Judith Amaechi, wife of the minister of transport, Rotimi Amaechi, says the President Muhammadu Buhari-led All Progressives Congress (APC) has done more for the south-south than any other government.

Legit.ng gathers that she said: “There are so many things in the south-south that speak for themselves, which Buhari brought to the area. I want to assure you that this region will deliver for President Buhari, come February 16.”

The minister’s wife further cited the east-west road, schools’ feeding system and trains in the state.

In her remarks, Aisha Buhari, wife of the president, who was represented by the wife of the vice president, Dolapo Osibajo, urged youths to shun all temptations to be used to perpetrate electoral violence.

Mrs Buhari implored them to ensure that their votes were counted at the polling units.

The president’s wife pointed out that her husband was interested in women and youth, adding: “That was why the government engaged more in the home grown school feeding programmes, and N-Power programmes, among others.”

She continued: “The present administration is also helping in small loans for business owners, as they are putting together policies to ensure that there is the ease of doing business in the country.”

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that President Muhammadu Buhari said Rotimi Amaechi created a problem for him when the latter promised a railway line to link the south-east with the northern part of Nigeria.

Buhari disclosed this during the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign rally which held inside the main bowl of the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium in Enugu.

Buhari said it would be difficult for him to convince the Federal Executive Council (FEC) members for the approval of the projects.

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.

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
