Written by Okenwa, Olisah and published in 1963.The Igbos ( written as Ibo or Iboe by some) are an ethnic group found in Southeastern Nigeria, West Africa. This booklet is an exposition on the native customs and laws the Igbos keep. Topics such as Title taking, Gender,Land ownership, Marriage and Courtship laws are covered. It should be noted that some of these customs have been lost or forfeited when Igbos converted to Christianity although it is common to find many who combine African Traditional religion and Christianity.
