Why Ndigbo must for Buhari in 2019 election -Pan-Igbo group

- The Ndigbo Unity Forum, a pan-Igbo socio-cultural group, has solicited support for President Muhammadu Buhari ahead of 2019 general elections

- The group president, Augustine Chukwudum, urged Ndigbo all over Nigeria to come out en mass to vote for President Buhari's second term

- Chukwudum stated that 2023 will be Igbo turn to produce the next president of the country

The Ndigbo Unity Forum (NUF), a pan-Igbo socio-cultural group, has urged Ndigbo to vote wisely by voting for the re-election of President Muhammadu Buhari.

The president of NUF, Augustine Chukwudum, made the call while speaking with.the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday, January 1, in Enugu.

Chukwudum also enjoined Ndigbo, all over the country, to come out en mass to vote for Buhari second term, “so that 2023 will be Ndigbos’ turn to produce the next President of Nigeria.’’

He also called on Ndigbo to “say no to political slavery which PDP had subjected Ndigbo into since 1999. PDP party and its members are now claiming to be angel;we will not accept their Greek gift, Buhari is our candidate.

“NUF wishes to call on Igbos to ignore former President Olusegun Obasanjo and some jobless pploticians who want to sell Ndigbo at any kobo offered to them by political enemies of the zone.’’

Chukwudum said: “We, Ndigbo, must not allow this cheap sell out to happen, because President Buhari has done well for Igbos.

“That explains why great Igbo leaders like former Governor Ogbonnaya Onu; former Governor Jim Nwobodo; former Governor Orji Kalu and former Governor Sullivan Chime are ardent members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and supporters of the president.

“Others are: Senator Chris Ngige; Sen. Ken Nnamani; Chief Osita Okechukwu.” He urged Ndigbo to reflect and check the past and know the kind of people they had been associating with before now because “all that glitters is not gold.

''PDP has been going about to promise Igbos heaven and earth. Ndigbo should ask PDP and its members on what happened from 1999 to 2015 when the party was in power.’’

Meanwhile, Legit.ng had reported that a renowned cleric, Prophet Christopher Owolabi, on Tuesday, January 1, predicted that the tenure of the present administration under President Muhammadu Buhari would extend beyond 2019.

Owolabi, general overseer Christ Apostolic Church Ori-Oke, Irapada, Omu-Aran, made the prediction during the Church’s crossover night service tagged: “Seeking for Nigeria’s Democratic Sustenance Beyond 2019” in Omu-Aran, Kwara.

The cleric told the gathering that the prediction was not borne out of any personal or political interest whatsoever, but God’s divine guidance and direction for the country.

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
