Many blast TV presenters for opining that most men are depressed because women are becoming leaders (video)

In a 21st century Nigeria, new questions are arising, emerging issues are being discussed due to the prevalence of certain unanticipated societal challenges. One of such unexpected problems being confronted is depression. In order to nip this arising crisis in the bud, many people are coming out to discuss the reasons behind the mental condition.

In accordance to this, popular media personality Lolo Cynthia gathered together a group of ladies for the sole purpose of discussing and deliberating on why depression as a crisis is on the rise.

These ladies deemed as millennial females had a lot to say about the causes of depression. One of them attributed it to the fact that, these days, young people have a lot of options to pick from. They are not in want of what to do, hence, they are at the risk of short attention span which leads them downhill to depression.

Another talked of the fact that urbanisation and the absence of communal existence in today's world are the prime reasons causing depression. According to the lady who raised this point, many are drowned in the quest to succeed so that they barely have time for others and themselves.

Now, two other points raised by these women of great esteem got the attention of Nigerians. One of the arguments raised was that a lot of men get depressed because women are taking up leadership roles by the minute!

Yet again, another person said that some people lie about being depressed just to get attention and join a supposed community. See the tweet and video below:

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
