Soyombo Ayomikun: What is Surulere?

4 Min Read
Children in Biu Nigeria

What Is Surulere?…Inspired By @IamDrSID

 

1.Surulere is not a place

But a painful state

A state not marked on the world’s map

A state of tears and hope

 

2.Surulere is the pains endured

As the heart dreams of victory

Neglecting the shortcuts to fame

Because of the knowlege that riches laboured for lasts forever

 

3.Surulere is the little girl

With tattered uniforms but glorious dreams

Dreams to at the end wear the crown

Despite the momentary darkness

 

4.Surulere is the watery soup

To be swallowed with large bowls of ‘eba’

A soup rendered ugly without meat

To be taken in expectation of a better day

 

5.Surulere is the young man

With just a pair of boots and jersey

Day and night training in bleak places

That the medal of gold may be kissed

 

6.Surulere is the commercial bus driver

Who has chosen to not exchange his car key for guns

Despite seeing friends already on the fast lane

Beckoning on him to come join the gang

 

7.Surulere is the tears shed

By the Policeman who has decided to live for truth

Tears shed behind his walls with his pockets empty

Pockets that could have been filled with countless bribes

 

8.Surulere is the driven soccer team coach

Who laboured to birth a new generation of soccer stars

Who along the line met great victories & some defeats

And despite being snuffed out at the end ‘cos of the losses

Still summoned the courage to say ‘life goes on’

 

 

9.Surulere is the teacher

Who has chosen to teach despite hunger pangs

A teacher whose salary weighs lighter than the winds

But delights in birthing kings and queens

 

10.Surulere is the Banker

Who refused to collapse at ‘Ojuelegba’

After long terrible hours of labouring at work

Rest assured glory will come someday

 

11.Surulere is the leader

Who won’t smile with his people by day

Proclaiming a deep love

All to rob them when night comes

 

12.Surulere is that Pastor

That won’t feed fat on deception,flying about in jets

But rather bear the pains of a flock

Seeking light,smiles and healing

 

13.Surulere is the message of the sun

‘Cos it will shine again when tomorrow comes

The sun can never be hidden forever

Likewise dreams not allowed to perish

 

14.Surulere is believing in the dream of the ‘New Nigeria’

Despite being surrounded by wicked leaders

Leaders roaring about as wounded lions

Seeking funds to devour

 

15.Surulere is not a place

But a painful state

A state not marked on the world’s map

A state of tears and hope

 

N.B. – Surulere:a yoruba word meaning ‘patience pays’…eba:a staple yoruba food

Ojuelegba:a location in Lagos,Nigeria.
