The Coronation Of The African Ninja.
The coronation of the African Ninja
In an enclave nicknamed Naija
During the colonialism of COVID-Nineteen
Trade and commerce being lockdown by this thing
Gathering and socializing, no more…
Hugging and hand shaking, no more…
What a ruthless colonial master
That had shutdown every matter!
Cities has become ghost towns
But for the skeletal to and fro of images of morticians
This kind of colonization,
Resisted by self isolation
Insulated by facemasks, hand washing and sanitization,
Has dominated every nation
And had caused the forceful coronation
Of the African Ninja
Emergence of the guerilla warlord, in Naija
Fully armoured with fabrics, waxed in Africa
Skillfully weaved and tapered in Enyimba
Signature and trademark of Aba
King of Creativity and innovation in Naija
The coronation of the African Ninja
A forceful enthronement by this Corona…
Ezemmuo, the chief priest of Chukwu Okike Abiama,
Will he become the next King Jaja…?
