In ORCHESTRAS OF REVOLUTION, you will hear dissenting voices—pain, anger, hopes, and disappointments—echoing through the lines of expressive poems. You will enjoy them.

Perhaps, the poems will prompt you to speak out too. Perhaps, also, you may be prompted to lend your voice to the ORCHESTRA seeking to set Nigeria back on the right path during the much anticipated 2023 elections.
