Gerei said the president’s performance in the past three and half years is much more better that the years the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) wasted, saying Buhari has been able to build confidence with masses.

“President Buhari has been able to build confidence on the minds of an average Nigerian particularly the ordinary masses who will vote him again.

“Under his leadership, the spate of bombing and other social vices has reduced to the barest minimum and will get better when he gets reelected in February.

“By every available indices, I have no doubt in my mind whatsoever that President Buhari will be reelected. It is also going to have effect on the governors, and I can tell you that even Governor El-Rufai will also be reelected”.

The senator, however, said that though some things may not perfect yet, the president still has a strong commitment to make them better.

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.

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
