What is Omenala? What is Iwu Ala? What is Iwu Oha? Is Igbo worldview merely tradition, or is it a deeper system of law, nature, power, democracy, and civilization?
In this powerful conversation, Prof. Osuagwu explains Igbo thought as a system rooted in natural law, Chukwu, Ala, Omenala, Dibia knowledge, communal authority, and people-centred power. He argues that Ndi Igbo must recover the meaning behind the words they inherited, because a people who cannot explain their own civilization will eventually allow others to define it for them.
This episode is deep, challenging, and necessary.
Watch, reflect, comment, and share with every Igbo person who cares about history, identity, law, leadership, culture, and the future of Ala Igbo.
