THEY ARE CHILDREN (A REVIEW BY BANKOLE KOLAWOLE)



In 2 minutes 39 seconds, SunSamPaul De Philosopher with mesmerizing play on words brings a message against child marriage. For the girl-child, It's a dwelling of hope.

"They are the leaders of tomorrow, yet we place them with different 'arrows'. Let's give them a pen, not a penis, ask for their books, not their boobs", these catch-phrases will linger longer in the minds of listeners and/or viewers.



Quite impressive, judging by the length of this. Afterall, brevity is the soul of poetry!
Succinctly, the biggest room in the world remains that of improvement, though the graphic representation of those characters mentioned can be better shown, and the 'elder sisters...' line needs a second touch, for safer landing.


Keep burning Paul, no solvent will derail you!
