Product Type: eBook Title of Book: IGBO BOY: Profit and Prejudice Name of Author: Emmanuel Akaolisa ChukwuebukaBook DescriptionThe book answers the Igbo question in Nigeria. It starts from the story of the Igbo apprentice in a clear engaging narrative, explaining how the apprentice starts out as a young lad under the master’s tutelage and then becomes a master himself after some mild or intense drama with his master. The book then moves to the issue of Igbos and their reception in the Nigerian society in which they are one of the 3 major ethnic groups. For example it shows the surprise for the apprentice when his customers or clients who once adored him for meeting their needs later turn to express not-so-pleasant remarks on his person because of his ethnicity.The author proffers ways to see the Igbos and non-Igbos too; as first of all humans before any ethnic identity, and then the need to work towards unity and peace by all and sundry.
