A Dawn Of Doom
The sun fell heavily on the earth, its harsh rays with an intent to blur my sight but I won't back out. For the first time, I developed a keen interest for politics. The previous government was an inlet thief. His coming back is already causing a grouse but his counterpart is just another disappointment.
Despite his awful performance during his administration, SPN party still gathered people in masse as people swarm round the campaign arena. What my eyes saw left me in awe.
His voice became clearer, far from the whisper it was miles away.
"We will create employment; the young shall marry; good infrastructure and the likes are our targets."
"Employment? The young shall marry?" That was a pure fib. A man whose marriage was for the sake of copulation, talks about marriage in such manner? It's quite interesting how people tend to try at covering up flames.
Just then I saw my LGA Chairman step up the stage.
"The people of jokun LGA are strongly with you, we are happy with your good course for our father land..."
It struck my heart just hearing him speak those trash. Then I said to myself, "maybe his projects are in the spirit."
Who is he to show such an ubiquity?
The man who served for good four years with no tangible project to show? It was just few months ago he announced his transition to the opposition party, now he talks like he never belonged there. Politicians are indeed chameleons.
The worst are the gullible youths and selfish people that only care for their belly who were cheering him with no iota of askance in their tone. I concluded that my people are not tired of suffering. A new dawn of doom awaits.
