Shiites To Buhari: You’re Reckless, Incompetent Ruler With No Empathy For Nigerians

The Islamic Movement of Nigeria, better known as Shiite, has criticised President Muhammadu Buhari over his failure to put an end to the senseless killings of innocent Nigerians by terrorists and bandits.

According to a statement by the secretary, academic forum of Shiite, Abdullahi Musa, the killing of 43 farmers in Borno State shows that the government has failed Nigerians in its duty to protect lives and property.


“The report of close to four scores of farmers killed in Zabarmari community of Jere Local Government, Borno State, by the so-called Boko-Haram elements on Saturday, 28 November 2020 is disheartening, matter-of-factly,” the statement read.

“Such a massacre of innocent citizens is a cold-hearted crime against humanity. Every human life needs to be treated with respect and regard, but not an ounce was accorded to the victims. 

“The wave of senseless violence and insecurity in this country, Nigeria, particularly in the North, is symptomatic of a dysfunctional system and wrenching incompetence of the autocratic ruler with a reckless disregard for the ruled.

“As we condemn the beheading of Innocent farmers, we also condole with their families, the helpless and hapless people of Borno State and all the Nigerian citizens, on this cycle of tragedies”. 

“It is unfortunate that we have a set of people at the corridors of power who are senseless, incompetent and have no regard for human life. They are only good at attacking, killing and jailing peaceful protesters who are calling on the government to do the right thing,” the group added.”

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
