CALL YOUR SONS, OGONI*
Droplets of sweat,
clouds of wisdom,
what of amnesty?
No says, kangaroo court!
For us it’s a long night of persecution.
Let the drums of your heroes sound,
your enemies smitten by your chants.
By determination,
our death should be your drive now!
Ogoni, rise! Avenge your land.
Ogoni, land of the minority,
yet provide for the majority;
Ogoni, do not crack your struggle with corruption,
agitate, demand, rise and fight*
avenge the death of your sons, Ogoni!
Dedicated to Ken Saro-Wiwa and other Ogoni Chiefs killed for championing justice for Ogoni people*
