Shalanga (for Adesola and Lara Amosu)
Articles/Opinion, Babs Ajayi, Columnists, Latest Headlines Saturday, February 13th, 2016In shalanga they trust
The purveyor of waste
Unwanted but tolerated in ancient homestead
Children scream displeasure at the nasty smell
But that is where the Amosus are different
Sola and Lara love their salanga to death
The treasure pot that holds their hidden grab
From the time looting was allowed and celebrated
Sola worked with Dasuki who worked for Goodluck
And the luck went around and got around
Before ending up in the shalanga
The shit pot that flows with dollars
Shit cash don’t smell
The shalanga will hold it and keep it
Away from the reach of Buhari
Shit smell, shit stain can’t stop the dollar
And the dollar dwarfs the naira and shames every plot
The American note will never change colour
Shalanga, Sola and Lara are now one in conspiracy
The three held a secret buried from the rest of us
The shalanga of shame, the shame of a pair of louts
The open secret of a band of thieves who relied on goodluck
Should we now not be allowed to put them away in their shalanga?
They trusted shalanga to hold their treasure
Now the GP water tank has been relegated forever.
