one hundred-seventy four.

cultural renaming.

no, i am not of an igbo
tribe
but i am an igbo from a
nation of igbo
people.

that is, human beings whom
speak a native language that is the same
but different from a people of the
same country, nigeria.

no fiber in my being belongs to a
group branded a name by a people
whom oppressed and distressed the
communal lifestyle we once lived
harmoniously.

i am an igbo from a
of nation of igbo people.
not of an igbo tribe.
i am human.
