LETTER FROM THE POET TO THE STAKEHOLDER
Dear government,
Are you to be praise or blame ?
You that is elected among the multitude,
Just to give the masses gratitude.
You so called the government,
That do not to the work of improvement,
But more to destruct the electorate’s interest,
Woo!!! To you, that is given a cross,
But do less to its carriage.

Dear Alfa/pastor/prophet,
What can we say about you?
That connect people with God,
But improve not your connection with God,
What can we learn from a so called Alfa?
What of you called pastor?
But you know we call you a prophet ,
Why did you intend to do no of what you preach ?
You are given the world,
But your home is a shrine of deity.

Dear boss,
Oh! You own a company,
Is that the end of the world ?
You still leave to see more,
Less your anger and raise down your shoulder,
What ought to your success,
What ought to your praise,
What ought to your arrogance,
Can ought to nothing,
But, vanity tomorrow.
Therefore, beware !!!

Dear soldier,
Laughter to you, we call to protect,
But, do not than to humiliate,
With your militant power.
Don’t forget you have the power today,
Tomorrow can be another story.
So, be vigilant .

Dear harlot,
Shame upon you, the brightness of tomorrow,
That turn off to an harlot,
You think you are good looking?
Shame to your body
Seen by multitude,
Don’t forget, Aids is real.
What is the cost of patience ?
That is hard to buy.
What is the cost of prayer?
That you overlooked like a waste of saliva.
Remember, the Old woman on your street
Is once in your shoe,
Before her flesh fade off.

Dear parents,
Pity unto you, parents that guide not,
You’ve forgotten your duty,
You’ve forgotten your future, 
Look on the street and see youths,
That do good in life.
What will it take just for you to care?
And reshape the life of your child.
Have you forgotten that what a man sow shall reap.
So, think!!!

Dear thief,
You that enter and invest sorrow unto others,
Oh! This made me poignant
To you that use people’s tears
For your survival, remember,
You met all on earth and surely,
Shall you leave all.
Remember, the last day that you will see on earth.
You that steal the  labor of others
And think you will go on and enjoy,
Surely, all shall vanish.

Dear husband,
Mercy unto you, the breadwinner,
That work not for his household,
But to celebrate those that leave for nothing.
You left home while your wife is in sorrow,
You left your children in disharmony,
Pity unto you, for your future will be difficult.
Can’t you think?
Can’t you reason?
And reshape your ways to acquire the future.

Dear wife,
Laughter unto you, you that do not to care,
Here is your husband doing house choruses
And here you are watching movies.
Here you are where your children are starving.
Party is your priority, while your fruit
Are nothing to you, weep and sorrow is
The food you cook which your family eat.
What is your relevance, when you are
Well dressed but your children are awful.
What is praise?
When your children recognize you not.

Dear Doctor,
You that is ask to save lives
Is it because of money?
You kill souls.
Is it because of wealth?
You turn to an assassin.
Hmm!! Life is nothing to you.
You indulge in drug trafficking,
And other forms of crime.
Is it because of your profession?

Dear lawyer,
You that is ask to protect people’s interest
But, do not to that and turn to liars.
Do you want it to stain your dignity?
Must you lie to survive?
Must you because of wealth send people
To where their not be?
You are known as law interpreter,
Does that mean you should interpret lies.
Hmm! Sorry to your future,
Where corruption will be a normality.

Dear Lecturer,
We ask you to impact knowledge,
Not to input testes,
That turns Wi-Fi that all students must connect before succeeding in your course.
You that because of today’s enjoyment
Destroy your students' future.
You that because of money,
Distribute mark like father Christmas.
Remember, what you award today
May be a bundle tomorrow.
So, be careful!!

Dear Ritualist,
You that believe in the adage
That says if you don’t eat man,
You can’t become a man.
Everything is not money,
Or can money buy long life?
Absolutely no, then,  what is your joy?
When you enjoy life and destroy your heaven.
Therefore, reason!!!

Dear police, 
You are asked to maintain law and order,
Not to become a beggar.
What is your contribution to the country?
When disharmony is here and there,
What have you projected for the future
Than to eat like glutton.
What law have you maintained?
What order have placed?
You that we plead on to save,
But now you fade .
Be careful!!!
