We told them we wanted infrastructural development, They came and build a pipeline. We asked for human capital development, They said it was in the pipeline. We asked for financial empowerment, Again, they told us it was in the pipeline. We waited for the pipeline to start dripping development, But how long can we wait on this pipeline? Finally, we took our saws and gallons, Cut and pump we did, Liquid gold we got, But no one told us that the pipeline also ferries tears and blood. Our farmland and rivers are now oil-stained.Who shall save us from these pipelines?
