Nigerians finally pick Teni as their internet discovery of the year 2018

The year 2018 is gradually coming to an end and we cannot help but celebrate some people that made the past few months a memorable one. Some of these people impacted greatly in their various fields and they earned a worthy mention.

Then we created a poll in the month of December to determine who, in the opinion of our readers, deserves to be called the discovery of the year 2018.

Before we announce the final result, please read a brief background on some of the people nominated:

1. Peruzzi

Tobechukwu Victor Okoh, better known as Peruzzi, sure made a mark in the music industry in the year 2018. Things started to take a positive turn for him after he was signed on to Davido Music Worldwide (DMW). He has proven himself to be a very talented musician and song writer. Unknown to many, Peruzzi is responsible for writing several hit tracks of some artistes. He is reportedly Davido’s ghost writer as some people have credited him for writing Fia and Fall for the star. Peruzzi was also featured on 2Baba’s massive hit song, Amaka.

2. Teni

The plus-sized singer is definitely a breath of fresh air for Nigerian music lovers. Her playful disposition has earned her a lot of fans. Teni has always made music but she became more popular after videos of her singing on Instagram went viral. Her song Fargin also helped to stamp her presence in the music scene. Teni is not only a singer but also a songwriter. Her songs, Askamaya, Fake Jersey, Pareke, to name a few, are a delight to many fans. According to reports, she helped Davido write his hit single Like Dat.

3. Cee-C

The 26-year-old lawyer became known after she participated in reality TV show BBNaija ‘Double Wahala’. Cee-C sure took the theme very seriously as she was no doubt a force to reckon with on the show. Due to her displays while in the house, it seemed like she gained a lot of enemies, but that might be far from the truth. She emerged as the second position and since the show ended, the curvy lady has bagged several endorsement deals and awards. Cee-C is one of the former contestants that is making sure she remains relevant even long after the show has been forgotten.

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
