I heard that purpose brought her to this
earth:
Stationed in the vision that navigates her
moves
As diligence summons celebrations to be situate at the corridors of grace who will never cease to amaze Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala.

We were locked down in hunger;
Left to survive in pain:
What do you expect?

We weren't considered afterwards...
Mandated to pay duties, out of the blue:
What do you expect?

We heard of the bill notes
That were meant to locate our accounts
Dancing through the fire unseen:
What do you expect?

We left the down unlocked
Still in the drama that caused us pain:
What do you expect?

A pacified beings or
An irate crowd?
The unexpected unlocked itself.

They were called lazy
Until they lazied out to the streets
To make unusual history
That took the lives of those
That paid the price.

As a child, I saw people being criticized because of their various endeavours: the society sees lawyers, doctors and certain white-collar jobs as the only dignified jobs.

Although some lawyers and professors could barely feed then but respected in their professions.

Most youths didn't help matters but thank God, their eyes are open to the beautiful reality. They have gone ahead to garnish most of the jobs they detest to suit themselves, thereby showcasing it with style.

A certain woman called me recently and asked: "what do you do for a living now?" I replied, "I am a sales representative." She started hooting like a shunting trailer. I asked myself one thing, so some people still has this mentality of looking down on people because of their endeavours?

I started representing reputable foreign companies from teenagehood. Travelling from state to state, showcasing some brands wherein business owners welcomes me with open arms. I wasn't doing it for the money then but for the fact that I make great sales for my company even when the products are new. It was fun for me.

Business minded, don't care how some people look at me until I went back to school. As a diploma student, you can hardly catch me in class if the lecturer is not there but nearby, transacting from one company to the other. Until I decided to focus fully at a certain level in my degree days.

I wonder why anyone should be ashamed of his or her endeavour. I also wonder why anyone should mock someone because of his or her endeavour. Success could be very mysterious. The endeavour one left behind today could break another through, tomorrow.

If you are a mechanic, tailor, carpenter, Barrister, doctor, teacher, engineer, contractor, trader, sales representative and etcetera. Be proud of what you do.

To all the health workers out there
Who placed their lives on the line for this challenge:
you are like the soldiers, fighting and falling for their nations.
You would have chosen to resign;
You would have chosen to go on leave
But you stayed to put in your best...

We just want to say: "thank you!"

While some men deceitfully comes to lewdly hit and run with some ladies who equally responds with the intention of procreation unknown to the donors.
These men goes with the shoulders of "I have done it" and results to gossipry with their cliques.
Whereas the ladies in question goes on celebrating the beauty of the seeds growing inside their wombs.
If the men involved finds out about the aforementioned and expects to be chased about for marriage: they might end up wasting their time especially when the ladies concerned are financially enabled.

The table doesn't revolve around one option anymore.
The motive behind the acts speaks in riddles these days.
Let's learn to respect ourselves.

June, June!
Jolly me as you go,
Breaking throughs in your flows,
Keeping me in your peace
As jolly good fellows
Sniffing around for jolly good vibes.
