SNAFU by Dauda Onawola

SNAFU (Situation Normal All Fucked Up)

The home of talent, a land so blessed;
Where ought to prevail runnels of milk and
honey;
Nature's depot of solid goodies
Yet in ruins of imaginary lines.

As a nation, giant of the world;
As states and zones, befuddled dwarf;
Thus shall Niger Area exist;
By the state of the nation, which was our choice?

The king is in the north but the crown dwells in the south;
The rich is with the cash but the poor bear the brawn;
The king and the crown thrives in rivalry
While the rich and the poor reside in castle of enmity.

A liner in which everyone on board squabble with one another,
Bickering not excluding the captain and the crew,
How far will it drift?
When capital competes with labour, how enormous is the expected yield?
