Speaking to newsmen in Abuja, Ganduje said: “As far as I am concerned he should look for brains rather than considering political parties that may decide to undermine him later.

"I think what is important is to get good brains, committed people who are experienced, who are achievers. I think that is what we need at this moment.’’

Ganduje expressed confidence despite the fact that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) had approached the governorship election tribunal to challenge his victory at the recent poll.

He revealed that said that a number of political parties in the state had come together to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the APC.

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
