The kind of greatness that we boast of in Emanyulia is not a conferred greatness. You do not get there because your father was a governor, the president of an alliance of shrines or a knight. Indeed real greatness anywhere cannot be conferred, nor can it be inherited. It cannot be planted, but it rather chooses where to lodge itself and grow. It is the greatness of the great iroko tree, the king of all trees. This great African tree chooses where to grow. But this greatness is also like the kind of greatness that the people of Kenya should be looking for, as they dream of glorious days.
