OGONILAND
Ogoniland
Our promise land
The people’s pride
The world’s prey
Our oil
Our fertile land
Our streams and its treasures
Oh! What a legacy
Ogoniland
The struggle crowd
The victory-sure land
The mass joint
Our classrooms
Our talents and culture
Our future Our life
Our past stars
Our offsprings
Our fore-father’s land
Our forth-kids land

This Poem titled ‘OGONILAND’ is dedicated to our dearest activist and writer, Ken Saro Wiwa and the other Ogoni9; to commemorate November 10th – Ogoni Remembrance Day. May their Active Souls Rest in Peace… Amen!
