First they came for Navin Ramgoolam I didn't speak out as i wasn't a PM Then they came for Mohammed, Bachoo, Cader, Jeetah ... I didn't speak out as i wasn't a minister Then they came for Ish Sookun I didn't speak out as i wasn't an IT expert Then they came for the Ruhomally's I didn't speak out as i wasn't a liberal Then they came for Rawat I didn't speak out as i wasn't a businessman Then they came for Adeela, Claudio, Laina, Brian ... I didn't speak out as my father was not a businessman Then they came for Beenick, Vayid, Mootien, Gujudar .. I didn't speak out as i wasn't a banker Then they came for the DPP I didn't speak out as i wasn't a DPP Then they came for this little boy and his mother ... I didn't speak out as i wasn't poor Then they came for me without a warrant in my dwelling And there was no one left to speak for me .... Little did Martin Niemöller know that in 2020 Mauritius would use his words.
