The problem created by problem makers,
Who call themselves, ridiculously, government,
Is push absurdity down the throat of the people,
And expect anything better than stupidity;

These people create burdens,
Designed only for the vulnerable,
Fetter the impoverished with difficulties,
And pass the blame to others than them;

Laughable, the least,
Ignominious, the most,
Ridiculous, in between,
Mendacious, all around;

Other nations do it,
So, why can't we?
But are you a country?
Please, inform my ignorance;

So, when they place the sleigh before the dogs,
And expect movement is any positive direction,
It only shows the extent of their disillusionment,
The sincerity of the toilet, really.
The present government of the Nigeria state wants to increase tax on the already impoverished folks of that country. It is ironic that this government is not concerned about reduces taxes for smaller businesses that actually pusah the wheels of the economy. It will (not) be surprising that the gullibles will still vote this  particular malevolent people back into power. It is only sad that the cycle of impoverishment will only linger on for as long as the people of state finally wake up into consciousness. SAD.
