Kaleidoscope

This poetry book touches the social, political and economic life of Nigeria during the era of the dreadful regime of late General Sanni Abacha to the inauguration of the third republic. However, the relevance of these poems to the times and trials of Africans, runs through many verses: from the ravages of useless tribal and international conflicts, elegiac verses on Africans like Ken Saro-Wiwa, Gani Fawehinmi and M.K.O Abiola to eulogistic verses on Wole Soyinka and Nelson Mandela. The poet employs a light and flowing diction tinge with humour to ridicule issues, which many considered serious. Issues which had, sometimes, caused so much divisiveness among Africans.
