In times like this, we need voices that will scream in protest shrill cries that will awaken their conscience. Within our walls ravaged, plundered by elephants, standing aloof without action will produce untold hardship Let's sing with one voice against machination let's march in anger against gradual elimination. (c) Emeka Chike Nwogu~2005

Emika, you are so right. CSW, are hounding certain people.
Although I'm off soon. I will with many many others keep fighting till it is won. Thanks to Bono of U2, he has come down hard on Mr Blair and Brown..

A poem that is forth-right would do good. And I will pass it on to the directors of CSW..SATURDAY MORNINGS, ON PREMIER,Christain radio, CSW have a 15 mimute voice now. Can get it on the internet.

I get at least 5 mails aday from them, some I am allowed to pass on.

Others I can't for reasons you understand.
Stay strong. My good man..

Let's sing with one voice - marvelous thoughts, Emeka - and let's all sing Happy Birthday to you, too! I hope it's a grand one.
