
If you love her,
Your prosperity anchors on it.
Pray, pray and pray.
