Wali Favour, The wurkum birthed poetess is no doubt one of the big poetess around the city of Jalingo, Taraba State Capital.
The young poetess aired out her views concerning the recent happenings in southern Kaduna.
Read the poem below;
"TELL ME
You have ended my marriage with peace
A household that once preached peace has been reduced to an abode of chaos triggered by hatred
You have painted my door post with blood
Sanity and happiness have took to their heels
Pictures of doom are hanging on my wall
The sun has forgotten the path to my house
Dark shadows have swallowed me
Will I ever see light?
Tell me!
You have slaughtered my well being
My inner peace you butchered
You hanged my meat on the rope of doom
Being mortal is an abomination to you
Heaps of dead bodies gives you pleasure
Do I really deserve your tyranny?
Tell me!
Wails of pains sounds like a sweet song to you
Tears of depression quenches your thirst
Sad faces tickles your fancy
Many you orphaned
You took many husbands and wives to a journey of no return
Infants yearn for their mothers
Don't you have conscience?
Tell me!
Will this tyranny ever stop?
Will this story become history?
Will peace ever come back?
Will agony depart soon?
Tell me!"
