I wen to the village this christmas and discovered that the current Igwe died about a year ago. I asked them why why his son has not mounted the mantle of leadership only to discover that  an election needs to take place where any body can vie for the exalted position. That's how democratic Igbo people are.

The only reason Igbo people are finding it difficult in the Nigerian political terrain is because of our egalitarian nature. It's the same reason why people say we're not united.

I even doubt it can be learnt in 8 weeks talk less of 8 weekends.

There's nothing one won't see in this country.
