M.I composes poem for the murdered students of UNIPORT


Nigeria’s talented rapper Jude Abaga popularly known as M.I has condemned the killings of the 4 University of Port-Harcourt students who were beaten and burnt alive in front of a crowd.
M.I wrote the poem below:
The hope is the worst part of it.

The way they lay there, beaten and broken, battered and bruised. Knowing their end had come for certain. Knowing that the crowd meant to see this through to the end. And yet, in the midst of all this certainty, in some small corner of their hearts, hoping. That something would happen, some miracle perhaps.

I am speaking of course, of the #Aluu4, students of University of Port Harcourt who were beaten and set ablaze last week.
