In Nigeria the Igbos generally occupied the former Eastern Region and a part of the Mid Western region. The Igbos generally had no Kings or Chiefs (i.e. Igbos enwe-Eze). However few towns like Onitsha had what looked like a recognized chief. The Igbos operated a democratic system of Government. The highest democratic institution among the Igbos is the Oha-na Eze (i.e. the Town Assembly). The largest political unit was the village/village group. This was by kindred then family unit.

The Igbos had a decentralised system of government. The executive, legislative and judicial power were vested in the

Oha-na Eze
the council of elders
the Ofor title holders
the family
the Ozor title holders
the Age-Grade
the Umuada
the ‘Ala’ or the Earth’s goddess represented by a Chief Priest.

The administrative system was decentralized and characterized by the principle of acephalous (absence of a centralized government). It was therefore a chiefless society which was segmentary and egalitarian in nature. There was no supreme king like Oba and Emirs in the North. Interestingly, however, each village in Igbo society is normally administered like a Republic, independent or sovereign state.

While other primitive black people were busy mystifying and attributing the divine power to an ordinary human being in the name of Kingship (Oba, Emir, Kabe etc) , Ndigbo understood freedom and right to life and decisions and devised the most powerful democracy the world has ever seen. Something USA is trying to attain.
In Igboland Human law and Constitution supersedes any religious and superstitious belief.
Igbo land is the first Nation to legalize same sex marriage

In Nigeria Ndigbo are the only people with Indigenous cloth production known as "Akwete" and "Ákwá mmiri"
A feat that was later shared with Kano but after kano had contact with the Arabs.
OTHER groups in Nigeria like Yoruba were basically naked until they had contact with the Fulani and Europeans.
Akwete clothes also serve as a means of exchange in ancient Igboland.
Unlike other ethnic groups in Nigeria that started wearing clothes in 18th century (Yoruba) and 11th century (Hausa). The date of Akwete clothing can't be determined with many archeologists and historian saying it is as old as the Igbo nation.

FEMINISM
Ndigbo are one of the two groups in West Africa to grant special status to women and allow women to take part in the government of the nation. The other group is Ashanti of Ghana.
In Igboland women have special political group known as Umuada.
The Aba women riot was carried out by the female only political wing in Igbo land

LITERATURE
Ndigbo are the only group in Sub-Saharan Africa that have indigenous writing system known as Nsibidi. The other that would have rivaled this feat is Ethiopia as well but since they don't consider themselves as Negros, Ndigbo have it. This writing system is also practiced by Igbo allies like Ibibio and Efik

Yoruba miscreant are coming.

Very useless statement

The chest beaters at it again..

Democratic like Okorocha Vs Uzodinma right?

Yoruba miscreant are coming.

They have primitive government known as Kingship (Oba, Alaafin and Ooni) something everybody is ditching to practice the Igbo advanced democracy and they are shameless to talk about it in public.
The problem Igbo man have with Nigeria is the system of governance. Nigeria doesn't understand Democracy.
Even USA doesn't understand it to the level of an Igbo man (there are many reports to this).
They can't allow the Autonomy and resource control that comes with democracy. Something an Igbo man is born with.

Bench warmer fellow

Ndigbo are the only Sub-Saharan group/Nation with Indigenous writing system, days/calender and year. The other that would have challenged Ndigbo for this status is the Ethiopians but they don't consider themselves as Negros.
Days of the week in Igboland is four days/week (Eke, orie, afọr and Nkwo)
Igbo new year is the third week of February.
No other group in Nigeria has this. They only copied the western and Arabic calendar
