Once You Hit A certain Age
Yousif Ibrahim Abubaker 1986 (Omdurman)
We had to repent to The Almighty God to reform ourselves handled with each other in believability, deference, and conscience to investigate admissibly from our prohibitive bargains before we invoked God to elevate the calamity.
Regardless of the posture, people advocated fancy assented across a catastrophe that came to Sudan.
How did huge buildings be burned and stolen? While they have become a spot for the oppressors: The owner of a house cost and a lodger who didn't tend the covenants weren't obtained, how were they sabotaged?
How did banks and the markets be burned? Priority presided over all their transactions, peerless ratio in all nations of the world.
But we are Sudanese who accepted what occurred to our land was the commodity of our tacky deeds.
How did Khartoum be burned? On the heads of people who had peso without dishonor, or even ravishing into account a needy portrayal presenting our accident, with those scandalous forms top up scenes.
We had ages, and we were in an uninterrupted slump of the ethics and morality in all its simplification.
Even most of the expatriates took an advantage of their financial transfers to destroy Sudan's currency and contribute to raising its disgrace and demolition.
How could our emporiums be burned, plunders in daybreak eat people's sliver was diffusing approach in most of its smuggling wide-spreading language dealt with the matter as if it was a common thing.
How did cities? Khartoum north/ south and Omdurman be burned partially? Transgress the rights of passers - On the road, every tradesman put their trade on aside thoroughfare and pours them to squander of their trade on rowing.
