Coordinators Highlight
You are not the only one who has suffered financial challenges. There is no shame about it because you can get out of it. The poor we will always have, the good book said. When you face this challenge, talk to trust worthy friends. It will be well. It is just a matter of time. Stay alive.
Campaign Poem
Door bell ringing, creditors calling
I have not the money
Not even the one for my aching back
What am I to say
promises upon promises
What else than an end of it
Deep breaths dizzy feeling
Heart beating faster like a drum
Head throbbing
Should I walk out of the door into the streets
And let go of myself for a knock down
Or climb to let go on this tree on my compound
But that will be painful a fall
Or I let go and hang on a rope
But that will be suffocating till I breathe my last
Or that poison I once used on the rats
But the pain in my moist eyes I see upwell
Can I end it all?
