Popular Nigerian singer, Jaywon, has reacted to accusations suggesting he is in the habit of stealing song titles.

A Twitter user identified as Madera took to the platform to accuse the singer of stealing song titles. Giving examples of songs by Simi, DMW and Niniola, Madera stated that Jaywon no longer copies sounds but their titles too.

The singer replied and spared no words in letting Madera know that song titles weren't the same as content. He wrote: "If you are not daft you would’ve known that same name doesn’t mean same content.... but all the same, good luck on what ever gain you want to get over this ‍♂️‍♂️‍♂️‍♂️'

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
