APPRAISALS OF ONE OF THE POEMS IN THE BOOK

"This is world class material. This seems to be the definition of the Africa we are living in. It is so real. Fantastic. Very powerful with emotive and sensuous language painting a vivid picture of Africa now. At the end we feel like we should run for aid from the West, yet they are master planners of all these happening. In my country Uganda, it is worst"
