Opinion polls and US midterm elections (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If opinion polls in the United States are anything to go by, the Republicans are in for what former President Barack Obama famously described as a ‘shellacking’ after his party’s below par outing at the November 2010 midterm elections during his first term in office. President Donald Trump’s poll ratings are widely reported to be at historically low levels. Matters have not been helped by what is turning out to be a protracted war against Iran, the negative implications for global oil prices and
Nigeria, federalism and the worship of an unknown deity (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As he commenced the filling of his Joint Admissions and Matriculation Examination (JAMB) form, preparatory to the pursuit of his university education, his father asked him which course he intended studying.

Read excerpt
Professor Chris Anyokwu, in the collection’s Pro-word, likens Tunde Olusunle‘s Abuja poems in some respects to the landscape or Romantic poetry of William Wordsworth. He also references the poet’s debt to Professor Niyi Osundare, “his precursor-poet via his adroit mobilisation of alliteration as well as allied sonic armature of speakerly verse”.
