Ahiajoku Lecture 2000
Igbo enwe eze

Lecturer: 
  Professor Cyril Agodi Onwumechili

"The legacies of various cultures in a country tend to remain ingrained as they are transmitted from generation to generation. .... "Igbo enwe eze" is a reference to the characteristic traits of the Igbo. It should not be taken literally as a total denial that any king ever existed anywhere in the entire Igboland. .... There was at least one exception. .... Despite this, most Igbo communities had no kings.

Oha na eze 
Let us proclaim Igbo enwe eze
Let us say it loudly
Let us say it proudly."
