Villagers Kill Six Bandits In Kaduna

A mob of angry villagers has killed five bandits and one other was knocked down by a vehicle in Sanga and Lere oocal government areas (LGAs) of Kaduna State.

The Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs in Kaduna, Samuel Aruwan, disclosed this in a statement on Friday.


He said, “Two of the bandits killed had attacked a businessman and dispossessed him of his money and other valuables at Fadan Karshi in Sanga LGA.

“On receiving the distress call, the military and police went to the location.

“However, on getting to the scene, some angry locals had already mobbed the bandits and burnt them to ashes.

“In the same local government, on Thursday night, armed bandits opened fire on motorists plying the Aboro-Kafanchan Road.

‘”The bullets hit one Richard Sabo who while driving, knocked down one of the bandits and killed him.

“Sadly, Mr Sabo who suffered bullet wounds was confirmed dead at Gwantu General Hospital.”

The commissioner added that bandits from a neighbouring state who specialised in stealing livestock were also killed by a mob in the Lere Local Government Area.

He said the gunmen were chased and overpowered at Domawa village, where three of them met their end in the hands of the angry residents.

“Also in the Lere local government, security agencies reported that some bandits from a neighbouring state who specialised in stealing livestock were also killed through mob action.

“The bandits were chased and overpowered at Domawa village where three of them met their end in the hands of the mob.

“On a sad note, the government is in receipt of a report of the killing of a commercial motorcyclist, one Hudu Yahaya of Ungwan Nungu village in the Sanga Local Government Area. He was beheaded by bandits who escaped with his motorcycle.

“Governor Nasir El-Rufai has sent condolences to the families of Richard Sabo and Hudu Yahaya and prayed for the repose of their souls.”

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.

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
