A true Igbo man is like the Agu, he is fearless and takes delight in providing for his family no matter the odd.

This is why an Igbo man has no problem marrying a financially unstable woman as far as she is willing to struggle with him and manage his wealth and home.

Few men who married women in the past for financial gains, had themselves to blame at the long run.

Because, it is rare to find a woman who could foot the family's bill without trying to Lord over her husband.

None of our Igbo ancestors ever asked a woman what she brings to the table.

Rather he prepares the table before her and let her manage it.

This is why the ancient Igbo men referred to their wives as either Oriaku ( One who comes to enjoy wealth) or Odiziaku ( One who comes to take care of wealth).

The Ikpa dance is a traditional dance common to the people of Ebonyi state.

The dance is also considered in the recent civilization as being fe**sh.

The dance is considered as being sacred by men of culture and tradition.

The dance is carefully reserved for the entertainment of men of title such as Onyibes and Oshiahus.

The dance is only carried out during burial/funeral rites of a titled man.

It is a taboo for a man of title to dance to the Ikpa dance tune.

It is believed that any title man who dances to the rythym of Ikpa invites mysterious death upon himself and family.

It is a common belief in Ebonyi state that the Ikpa dance originated from Ohaozara.

In some parts of Enugu state, it is a taboo to pay a pregnant woman's bride price.

The man may come with his people to marry her,

They are permitted to perform every other traditional rites,

But they must keep the bride price until after the woman is delivered of her baby.

Then, the man is to come back in the company of his kinsmen with jars of palm wine and other items the brides family request.

He is to pay his bride's dowry on that day.

Only then, will he be celebrated as a bonafide son in-law.

In the case where he fails to return with his kinsmen to pay his bride's dowry,

It is considered that he and the woman are simply befriending themselves.

If anything happens to the man, the children he had with the woman becomes the children of her father.

You have to first kìll a cow in their name or names before you can take or donate a cow to another person in order for their spirit to reach their final destination.

It's important for every Igbo person to learn about this important tradition as a failure to do so has consequences such as death.

Amongst the ndi Igbo, a man and a woman are not equal and do not share equal rights.

A man/husband is superior to his wife and is the undisputed head of his family.

The Igbo woman is raised to submit to him and take care of her home which she owns through her husband.

The ancient Igbo women, just like the biblical Sarah, call their husbands "My Lord" this translates to 'Onye nwem' in Igbo language.

It is important to note that a woman is not neglected in the Igbo culture,

The man is only placed slightly above her.

Nzu in Igbo Culture:

In Igbo cosmology, there are two types of Nzu: Okenzu and Nwunye Nzu (commonly known as Nzu omumu in some parts of Igboland).

In Igbo tradition, Nzu symbolizes purity, peace, happiness, and love. In some Igbo Communities, when a stranger visits a household, they are first presented with white Nzu to smear on their hand or forehead, and the host also applies it. This ritual, known as Ima Nzu, signifies the mutual reception with love, peace, happiness, and purity of heart.

There are three traditional ways of applying Nzu:

1. Ima Nzu
2. Ika Nzu
3. Itu Nzu

Itu Nzu and Ika Nzu are primarily reserved for men based on their social status, while Ima Nzu is traditionally for women. However, women, especially Ndi Ezenwaanyi/Agbaranwaanyi, can also perform Ika Nzu to invoke cognate spirits for action.

Nzu is also used during childbirth, where the newborn is rubbed with Nzu for several months to remove impurities like germs and heat rashes. Visitors to the newborn also apply Nzu, symbolizing the child's innocence and purity, and indicating the visitor's goodwill.

'Igbu efi' is a significant practice in the whole of Igbo land.

Though it may be practiced differently amongst different groups of Igbos.

The name 'Ogbuefi' which translates to 'the one who k!.lls cow' is a common name amongst some Igbo families.

Ogbuefi title is usually awarded to men who have buried their father with a cow.

According to past oral history, it is believed that human heads were used in the olden days to bury a respectable person.

But, due to civilization and Christianity, the Igbo people resorted to sending off their deceased to the land of the ancestors by k! .lling a cow.

The cow fit for this purpose is usually the Igbo native cow, which is quite smaller than the Awusa cow, yet more expensive.

the cow is but.chered before the the umunna( kinsmen).

The Ada ( deceased first daughter) is given an Aka odo ( Pestle) to hit the waist of the cow three times.

After which the Okpara( first son ) is given a sharp knife to chop off the tail.

He must make sure to chop it off on one strike to avoid being fined.

The Ada picks up the Cow's tail and dance with it accompanied by the umuada( married daughters of the clan)

The Ada would cry, "Nnamo!" If it was her father's funeral or "Nnemo!" If It were her mother's funeral.

All these and more are rituals carried out to ensure that it is well accepted by the ancestors.

Any man who is yet to k!.ll a cow for his father's funeral is prohibited from touching the Cow's meat, lest he incurs the wrath of the gods.

In places like Ihuokpara, in Nkanu east Area of Enugu state,

The Ogbuefi hangs the skull of the cow on his wall to notify everyone that he has given his late father a befitting burial.

This is the highest form of Ozoship in Ihuokpara.
