Day Twenty One
To the corrupt leaders
Of the Federal Republic of Nigeria
The known and unknown
Who secretly dismantle the fibers of this nation
“àwon eni ibi, àwon èèyàn k’éèyàn
Tó ń gbénú òkùkù, tó ń t’afà sínú ìmólè”
We thank you, àbí what shall we do?
Even though we know you won’t last
It’s your children that we pity
When they’ll have to change their names
To avoid the shame you’ll put them through
Men whose souls are sold out to evil
Manufacturers of iniquity
Awon wèèrè, oníranù ‘someborris’
Your days are numbered
Enjoy the money while it lasts
Stupid people
But we thank you
At least you contested
You labored
By book, or crook
You showed up, and won
You are occupying the office
That’s still some responsibility
Thank you.
I am theimisiOluwa; I’m not particularly grateful for these ones.

There are conversations that are well beyond the boundaries of ‘pen on paper’. Some heartfelt and straight-up words that provide context to concepts. That’s what this podcast is about. Here are my musings on Love, Life, and Faith as I probe human thoughts and thoughts around these themes. Sometimes, I’m right. Sometimes, I way out of line. And at other times, I’m just as clueless. Trust me, It’s going to be a funny, yet insightful, and inspiring ride. Buckle your seat belts.
Ever heard of that song that says it is impossible for a butterfly to extinguish a barbecue fire? Well, that’s a true saying, but…..
There are truly impossible things, but only within given contexts. Seasons change, miracles happen, content changes, change happens, discoveries are made, and what seems to be impossible becomes possible.
