Being igbotic

I still don't like Christmas trees, or the smell of rose on a valentine night. I become allergic to chocolate at Easter and the Easter bunny is just another edible rabbit to me. Turkey is like cocaine during thanksgiving, a hard drug everyone is addicted to, I just sell it at that time. I feel like a business man with the Igbo spirit, what can i be if not Igbo? Ekene Mgbechikwelu just tagged me to a whole note about her being herself, so even if I feel very Igbo or sound igbotic, this is just the right time to embrace it. Especially since I just found out being Igbo is better than being in any cult in the world, cultism and occultism is basically about brotherhood and helping each other, at least that's how I see it. I don't know how others who enjoy killing themselves and trying to hustle who is more powerful see it. I see it as a medium to have more brothers. But in my recent travel, I started realizing that even tho I'm very igbotic, I'm not even igbotic enough. I see more Igbo people around every part of the country than I see members of any brotherhood. And trust me, I've been to the east, west, north and presently living in the dirty south. It will amaze you how often I run into igbos here. It's like a cult, and the identification of the brotherhood is simply "nwanne ibu Onye Igbo?" Simple! In my travels to abuja and kaduna, I met with more igbos than I met Hausas, just jumping busses. And these are cities where we are often killed and rejected. Yet it feels like even sitting in a death row, we still #OccupyNigeria. I don't need to explain Lagos to you. Being Igbo outside Igbo land is the highest cult you can belong to. You know, you cannot be drowning and speaking Igbo and you will be left to drown, it's impossible. Just like you walking into a market even in Cotonou and speak Igbo, yet feel like a stranger, it's impossible. You know, my pastor once told me, after I smashed someone's head thru a louvers window at a retreat ground, he said "God knows what he was doing when he created you, no matter how much the devil try, you will still worship God and spread his word one day", I was just a kid then. Maybe 10 or 11, I can't remember but I was just a kid. I just didn't say anything back, I just kept my face like Al Pacino in Carlito's way and starred him in the eyes without a word as the camp security came to take me to Officer Henry James the big punisher back then, I just wanted to be Italian more than anything then. After reading Puzo's works, But not after this awakening, you know one other thing better than reading? Traveling! When you read, you picture. When you travel, you see. Yeah, Balotelli even having a hard time being Italian. That world isn't for negros. When I said I hate Christmas, valentine and Easter, I meant I usually hate where I find myself by default, I like seeing myself at the other end of a crowded room. I hate any popular music and trending things, while people seek the vogue, I embrace the odd, I used to like partying and clubbing when a few people did it, now everybody wants to be social and out going, I'm embracing the nerd in me. In a world where everyone wants to go to heaven, I'm buying condoms for demons I wanna make love to in hell. The instant everyone started smoking weed, I quit. The love of Kendrick Lamar made me prefer J.cole and in the state where Federal government college was very sought, I became a commando, I don't like being with the crowd or relaxing where I'm found. I've repelled crowd mentality the much I could and wouldn't love to say I love being Igbo because I'm Igbo, I don't even know how other tribes manage to feel special but for what it's worth, I love being Igbo and even more being igbotic. That's another word that needs to be added to the dictionary, Igbotic. This iPhone keeps underlining it with red reminding me it's not in the dictionary yet, but I kept on typing it now it even suggests it to me when I type. Just like the word 'nigger', the word igbotic was invented to make us feel bad about ourselves, but we embraced it and now flipping it to something only we igbos can call ourselves, I just keep wondering whoever told them Igbos can ever stop being proud about themselves. If asked on a scale of 0 to 10, how much I love being Nigerian, my answer will be very igbotic.
