More trouble for IPOB leader Kanu as Biafra activist says he collected money from PDP, Atiku

- Anthony Nwoko, a Biafra activist, has called out IPOB leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu

- Nwoko, at a press conference, said the IPOB leader has failed and is not fit as Biafra leader

- Among others, Nwoko also alleged that Kanu collected money from PDP ahead of presidential election

Anthony Nwoko, an activist, has berated the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, and his Biafra Independent Movement (BIM) counterpart, Ralph Uwazuruike, for compromising the Biafra struggle for personal profit.

Nwoko, in a report available in Vanguard, raised heavy allegations against the duo among which was collecting money from Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Speaking at a press briefing in Enugu on Friday, March 23, aggrieved Nwoko also said Kanu has failed and is inconsequential to the movement.

He said: “It is time for Igbos to realize that they have fumbled for a long time. The agitators from the Igbo land have failed. Nnamdi Kanu with his group has failed, Uwazuruike and his group failed, Uchenna Madu with his group has failed.

''Let them come and see the great light from the East who is going to offer great glory into their lives this year, 2019.

“On the part of Nnamdi Kanu, whatever money he collected from the PDP which I saw from the revelation, let Atiku go and collect his money and forget about IPOB business with Biafra. IPOB and other groups don’t have any standing to talk about Biafran nation because they are not mandated to do it.

“Nnamdi Kanu has already decided that he will not walk within Christ’s mandate and for that reason, IPoB and his group should forget about the Biafran message that God has sent to his people. Wherever Nnamdi Kanu is, let him and his boys sheath their sword and seek peace. Many have died in the name of IPOB. I tell my people to repent for the hour has come.''

Giving out advice to President Muhammadu Buhari on his victory, He also called on the Igbo people to look inward to another direction towards the actualisation of their Biafra struggle.

He added:''You want Biafra, give me seven days. Biafra is not a hidden mandate; it is a nation that will give peace to the entire world.

“Nobody can cover the light of God. Tell the elected governors that God is about to do a new thing in this nation, precisely the Biafran Nation.

''Buhari should calm down and welcome the glory of God which is superior to him. If he thinks he is going to rule Nigeria with this kind of situation the nation is in right now, he is making a blunder. God did not accept his first four years and he has also rejected his second tenure.''

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
