CHAIN

A BRIGHTER DANCE

Nigeria’s heartbeat, steady and strong, But half her people have suffered too long. Women who labour from dawn till night, Still waiting, still fighting, to claim their right.

In markets they hustle, in fields they bend, Their courage unbroken, their strength without end. Yet poverty grips, opportunities fade, Dreams are deferred, but hope is not swayed.

Their voices rise from Lagos to Kano, From crowded streets to the heart of Enugu. A cry for justice, a call for change, A future rebuilt, a brighter range.

Education, healthcare, freedom to grow, Economic power the nation must sow. For when women rise, the nation will too, A stronger Nigeria, bold and new.

Let us join hands, let us take a stand, To lift our sisters across this land. Equal rights, equal voice, equal chance Nigeria reborn in a brighter dance.

Kudos to the Lagos State Government and Dr. Joe Odumakin. Some members of our Constituency and their families smiled as a result of the recent palliative that we benefited from. We are grateful, even as we continue to seek for more sustainable solutions to the issue of poverty in Lagos State.
