Chapter 15 Why is it said that "Ibuza men gloried in the unfaithfulness of women?" Note that Nnu Ego is preparing her daughters to follow in her footsteps by giving them an inferior education and training them in housework. What other actions and speeches of hers in this chapter show how she discriminates between the girls and the boys? Why does Oshia prefer his father to his mother? Given what you know of Nnu Ego, how realistic do you think her prayer on pp. 186-187 is? Chapter 16 What is Nnu Ego's attitude toward her ninth baby? The emphasis on the value of fertility should go far toward explaining why Africa has the highest birthrate of any place in the world. Ch 15 opens with the statement of everyone in Lagos knowing of Adaku’s becoming a prostitute. The men of Ibuza were amused at this fact, thinking that women are by default unfaithful and not to be trusted.
