Pause for a few moments to listen to this – Nigerian/Canadian poet Titilope Sonuga (featured in La Danza Poetica 007).

A spoken word song for lost children, for lost adults counting, losing count, for a world connected and disconnected, watching, turning away, hoping, losing hope. A poetic call to arms, a communication direct from a fearless heart.

“For the children of the Yobe Massacre, for the people of the Nyanya bombings, for the 200+ girls still waiting and for all the nameless, faceless victims of a nation in crisis.”

Written by Titilope, produced by Femi Leye – beautiful, effortlessly rolling straight from the melody of truth to our ears.
