Everyone carries a vision of their country with expectations that vary as the spread of the ocean. For poet, writer and spoken words performer, Deborah Alozie, the visions of her country are hazy with uncertain turns. Yet, she lets it out with all boldness. For in this boldness is hope. Hope that these words do not become the permanent stay of her country. She seeks humanity. Not politics. Results, not promises.

Like her and every patriot out there, we say, ‘May Nigeria win’.

Beautiful lines from a young wine

07/06/2026

“Sometimes, freedom is not in the sense of the word. But, in the art of its meaning in our daily trudge with life.

For Nigeria, it’s almost a daydream. But, not impossible. We live to fight to reclaim our freedom from the claws of oppression.

Freedom is justice. It is children safe in schools. Freedom is how we build dreams. It is how we survive storms.

It is empowerment — women and men with capable minds. It is the right of refusal. The power to accept. Without freedom, society is a graveyard of s**t and bones.

For Debbie Writes, Deborah Alozie , poetry is freedom as she captures the mood of our nation in the eyes of the storm. Like we say, ‘Let Nigeria Win.’”
