It has been a couple of days since Lkemefuna was killed by Okonkwo. This has been a distressful and full of emotion week. Okonkwo couldn’t sleep because of what happened to Lkemefuna. Serious regret would flood through Okonkwo’s mind so fiercely. He would loose sleep for days for his lost mind killing a innocent lad for pride sake.
When the officials of Umuofia came to arrest Lkemefuna and take him to the execution location, the officer hit the young lad on the head, and then the young lad ran to Okonkwo. Okonkwo didn’t want to be looked upon as a weak man so he killed Lkemefuna. An innocent little lad’s blood was on a cautious, and prideful mans hands.

Now it was extremely bad and unfortunate luck for a middle age women by the name of Ekwefi. She consumed 10beautiful children in this world. She was cursed by an ageing spirits that manifest itself in human flesh to die early, and young. This is a repeated cycle of what the spirits do in order to make a family tear and be depressed.
Nine out of ten children that Ekwefi consumed died at an early and young age. Ezinma was very ill and was dying of poor health. This very incident poured out fear on a worried mother’s heart. They treated her with all they could and hoped for the best for their daughter.

Oybanje is a very bad and hurtful spirit. Ezinma hid her iyi-uwa and she thought it would end all of her problems, but it only made it worse. So the cause of her being so ill was because she hid her iyi-uwa. So when times were rough Okonkwo and Ekwefi went to the expert doctor Okagbue. This was a rare case for the expert doctor and a really challenging one.
So Okagbue asked Ezinma where her iyi-uwa was and she led him on a serious adventure to find her iyi-uwa. She told the doctor that it was hidden in the Evil Forest. It was a long a trying day and at every moment Ezinma was getting worse by the moment. So eventually she led the doctor to the hole which she buried her iyi-uwa. They would the iyi-uwa and eventually a couple of days later she began to fill better.

Okonkwo and all the women in his compound were inside the hunt preparing the evening feast that was set for dawn. Okonkwo then decided it will be a good time to go outside with his son and do some harvesting labor. It was a normal day like all other days in the village of Umuofia. Then in a twinkling of an eye darkness covered the city like darkness covers space.
It looked like rain was about to shower down in a fierce and hostile way. Then a thought ran dangerously through Okonkwo wandering mind. It looked like darkness has covered the whole Umuofia village, but the thunderous sounds of citizen’s impacted Okonkwo whole thought. It seems like locust have come to Umuofia.

Lkemefuna was a young and well loved child. He was a like a foster child in a huge family. He grew to have a very close and desirable relationship with his master Okonkwo. Okonkwo felt like Lkemefuna was his very handsome and well grown son.
The council of Umuofia decided to kill Lkemefuna. Okonkwo felt like a sword just stabbed him in his giant heart. It was the most emotional scene in this novel. It was the furthest thought from my imagination that he would be killed. I believe that Lkemefuna deserved to live among the Umuofia citizens, and enjoy a happy and prospering life.

The officers of Umuofia went to arrest Lkemefuna so they can take him into the Forest and execute him. When the officers came to yield the young lad, the whole Okonkwo family felt the spirit of depression come over them. They really love Lkemefuna and only wished for the best for the young lad.
On the way to the Forest the officers were beating and mocking the young lad. Lkemefuna knew that his trip back to his original family would never come to past. He felt a horrible feeling inside him telling him this might be his very last trip. I can only imagine the thoughts that were running through the young lads lost mind. Eventually the officers hit lkemefuna with the deadly weapon, and the young lad ran fiercely to his foster father and Okonkwo killed Lkemefuna.

Maduka was an amazing young man with incredible wrestling abilities. It wasn’t lengthy before he was the gossip of the village. Normally the adults of the village didn’t show no interest in the young people wrestling matches, but this particular wrestling event cause them to become excited in their hearts. Very few people have ever seen such an exciting young wrestling match take place.
Maduka won the match within seconds of it beginning. The crowed roared with claps, and thunderous voices. Three you men from Maduka team came to him and threw him upon their shoulders. It was a very sensational moment for every living soul in the arena.

Ekwefi followed close behind to hinder anything from happening to her only child Ezinma.
Chielo was a very close friend with Ekwefi. Chielo was a window with two children. Then out came Chielo and Ezinma from the Cave to head back to the village of Umuofia. Chielo brought Ezinma back to her bed and then she departed.

This is the account of the great battle of the two young leaders of the village. It was well past dusk when all the wrestling began. The battle began and the two young leaders bounce in circles. Both of the young men where well known in the village, therefore they knew most of each others stunts.
The battle was very fierce while the blood of the people watching ran cold through their veins. The volume of the crowed was so great that it violently swallowed the drummer’s beats. This was a very enjoyable fight for all the elders, and citizens of the village. The battle was long and exciting. Unfortunately Okafo defeated Amadiora at the very last stunt.
