Funke Akindele is more responsible than you - Uche Maduagwu says as he shades Tonto Dikeh

Celebrity commentator Uche Maduagwu recently shared his personal opinion of actress Funke Akindele. He showered quite a lot of praises on her. But even more, he presented her as an embodiment of who a true Nollywood diva should be. According to him, she was responsible, talented and a true dignified personality.

More than just showering the actress with accolades, Uche shaded other female celebrities who he felt were not on par with Funke's optimum, highly 'responsible' standard.

For one, Uche subtly trolled the likes of Tonto Dikeh who, according to him, were unlike Funke Akindele. For one, he said the 41-year-old popularly known as Jenifa will never go unclad for any photoshoot neither would she insult the father of her children.

Uche hammered on the need for female celebrities to stop glorifying indecency and start walking the talk. Again, he attacked the likes of Tonto Dikeh by saying they should "act like the Jesus they preach", or better still, emulate Funke Akindele.

Read his words below:

"...Sometimes, I just feel some "drama queen" celebrities have let the youth in this country down with their sudden and irresponsible display... on social media. But the question on my mind has always been this, why can't these "radical for attention" crop of female celebrities emulate a great legend like my sister, @funkejenifaakindele?

"She is happily married, talented, successful, and above all, a great mother not like those who insult the father of their child in public... Why can't they learn to be responsible like her?

"In Africa, whenever a woman goes ... in public, it shows her level of stupidity and the depth of her inferiority complex, but these shameless celebrities have refused to act like the Jesus they claim to preach, well, how can they act like Jesus, when they can't even emulate someone as virtuous, responsible and well behaved like @funkejenifaakindele in Nollywood."

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
