Nigerian best friends celebrate as they win same award 2 years apart (photo)

True friends are those who do virtually everything together. They laugh together, mourn together, slay together and win together. Without doubt, the ability to share successes with each other and embrace flaws, weaknesses and failures is the truest definition of friendship.

A particular lady has taken to expressing her joy after her life became an embodiment of what true friendship is really about. The said young woman is a popular On-air personality who has made quite a name for herself in the media industry.

This lady named Olive Emodi was pretty much excited after her hard work and media presence paid off and led to her winning a prestigious award at The Future Awards Africa 2018 which was recently held.

Olive Emodi won the OAP of the year (Television). While this award has served as the highlight of the year for her, what has even made the lady more happy is that her friend had won the same award as best OAP (radio) for the year 2016.

At that time, she had celebrated her friend big time. Never did she guess that her friend would be celebrating her as well very soon. For this reason, the award she won meant a lot to her.

Olive was clearly excited that her friendship with her bestie had stood the test of time, and even more, it was good that they had something to even be happy about during the end of the year. Thus, the OAP took to expressing her gratitude for their relationship.

"She won hers in 2016 as OAP of the Year (Radio), I won mine in 2018 as OAP of the Year (TV). Significant moments in the life of our Sisterhood.

Thankful for Friendships where you pray together, slay together and win together with Jesus at the centre of it all. We are both in the same Industry, hosted the same show on TV (that's how we actually met), yet this Woman is my hype-woman��.

Thankful for you @ayomairoese and the way you love me, celebrate me and inspire me. Thankful for this Friendship that we have, this bond that we share, this Sisterhood that now exists. Thanks for sharing your family/friends with me and accepting mine as yours...THANK YOU IRON.

Cheers to winning more awards collectively and individually. More importantly, here's to living a life of impact and making Jesus proud.

Funfact: She won this Award in 2016 as Ayo Thompson and 11 months later her name became Ayo Mairo-Ese. Dear Lord Jesus is this a sign?."

It is quite a pity that while some have been thrown into rejoicing this year, for some, the opposite is the case for some people. For one, OAP Tosyn Bucknor recently died at the age of 37. Her death has indeed pained many people including her YoruFrench husband and sister.

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
