A young woman has gained the attention of some well-meaning Nigerians after she was spotted begging in the hot sun with her triplets.

Some men have fathered children then abandoned their responsibility for the woman alone as they lead a new life elsewhere.

Raising a child can be a handful, let alone having to take care of three babies at the same time. Such is the case of the woman identified as Amanda.

According to a Facebook user, Chigozie Effe, Amanda was seen begging on the roadside at Summit junction in Delta state, with her three newly born babies in the hot sun.

Upon interrogation, the poor woman revealed that she was in a relationship with a man whom she thought would marry her. However, he absconded when he found out she was pregnant with triplets.

After deciding not to get rid of the pregnancy, she delivered two baby boys and a girl.

In the photo shared on the social networking site, Amanda was seen sitting on a wrapper laid on the ground as she cradled one of her babies with one hand and held an umbrella with the other to shield the rest of her kids from the sun.

In other news, Legit.ng reported that a Nigerian lady raised mixed reactions on social media after she claimed that a man who says he loves her already owes her money.

A Twitter user identified as Nneka on the Twitter platform, revealed a man was solely responsible for catering to a woman and her financial needs.

Using herself as an example, she stated that a man is meant to provide for her financially. Responding to a lady who challenged her belief, she revealed that once a man professes love to her, he automatically owes her money.

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
