2015 Election: the Pinnacle of History, Harbinger of Doom

It is the time to rise. It is the time to fall. It is the time to be wise, the time to be foolish, the time to get the pinnacle of history and the time to sit at the pit of the story. Stories; story of life, story of death, story that makes a wife stumbles with the husband due to the spiel that hammer the belly, leaving mouth ajar like a rusty door. This is also the story that will iron the ears that listen to the voice of the air. This time is not strange. This time is queer. It is bizarre to the people who think the other way round while it is run-of-the-mill to those expecting it. The time for our country, the day(s) for our nation-the day we architect our shame or pride, the day of reckoning. The day that determines the fate of Caesar, who rules with power, the day to know the Judas that lures the nation to his pouch, the day to know the right and wrong messiah.

IBADAN: by Lateef Kehinde Rahmon (Guest Writer)

A city of memory A legendary land Ibadan, An ancient cafe of golden age Spring like a firmament's glow In the western sky Ibadan, Rising sun of gold and splash Among the seven hills.
