Corruption in Nigeria


Where is the help?

Money is the focus,

The goverment may cause money to disappear like hocus pocus

While the  children are left helpless, hopeless

No arm, leg nor brain to grow,

Corruption taking place means movement is slow

Since when is the goal to steal money,

filling their fat bellies like honey

while

The education of the future crumbles,

stomachs are left empty, rumbling

Policiticians fumblng for words to cover up.
