Lady reveals how she was able to save N40,700 in her piggy bank after less than a month

Adults often times have bills to pay that they sometimes forget to set some money aside for rainy days. However some few smart individuals who know the importance of saving often take to social media to share their progress.

No doubt, saving money takes a lot of guts and only disciplined individuals can carry out the task successfully. In recent times, social media has been abuzz with stories of people who managed to keep large amounts of money after saving for a few months.

Recently, Legit.ng gathered the report of a Nigerian lady identified on Twitter as Amina Abdullahi (@Mvnaaa__) who managed to save some amount of money in her piggy bank.

The pretty lady revealed that she had managed to keep N40,700 in her kolo despite saving for less than a month.

This is quite impressive. Who knows what she would have been able to keep if she had saved for a longer time.

Meanwhile, not everybody is always lucky to have a good saving experience. Legit.ng earlier reported that a couple who had been keeping their money in a piggy bank since January, found it nearly empty when they decided to open it.

Since the month of January, Iheaka Michael and his wife had been saving up money for an important cause in a piggy bank. Recently, they broke the little chest with the hope that their nest egg would have yielded quite a lot.

Upon looking into the box though, they found nothing except for some trifle naira notes that did not amount to anything! What this means is that their labour of saving for the rainy day had been wasted in a mysterious, uncanny way.

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
