_{Pardon my inadequacy in poetry. I was just trying to express myself in an arena where I am not a professional}

Sharia! oh Sharia!
Where are thou?
When you reincanated
At the beginning of this republic
Thou have come to stay, I thought
For your exhumer sounded very serious
From Kano to Katsina!
Sokoto to Zamfara
From Maiduguri to Yola
Thou art the beautiful bride
What about Bauchi and Gombe?
With pump and pageantry
Your arrival was announced
Everybody was so fond of you
"For you possess the magic wand
To all our problems"
Or so we were made to believe
But the occupier of the Rock thought otherwise
"She shall soon be divorced"
He predicted
For you were a political bride, he claimed!
How prophetic he was!
Beautiful Sharia
Thou art a runaway bride
Despite all the noise made
And resources commited to your engagement
Your existence was but short
For you are no longer relevant
You have been
Used and dumped.
Do I miss you, my dear?
May be. May be not!
May your soul rest in perfect peace
Until your presence is needed again.

sounds creepy uuuu

Thats u spora. love the way u take up issue in a lighter mood. Yes sharia issue was political. It is sick now. In a year or so it will die, then bury before the end of this adminstration. It may bounce back if we have another Christian as president

@Mantee: Sharia has always been in Nigeria. It was part of the first constitution. Have you heard about native court? That is Sharia, among the Mus''lims. And its every where there is a community of Mus''lims. Its death can not come as long as there are humans alive. If you say that some persons are using it as a political tool, then thats something! Deceit does not have a strong footing to stand on! But that will be separate from Sharia. Every Mus''lim should use it as a guide and self preservation. But it is also better when it is the guide of the collective members of the community, regardless of its volume!
