Onyendu Ndigbo

Der neue Zaubername / A Spectre nomenclature

A new kingship, non-kingship nomenclature
An enthronement of the world Exposures
Offentlisch, Die neuter zuaber Name, A Spectre nomenclature
Intended to deal with friction and expose the impostures

The new rank for diaspora's of Igbo communities
Wholly and strictly, a non-royals
Publicly anointed by all royals
Dedicated as leadership-opportunities

A Sacred name, a weird title for the status in diaspora
Springs from the attempted uproar and abolition
Of revered the Eze Ndi Igbo titles in diaspora
To prevent similar righteous diplomatic friction

Its trending viral unabated,
Any Eze that leaves his premises become un) debated
The Onyendu Ndigbo
The community coordination and cultural promotion of Ndigbo



Onyendu Ndigbo;
Eze Ndigbo outside of Igbo land
A sacred, designation reserved exclusively Ezes in foreign land
Leaders and moral guide of the Igbo people
Legally and societally clarified title for Igbo leaders and people

Onyendu Ndigbo
To pacify South African traditional authorities
Bring solace to the weary and wandering SA youth authorities
To build acceptance and legalize installation of onyendu Ndigbo

Onye Ndu will build the similar diplomatic fronts
Create, collaborate and coronate as 'Eze Ndigbo' front
Clarifying the situation and explaining diplomatic outreaches
To protect Igbo people, Igbo riches and Igbo outreaches

The enthronement has indeed sort out issues:
Clarified the misunderstood and misconstrued trashes
Clarified formally coroneted, and crabs clashes
Strictly de-royalize the position but make it corporate
A gathering of cultural, business and corporate) s

Bye! ! Eze Ndi Igbo diaspora, you were Kings and leaders
Welcome! ! Onyendu Ndigbo diaspora; you are business and cultural Leaders
Coronations Handled locally by diaspora associations
Diaspora associations is the heart beat of Igbo communities
Igbo communities strictly present massive opportunities
Opportunities for Igbos whether home or outside Igbo lands

Has Onyendu Ndigbo changes solved SA youth unrests in SA Lands?
Has Onyendu Ndigbo changes moved Ghana youths from hatred?
Have these changes elevated love for Igbos in their lands
Or are those inherent Tribo- Socio- cultural frictions

Like natural frictions in demand and supply traded
Why target the Igbos and the Igbo leaderships?
Based in education, bereft opportunities and blind leadership?

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This poem is a contemporary, socio-political commentary exploring how the Igbo diaspora adapts its cultural leadership titles to survive and thrive amidst foreign diplomatic frictions and xenophobia. It specifically highlights the transition from the royal title of 'Eze Ndigbo' (King of the Igbos) to the non-royal, corporate title of 'Onyendu Ndigbo' (Leader of the Igbos) to pacify host countries like South Africa and Ghana. Der neue Zaubernam/ A Spectre nomenclature.
