AARU (FORBIDDEN)
About this poem
A Nollywood personality was accosted by some men in green because of an attire he wore which was believed to be associated with a proscribed successionist group back home. This caused a great stir in the media and condemnation of the actions of the military. Thus, the reason for the title "AARU" meaning "Forbidden" in IBO.
