Gamji Poetry: An ode to unity 



By Musa Aminah 

I wish to wake up one day

And see my motherland become a symphony of thoughts

Where our minds dance with diverse melodies, harmonizing as one


Where we cast aside the boundaries of regions and tribes,

and speak as children of the same soil

Where Amaka, Ajibola, and Danladi wield swords of justice


Where Rukayat and Ruth stand as guardians of Osunfunke's honor

Where we unite in the battle for true democracy,

regardless of the language on our tongues


Where "Unity and justice, peace and progress"

become more than just words

A nation where love blossoms like a garden in full bloom


A nation where every voice holds the power to govern

A nation where equality is woven into the fabric of our existence

A nation where one man's words echo the hopes of all


Where the divide between the poor and the rich dissolves like morning mist

A nation where the law stands tall, above every soul

I wish to wake up one day and witness a nation where peace reigns supreme.

Danfodiyo Varsity (UDUS) By Biliaminu Manne It is no longer news that many African countries are currently in the trenches of breaking grounds, recording a series of coups for the chronicles of next-generation and historical students to lean on.  Though it is not a novel thing, from 2019 to 2023, Africa has the records of 10 coups with the recent coup at Gabon, if successful. However, not to delve into the happenings of the African continent, the recent African plights reached the recently elected Students' Union of Usmanu Danfodiyo University Sokoto, which will raise the record to eleven (11) coups in Africa, though this 11th is not by military, it is by the management of the varsity. Why Suspension It is an irrefutable fact that the Danfodites had been waiting anxiously for a democratic era after the long reign of the Caretaker Committee.

Gamji Poetry: Eternal Longing  By Musa Aminah Can I love you like a shooting star streaking across the night sky? Can I confess the depths of my heart's desires? For your beauty enchants me, like a tale spun by folklore's fireside. I'm addicted to you, like a potion that consumes my very being. A day without glimpsing your face feels like an eternity lost in time. Always yearning to be by your side, like a sailor longing for the shore. Day and night, thoughts of you dance through my mind, a never-ending waltz. Even in slumber, our dreams intertwine, painting a tapestry of our love. I wonder if you share the same sentiments, if our hearts beat in harmony. Every day, I pray for your love to mirror mine, a symphony of emotions. No matter the obstacles, I'm willing to traverse rivers and scale walls for you. Love, they say, is a curse, and now I understand its grip on my soul. Love, like a persistent cough, refuses to be contained or silenced. Your charms bewitch me, like a...
