Nigerian youths under the aegis of Build the Future, on Monday, December 10, began a three-day roadshow in Edo to campaign for the re-election of President Muhammadu Buhari and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo in 2019.

A statement signed in Benin by Afolabi Imoukhuede, the senior special assistant to the president on job creation and youth empowerment, indicated that the event would start in Auchi, Edo North, NAN reports.

Legit.ng gathers that Imoukhuede said the event would move to Ekpoma on Tuesday, December 11 and end in Benin on Wednesday, December 12, where Governor Godwin Obaseki and other top government officials would officially inaugurate the campaign.

He said: “As you know we are now fully in the campaign season for the 2019 general elections. This is a group of purposeful and visionary young Nigerians who have admired the strong and principled leadership of Mr. President and Mr. Vice President over the last three years.

“They have come together under the banner of “Build The Future” to support their re-election come February 2019."

According to Imoukhuede, the youths are particularly thrilled by the “doing more with less” philosophy of PMB/PYO’s administration.

He noted that this was evident in the aggressive focus on infrastructure, agriculture, broad based and inclusive direct social investment in the youths and vulnerable poor in the country.

The presidential aide said that the campaign would officially break in the various media outlets this week.

He said that it would continue with greater focus on an effective one-to-one grassroots campaign, road show activation, strong social-digital presence and continuous radio enlightenment.

According to him, the campaign would highlight the many achievements of the PMB/PYO administration through active youth mobilisation.

He said: “It is designed as a Pan-Nigeria reach with strong focus on eligible Youth Voters and the common man who are the silent majority."

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
