Great wrestler, warrior, and leader, Okonkwo was banished earlier. His gun fired and shot one of our own at the funeral for one of our great men, Ezeudu. Since he went against our great earth goddess, by killing a member of the clan, he shall not return for at least seven years. He will be banished to a foreign place. Sources say that he is not taking to this change well, and does not like not bieng in control, as he is used to. He will be staying with family, his uncle Uchendo, in his mother's homeland for the duration of his exile. We also hear he is already planning to make his big return something to remember. Is this only wishful thinking, or should we expect him as our highest title seven years from now? How will he cope with the loss of his oldest son, Nwoye to the white men? Will he marry off his daughters, and how will he take to the new white men that have gained a liking to this land, and have grown in power and a following? We know this, he will not be leading us to war with the christians, andhis position is up for grabs.
