Dedicated to Professor Amadioha MarkAnthony Nze
—–
Amadioha, the Living deity, he refers himself as and cherished to be called. An intellectual giant, highly gifted by his Chi and has emerged an epic personality. He is a legend, grand and noble.
His historical achievements unassumingly speak volumes.
Like the city skyline, your brilliance brilliantly adorns humanity with this amazing luminosity deserving of accolades.
Not required to be given by the stingy pay masters but our father’s offspring,, the worthy of them all.
Has unleashed a potent force,
Agile and virile, levered and revered,
Not spectators in the academic landscape, a formidable army of intellectuals and you, the activator of this groundswell.
The academic bourgeois of the season, seasoned and flavored with the rich ingenious African patterns, patterned for preeminence. Has surpassed banknotes and out weighs coins
In this academia of the millennia,
In the colony of knowledge,
Adorned with the revered privilege,
Sought after by many merchants,
Who, making a merchandise of the black gold,
Buried in the heart of Africa,
Ingenuity and creativity, a spiral and a ripple band,
Woven in the genius breed,
Granted by the creator to his achy type,
Considered by this fora as our immunity.
Matchless with ingenuity,
Empowered by his Chi,
Enchanted with passion,
Resilient in his vision,
Fashioned for his mission,
Envisioned the glory of his people.
The African of old,
Dauntlessly and courageously imbibed,
Sharpening the thoughts in the minds, the minds of his brethren,
The assumed dead and buried minds,
Minds of man in the men,
So they say and so they thought,
Were long dead, forlorn and forgone.

Waking up the giants of the gallant,
The gallantry stolen by the assumed wise,
So, they thought, l guess.
Yet, hidden in the unseen black blood,
Wounded and abandoned in the sea of ignorance,
Have become casualties of our raving raging war, Of a people enraged and outraged onward to self discovery for self actualization.
Against imperialism and second slavery,
The slavery of our minds,
Now! Echoes! Recurrently and coherently,
The chants of great reawakening,
Of sincere bond men and enslaved women,
Embittered by their emotions,
Harassed by poverty and hunger,
Embarrassed by shame and nakedness,
Paraded on the streets of ignorance,
Volunteers of our shame,
Now! Just now! But How?
Suddenly, has raised a battalion of critical thinkers,
Answered the great ancestry beguile,
Clothed with the fabric of his pure dark black blood,
Woven with the garment of Africanism,
The ancestral trajectory of man,
Africa! The origin of humanity, the pathway to mankind.
The harbinger of ingenuity and dexterity,
Has found you worthy of this mission,
The freedom of your people, the liberation of your kind.
The king maker himself, Amadioha, the Living deity.
In this legendary march of freedom, ‘ije ñnwere onwe’
A spectator l act not.
Clamoring the liberation of Africans, my liberation!
From imperialism and mind slavery,
From political and religious jingoism,
Imprisoned, caged and sieged,
The walls you see exist in your mind.
In this legendary march of breaking free from the matrix and unshackle from mental bondage, a call we answered afore time,
Behold the legend, the king maker, leading the band of this ingenious group, of intellectual circle.
Has unleashed a colony of think tank,
The influential force only strategy can create to capture vision
To wrestle in the cognitive gallery ,
Where the reason villa submerged the intuitive city
And conscious work floors empty arguments
Have finally arrived
The scene of intellectuality.
Zigzagging we thought yet, winding it was.
Alas, glorious, the destination we embrace.
This legendary trophy will last for decades,
Decades will run for ages,
As the mind’s eyes never ages,
So these living raving pages allege we imagined.
