Ikemefuna, the son
Okonkwo always wanted, the boy that helped him with everything, was killed by the
men of Umuofia and also and most painfully by Okonkwo because it was time to sacrifice him.
After this Okonkwo was very sad and missed very much Ikemefuna, but because of his reputation of strong and
very tough he showed the opposite to everyone, except with his friend Obierika, he got of his
chest with him and told him everything
about how he was feeling and Obierika said to Okonkwo that it wasn´t good to be involved in Ikemefuna´s sacrifice. After this Obierika
asked Okonkwo to be the bride price business of his daughter wedding and he said yes of course.
Ezinmna the daughter of Ekwefi and Okonkwo was sick of fever, and everyone was afraid that she died like all
the other nine babies of Ekwefi. The community justice was based on the spirits and the judgment
they did about everything, they see the problems and make the solutions. Time after, Ezeudu died, a great
man and very respected by everyone on the village and because of this he had to
have a big funeral, this means that they killed animals in his memory and men
took guns and shoot to the sky. Okonkwo was one of the men that shoot at the
sky but by mistake he shoots the son of Ezeudu, which was the biggest mistake
of all. The people of Umuofia starts burning his farm, all his crops and he and his family were expelled from
Umuofia for seven years, they went to Okonkwos motherland, Mbanta. Things fall
apart for he and his family, and because of this they have to start from cero
there life.
