A young woman identified as Charity Amadi has alleged that her blood sister, Chioma, burnt all her credentials out of jealous for her success.

Legit.ng regional reporter, Subair Mohammed, reports that Charity, a 2013 part-time graduate of Economics/Maths from the Adeniran Ogunsanya College of Education (AOCOED) in Oto-Ijanikin area of Lagos, narrated that she is from a family where nothing comes easily.

She said she had to work with her Senior Secondary School Certificate (SSCE) as a private school in Iba, a suburb of Lagos state, where she earned N12,000 per month and that she enrolled for an evening training programme in tailoring and a weekend course at AOCOED.

Narrating her trials to Legit.ng, Charity said her problem began when her fiancé and his family came for her introduction while her sister, Chioma, who is six years older than her, had no man to call her own.

She said: “We lost our mother early in life, so we were left to the care of our father. After my secondary education, I was employed as a teacher in a private school in LASU-Iba road and I also got enrolled for an apprenticeship in tailoring every evening.

"While this was on with the little I saved from my salary, I sought admission into Adeniran Ogunsanya College of Education (ACOED) to study Economics/Maths on part-time.

"This was how I struggled and sponsored myself through self-effort until I graduated from the college and my fiancé came to our father for my hand in marriage.

"This angered my sister. She became jealous of my success and harboured animosity against me without me knowing until she launched her evil machination against me.

"One day, I got home to make photocopies of my credential for the job offer I got only to discover that they were all missing where I kept them.

"I searched everywhere for it. I asked my father and other siblings, they told me they didn’t know anything about the missing documents.

"Meanwhile, my sister was silent all the while until one of our neighbours came to me saying she saw my sister when she burnt some clothes with some papers wrapped in it.

"What paper could that be? I asked myself. I hurried to my father to tell him about what I heard and when she came back, my father confronted her and she denied having anything to do with it initially.

"Later she confessed to burning my Senior Secondary School Certificate, my Baptism certificate, Birth certificate and AOCOED certificate out of jealousy of me. She confessed that she was envious of my successes.

"I learnt tailoring, I was employed and now wanted to get married while she has none. And that was what made her to burn my credentials. I cried out my eyes. My father appeased me but said I shouldn’t make a case out of it after all we are sisters.

"Now my father is dead. My sister is married now while I am out of job and needed my certificates to secure another job.

"I was left with only the photocopies of all the affected documents and I know employers of labour would demand to see the original copy of all the certificates. I am at a crossroad not knowing where to turn to.”

Meanwhile, Legit.ng had previously reported that talented Nigerian entertainer, Adekunle Gold, lost his sister, Busayo, whom he also referred to as his best friend, to the cold hands of death sometime in the year 2011 to a heart related disease.

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
