Bate Besong

Obasinjom Warrior

By PETER WUTEH Vakunta

Whether you be bookman
Or you be halfbook man.
Whe you be teacher
Or you be school pikin.
Whether you be man
Or you be woman
Whether you be small man
Or you be big man.
I member say you savy that ‘shooting star’
Whe them de call’am say Bate Besong.
That man na A1 for Cameroon.
