The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), on Monday, December 17, arraigned a serving member of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), whose name was given as Ogbonna Victor Chibuzor, before Justice Mohammed Liman of the Federal High Court, Enugu.

The NYSC member was arraigned for alleged fraud.

Daily Sun reports that the arraignment was confirmed in a statement by the public affairs officer of the commission, Chris Oluka.

The EFCC said Ogbonna was arraigned on a five-count charge of intent to defraud as well as possession of fraudulent documents containing false pretences contrary to section 6 of the advance fee fraud and other fraud related offences act 2006 and punishable under section 1 (3) of the same act.

The statement said Ogbanna’s arrest followed a series of raids carried out by the zonal office for a while in which several suspected fraudsters allegedly into cyber and internet scams were arrested.

According to the EFCC, those arrested were noted to be living flamboyantly despite having no identifiable means of livelihood.

“Analysis carried out by the commission on the computer of the suspected fraudster revealed certain incriminating documents intended to be used in swindling gullible Nigerians and foreigners alike.

“Further investigations disclosed that Ogbanna uses his e-mail address activitygeneral@hotmail.com to send unsolicited emails to his victims using fake or stolen identity to legitimise his nefarious activities.

“One of the documents was addressed to oneAlan Christopher of BG Group Plc,Thames Valley Park,Reading,RG6,Berkshire,United Kingdomwith a rider ‘Your attention is needed’ and a second paragraph talking about a (£12,500.000.00) Great Britain Pounds Sterling unclaimed contract fund.

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
