From the amazing Morehouse College Atlanta, USA (an all-male, historically black school), young men drop those ageless words in the Igbo Nation: if you believe, your personal (chi) will believe. That is the spirit that drives the republican mindset of entrepreneurial capitalism, personal liberty and responsibility.
Onye kwe, chi ya ekwe [if you believe, your personal god will follow along]. It looks ecclesiastical when young men make heaven pay attention. If you understand what they are saying in that short stanza, you will understand how their chis are connecting to the main Chi (Chineke, the Chukwu Abiama). Udo diri unu [peace unto you all]

My Response to a comment: Chi kwe first then madu kwe. But madu kwe first then chi kwe. The capital Chi is Chineke, the Supreme God while the small cap chi is the personal god. In Igbo mythology, chi submits to madu (the person) while madu submits to Chi (Osebuluwa, the Supreme God).
