The Africanness of an African is in his culture. The Igbo society is not an exception. The Igbo society had culture which aided them in their meaningful existence. Among this is their sense of communalism. Communal living fostered peace, unity, security and cordial co-existence among the Igbo of Nigeria. Unfortunately, this has been eroded by modernity and civilization. Change is inevitable. However, contemporary Igbo society should be cautious in neglecting their good cultural heritage; for culture is peoples identity.
