I struggle that the world hear my voice.
And Malala Yousafzai said “We realize the importance of our voice when we are silenced”.
When the soul thirst for justice, it fears no harm.
When the heart longs for right, it fears no threat.
A country with a promising tomorrow…
I will never give up on her.
A country where I was birthed… on the alter of hope, does it worth deserting?
We have come a long way to give up on her.
We have not come this far to accept defeat.
We sacrificed our blood to make amends, can we back off now?
We are the giant of Africa, we don’t take low.
Here and now, I will cast my vote.
I pledge to be a patriotic citizen… the time is now!
Against all odds, I will cast my vote.
Because justice need to be done and I believe in my country’s tomorrow.
I will die but once, and I will fight for the truth.
And Dr. Martin Luther King Jr said “Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter”.
Even if it takes only me to stand, I will choose right.
Just like the beginning of a new dawn, there is hope.
A country where we must remain resilient and courageous in the face of adversity.
We will finish what we started.
This is our thing, a history we are about to make.
When we pass the scroll from generation to generation…
When we sat down under the aura of tomorrow’s evening, grey hairs on our hair, we will tell the story to our grandchildren.
The story of yesteryears…
But first, we have to build the bricks.
Where are the youth of this great nation?
Let us come out en masse and seek for right.
