There are many themes in the poem, such as (a) the theme of leadership (b) the theme of nature (c) the theme of imperfection (d) the theme of balance.

In the theme of leadership, the title and the context of the poem are fully about leadership. The title of the poem “the Leader and the Led” creates juxtaposition between two subjects (leading and following). The whole poem is about who wants to lead and who doesn’t want to be a follower of a certain leader.

Answer:In the theme of leadership, the title and the context of the poem are fully about leadership. The title of the poem “the Leader and the Led” creates juxtaposition between two subjects (leading and following). The whole poem is about who wants to lead and who doesn't want to be a follower of a certain leader.

Explanation:The theme of fear, distrust and suspicion

“The led” in this poem have shown that they do not trust any one of the animals vying for leadership position. They “dread” and “shudder” at the prospect of giving their mandate to potentially wicked and greedy leaders like the Lion, the Elephant and the Hyena.

Top Poetic devices in The Leader and the Led by Niyi Osundare are simile, metaphor, paradox and symbolism. Symbolism:- The poet uses 'pack' in lines 2, 10 and 15 to depict Africa and Nigeria.
