Today was 1983 boom and boom!
Bomb and guns cried for human blood to stream The smiling of war overwhelmed the thousands of peace in Akureland O Akure my town! Why do you allow politics to wear you war? The happiness of war Alas! Is the untimely death of prominent sons and daughters of Akureland And beautiful house razed to flame April-election! Dug beneath the pine tree for the old to sleep eternal Though poet is still to be born But learnt from what the history tells lodged in my memory no way to delete
