"Ala Beke" Poem by Raimi Babatunde

"Ala Beke"



"Ala Beke"
God's own country
What is the hype?
Fix your country
To reduce brain drain
Kill corruption
Lest it kills us
We're tired of exodus
To a foreign land
Built by visionaries
Be advised
Once you get to "Ala Beke"
You are just another dude
With a funny accent
You become a second class
Let's fix our nation
