Farewell, our Medical Doctors… -By Abdullahi O. Haruna

Take the next flight to Saudi Arabia,
A full-fledged Islamic country,
With strict sharia law,
It doesn’t matter if you are a Christian,
Just go there,
Make your money, return home,
We are here to fix the system.

Ironic tonic here,
You fear Buhari’s Islamization here,
But line up in queue,
To be forced into Saudi’s Islamic law,
Where your name will be temporarily changed
From Chikwendi to Maskoor,
Your suit will turn to jalabia
And your hair covered in turban shawl,
Yes, for you must do like the Saudis,
Just like the Romans while in Rome.

Your wives will be forced to dress in full apparel,
Unlike in Nigeria, where they can be dressed in topless attire,
Your wives won’t drive cars,
They will only be driven.

Life in this Sharialized country is very comfortable,
You will be paid in Riyal,
Everything available,
Paradise on earth,
Unlike Buhari’s Nigeria.

You are going to make big money,
Treating not the Saudis but pilgrims,
Who converge there annually,
You fear Islamization yet travel far to treat same Muslims,
Isn’t God wonderful?
Indeed he is the God of humans- both Muslims and Christians!

When you make the money,
Remember to return home
And train the student doctors behind,
After all, others trained you for the Saudis,
The system paid for your medical school.

Again, isn’t time, Govt stop funding medical schools,
After all, they leave for Saudis after receiving medical lessons
In Buhari’s Islamized Nigeria.

Farewell, our medical doctors,
Enroute Saudi Arabia, for Arabia dough,
Say, Salam to the Saudis, another Islamic country!

Salamlly musing
