Silent tongues… pulseless policies

The cold, the dead, the

 hopless:

Your brows furrowed in eternal contemplation

Your silent tongues swollen with unutterable knowledge

Death is all knowing, yet allowing nothing.

             -Toni Kan

IT’S already a month since the spluttering of gun shots, battering of bullets and ripping of the lives of innocent protesters of EndSARS movement.

It’s been a month since the flag of Nigeria was soaked in its citizen’s blood by those who were meant to protect the lives of these citizens.

Normalcy has returned, no one is talking about the death of those innocent people; as a matter of fact, the matter is on the verge of being buried.

However, thanks to revelations by the Cable News Network, CNN, some actions are being taken to see the end road of injustice.

Although Nigerian government has decided to dig deep into the case and bring to fore those involved in the killing, the way things are going, it’s beginning to look like a child’s play; even in the court room, evidences are being manipulated.

What a symbolic dubious attitude!

It baffles me to know that the government care more about their bodies than their citizens.

Why must it take the involvement of CNN to push the government into investigating the cases of the killed protesters. Still at that, it’s obvious that all these magomago is hypocritical. The cavalier attitude of those in authorities have been a great worry to the people of this nation.

They failed to listen to the plight of the people they are governing; how can an intense protest that shook other countries be like a drama to its country’s presidency?

What a recalcitrant, unswerving and emotionless government.

Anyway, it’s okay, let them keep being lackadaisical; surely, one-day, the consequence will not only be grevious but diastrous.

Dear, tune the radio and never mind

That it deadens the hammer

With clinically pulseless policies.

This is a nation with capacious cars for

A concatenation of administrative mirabilia.
