The Best Legacy... Poem by Abaku Istifanus Abaku

The best legacy
We were presented with a good toil
Award, a donation and contribution that
Come through financial aid and build up strong economic acid.

This nutrition we are feed-in
Even the big-guns consume it
They are the medals won by champions
This is a throne enthroned by kings
This is a crown wore by an emperor
To axe out illiteracy

Education is the name!

It is the root that builds up,
A strong nation,
The trumpet that sings good anthem
Of a country
The privilege that does not recognize
A class

Education! Indeed you are the great legacy!
Because you are the gift of personal property!
An inherited asset from a predecessor
You are the very heritage that cannot
Be forgotten.
Whip by the pass of time.

Education to show how burning you
Are, your coat is refined with
Fine paste of knowledge
To erode… POWER!

...For knowledge is power
And power is life.

Education you are the magnet that attract people
To modernism
The great soap that wash away ignorance!
A broom that sweep our illiteracy! !
You are not attest with money, but hard work and
Grit.

You are the only weapon and arsenal
That brings glory to a society,
The polish that bring beauty to our state on an
Account that, with it, crime will not be

Define, religion will not be seen as the gods
Of the land, tribalism will not be seen as the
Language of the community
But upon these:

We'll harvest bumper
Cultivation of knowledge and sustainable
Development.
Education! You are the only technology
That drives away corruption, so what
Is our government waiting for to invest in this asset?
And our parent closing their eyes
And ears to this bang up "Possession"?
