Economic abuse and sexual abuse amidst other abuses are kingpins in the Nigerian community these days.. Sometimes I ask myself if going back to military rule would wash the land off the stains these abuses have painted it with.

I become very sad when I see partner's suffering in marriages, crying and regretting marrying. This affect the children the most and also in a case where children are being violated as if they are not humans.

The fact that it have do many negative effects such as psychological stress and sometimes eventual death, this is a very wicked enemy of societal growth and unity. It is not only sardonic , it is a medium that portrays antediluvian proclivities

Maraming inosente ang nadamay Madaming tao ang hindi mapalagay Madaming mamamayan ang namatay Nagumpisa ng mangyari Ang lubos na kinatatakutan ng marami Nandito na sya sa bansa Na kahit anong oras pwedeng maminsala

Sanay una palang, Sanay sa umpisa palang Ginawa na ng gobyerno Na wag papasukin ang mga chino Dahil ba sa turismo? O koneksyon sa pag papayaman nating pilipino?

Gobyerno! Sana! Sana bago ninyo isipin ang iba Ay maisip ninyo muna na Sa gantong sitwasyon Tayong mga pilipino ang mas mahalaga

Araw araw sa telibisyon binabalita Nadadagdagan na naman ang bilang Dapat ba tayong maalarma Kung pati mga bata ay naaapektuhan na Kaya ang buhay ay biglang gumulo Dahil kumakalat na ito sa buong mundo

Dalawa lang ang ating kailangan "Ang magtiwala at ang magtulungan" Huwag na tayong mandaya Tulungan natin ang sariling bansa Ipagdasal lahat ng napinsala At sa may kapa tayo ay maniwala

Magtiwala Magtulungan Matatapos din ang kahirapan At makakamit din natin ang kaligayahan Sa huli ay kapayapaan ng bansa.
