State of our people in Jos, Platuae state of Nigeria
SEXTON AND MUEZZIN





Poor sexton and muezzin

His big ringing bell’s broken

Muezzin’s minaret’s blown down

Pow! In Jos on its earth surface rrrrawn!

All are result of the misnomer

You create and give to each other

Turning your church and mosque

Into billet; preventing Billy and Bolsk

From having minuet and hug,

Decant calmness into your mug

And have a pretty froth of peace

That’ll make your tolerance increase;

Let’s invite people friendly in-

To our homes without a fiendish grin.
