The Dialogue

In Abuja, a nameless boy survives in the shell of a broken bus - abandoned by his mother, forgotten by his continent. His plight collides with a desperate man's curse, exposing a world where the vulnerable are left to rot. He finds a name; he finds a home - but what does the future hold for a society that abandons its children, yet proclaims that children are the future?"The Dialogue: The Vulnerable and The Desperate is a song of anguish, desperation and desolation, sung by an abandoned street urchin, crying every day and night, so dreary, for attention, with a sad and wistful eye. His cries of abandonment fall on the uncaring ears of a wicked world. Written in a simple but powerful dialogue with a fresh technique in playwriting, the playwright dazes the reader with images that shock and arrest attention. The play is recommended for tertiary institution students as a powerful tool for adjustment and change in attitude towards the abandoned children in Africa." -Chris Nwamuo
