The report quoted Maoming as saying that the signing of the agreement on the 'Belt and Road Initiative' between Presidents Muhammadu Buhari and Xi Jingpin was a welcome development for both countries.

“Within the framework of the agreement on the 'Belt and Road Initiative' signed between Presidents Muhammadu Buhari and Xi Jinping, there would be more business and trade transaction between China and Nigeria.

“We do know that more Nigerians would be traveling to China, and more of Chinese businesses and investments coming to Nigeria.

“We therefore know that the need to provide more Nigerians with visas is very important," he said adding that what Nigerians should know is that the process for applying for the Chinese visas is one of the fastest and most convenient.

According to Maoming, the Chinese consulate and embassy will continue to give preference to Nigerians who apply for visas to China for businesses, investments and other purposes.

He expressed the Chinese government’s commitment to strengthening relations with Africa adding that more businesses and investments should be expected in Nigeria from China in the years ahead.

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.

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
