Election Palaver (Part 4) Poem by Kingsley Egbukole
Election Palaver (Part 4)
The plain electoral process
Is confused by operators
Shouting, pushing and fighting
As hustle, hassle agents haggle
And first to come is last to leave
Many more leave disfranchised
To save their lives for another day
Tis our election, tis our palaver
Tis our election palaver.
(Thursday 25th September,1997)
