Answer:

Niyi employs satire to critique 'the political brawls and estimations of Nigeria's major linguistic groups.'

Explanation:

As we know, satire is a literary device that primarily aims to ridicule or critique the social or political follies in order to bring it to attention. In the poem titled 'The Leader and the led' by Niyi Osundare, satire has been employed to mock the major political groups of Nigeria who are in the rat race to gain political power as well as money. He also <u>ridicules them by saying that they even fail to glorify their best leaders and constantly being involved in buying votes, murdering people to gain power, and turning animalistic in nature</u>.

Which of the following statements BEST describes contemporary literature?
denpristay [2]
Some people are saying it's C-Deeply personal.  Although, to be honest, ALL literature is A because it depends on how you interpret it.  That's why we have literature classes and 10 people can write 10 different opinions on what the literature is saying.  Since contemporary simply means the writing written after WWII era, it can range so much, that saying it's deeply personal, in my opinion, is too broad. So I would say A, unless you have something in your reading/lessons that say otherwise, or gives a specific answer.
