Making A Real Difference.
Sọrọ sókè is a Yoruba phrase that serves as a prompting to speak louder, speak up, or speak more assertively.
This phrase has been co-opted both online and offline as a response by Nigerian youths engaged in the #EndSARS protest.
Pete Pete is exactly what I imagined a 9ice and Asa collaboration to sound like. And no. They did not disappoint.
Majek Fashek was not scared to use his voice. Even when he was plagued by lots of personal demons, he still continued to give music his best. He continued to bless the world with melodious tunes that helped people with their personal battles.
Some people get addicted to what was supposed to be a temporal source of release and pleasure. We find our “high” and want to remain there. This has led to misuse, abuse, and dependence on drugs, alcohol, sex, relationship, porn, game, gambling, and others.
There is a saying that accompanies a story I read as a kid. “While Rome burned, Nero fiddled”. Is that the best way to describe Nigeria and her leaders?
Cast your vote for people you genuinely believe in. Fortune does favors the bold. Fortune also favors the wise voters.
Oh God of creation,
Direct our Noble cause.
Guide our leaders right,
And if they insist on going left, leave them to Sango and Amadioha, let thunder Strike them.
Mr Ballot Box Snatcher, what’s up?
You have been paid to go on another snatching spree, you have been instructed on which polling station to disturb, you have picked your accomplices, please tell me, is it worth it?
The YMCMPP have come to the realization that one of the major things holding back this potentially great nation from progressing is unfaithfulness among lovers.
We the National Electoral Reform Association, having witnessed a second consecutive postponement of Nigeria’s General Election have decided to speak up.
As much as thunder isn’t going around striking every deserving person right now, I’ll advise you don’t go around doing things that will make people pray “thunder strike you”.
You don’t want to be the person the strikes start with.
May we not be used to nonsense. May we not trade our expectations for crumbs. May our expectation not be cut short.
O God of creation,
Direct our noble cause.
Guide our leaders right,
Help our youths the truth to know.
And give them the wisdom to process this truth, the strength and boldness to act on this truth, and the will to vote for the right leaders, based on this truth.
How much is a dream worth? How much should a future be sold for? Even Martin Luther King and his dream, how much was it worth?
It has come to our attention at the YMCMPP that as much as Nigerians love the festive seasons, the government of Nigeria at all levels doesn’t catch the festive spirit. At all.
There is a rising sentiment among Nigerians that the government should sell the country, share the proceeds, so we can all move on with our lives.
Despite how funny that sounds, a ridiculous amount of people are actually buying more into the idea daily.
They picked Akanni up one morning
Beat him soft like clay
And stuffed him down the belly
Of a waiting jeep.
What business of mine is it
So long they don’t take the yam
From my savouring mouth?
Fellow countrymen, we at the National Trekkers Union have decided to bring some things to public knowledge, so you all can be aware of why we take our next line of action.
We at YMCMPP believe that the time has come for Nigeria to build her own wall. It is going to be the tallest, grandest and most beautiful wall this planet has ever hosted.
In conclusion, if you choose to be blind, that doesn’t negate the fact that the beautiful ones have already been born, and we have no intention of minimizing our beauty.
Nigeria has a thousand and one problems calling for our attention. This generation has decided that police reforms, beginning with the disbandment of the now dreaded Special Anti Robbery Squad.
Join us to spread this message until the government hear us; #EndSARS

#StopPoliceBrutality
