The next PAGE

This ENDSARS protest has added more gas to the cylinders of our young Guys.
This period has low-key shown that a great deal of unity lies amongst the upcoming and the already made guys.
That both the rich and poor can finally stand on the same soil and cry based on the same course.

This ENDSARS protest has passed a message to the leaders of now that the toddlers and said to be lazy youths that they saw yesterday are now up and have gathered strength to fight them today.
It has given them the awareness that tomorrow’s struggle would be tougher than they’d ever imagine.

This ENDSARS protest has shown that long before now we’ve all wanted to walk and become one.
It has proven that we all can be equal before the law if we know our rights and don’t shake in front of them all .
This period has shown that legalized evil has no stand in a land that’s full of illegalized good.

Although our tears are taking time to dry up,
as a result of the river it had already formed.
Although our leaders are taking time to talk,
probably as a result of the past when they always had nothing to say.
But nevertheless, at this point even the deaf can hear us,
the mute can cry on, even through a placard.
For the ache in the hearts of the youth is more than the one silence can hold on.
The words of silence at this point has no alphabets and so has no words.

Let our voices be heard and let’s let unity work the magic for us.
