By Remy Ilona If you heard ori-aku( enjoyer of wealth), I hope you also heard odozi-aku( protector/ builder of wealth). Our culture Omenana was far too advanced to make our women ' housewives', i.e., just ori-aku, that irresponsible men can abuse, and starve of money.

Secondly, the Igbo have always kept a holy day to honor CHI UKWU. Such holy days were observed as Eke Ukwu or orie ukwu depending on the Igbo republic. Retaining Saturday as the Igbo holiday is therefore in tandem ...
