The story of Modupe Ogunleye Ishola is an inspiring and insightful one in which one learns that there is something great to be made from every bad situation. Ishola chose to stand out when the nation called her to serve and now, her name is forever imprinted in the walls of history.

Ogunleye served in Akure, Ondo and took pity on a young girl who she enrolled in Fanibi Community Primary School. However, the school which was the closest to her home had no facilities and the building was dilapidated.

Concerned about the environment in which young children had to learn, Ogunleye took on the duty to renovate and equip the school in a bid to encourage education and improve the lives all the young students of the school.

After sharing her intention with NYSC officials, she was left hanging for several months. Driven by her desire to improve things, she went on to secure a loan from a bank for which she is still paying till this very day.

Ishola managed to get N1.3 million which was the quoted need for renovation and purchase of school facilities. In a matter of weeks, the school environment was much better and the students are now learning in a conducive environment.

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.

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
