- W3117274860 abstract "Faced with an unprecedented and challenging socio-political situation at home (Nigeria), the Igbo struggle for survival and relevance throughout the world has taken various forms in the last five decades. Industry, commerce, education, invention/innovation have been undertaken together with an unprecedented spate of emigration, which has seen the Igbo everywhere in the world. The Igbo, wherever they may be found, stop at nothing, unleashing their potentials in a virile, resilient and competitive spirit which they have come to be known for through time. Even in diaspora, the Igbo understand their Igbo fellows as the stiffest competitors and strive to outdo each other. As a result, the Igbo have been understood by others as selfish and even among the Igbo, there is the unfortunate misconstrue of such as hate, selfishness and individualism. Inversely, these socio-ethical images of the Igbo are antithetical to the content of traditional Igbo morality which is characterized by conviviality and community. This research builds on the nature, being, becoming and existence of the Igbo individual. Evidently, the individual among the Igbo is at the heart of Igbo existence; the attainment of which is a lifetime struggle. The Igbo individual like the Igbo universe is fluid; its reach and positive impact among the Igbo speak its quality and relevance. In its fluidity, it is becoming; in its reach, it spans beyond earthly existence; in its impact, it is community-oriented. This ontology will give insight into the Igbo socio-economic engagements wherever they may be found. The research employs the tools of Igbo cultural institutions, rites of passage and entelechy of human struggles to offer a robust perspective for understanding the selfless and altruistic nature of the Igbo individual which is the ultimate attainment of that individual, viewed in this work through the prism of <i>Onweonye</i>. The research employs the technique of documentary hermeneutics and analysis combined with in-depth library research method of inquiry into the complex composition of the individual in Igbo ethnography and ontology." @default.
