Poem with a passport

Nigerian Passport

African time’

‘African time’

What immorality!

What indiscipline!!

 

African time

A disgrace to African society

A disgusting culture in Africa

 

African time

It has brought various evils to Africa

It erases time consciousness in the mind of Africans

And affects the value of time in Africa

 

African time

It turns many African to procrastinators

Who have no value for time, seeing it as valueless element

 

African time

Imagine the situation in Africa

Where an important event is scheduled to hold at a particular time

Surprisingly many show up at the eleventh hour

And for this, the occasion will be held at a later time

 

African time

Coincidentally every sector of administration in Africa is affected

In the family and in the school

Even in the religious circuit

 

African time

Ever heard of American and European time?

Oh!

There is nothing like that

 

Alas! Alas! Africans

Wake up and say no to this disgusting culture

Go against it, to clear away disgrace in Africa

African time… say no to it.
