Thank you Chidi. It was for that reason that Ohaneze Ndigbo, forbade any Igbo to acquire the title of Eze outside Igboland some years ago.

Salimonu,
It also infringes on the culture of the Igbos, since as you rightly pointed out, every Eze must have a domain in Igbo land.
Igbos in diaspora could have their leaders (Onye Isi Ndi Igbo), but such leaders are definitely not Ezes and should not be referred as such.
CAO.
