Question 2

Describe any five social activities of the Igbo in pre-colonial times.

Observation

This was a straightforward but very unpopular question as only a few candidates attempted it. Those who attempted it concentrated their answers on the political structure of Igboland instead of discussing the following points.

  • consultation of oracles;
  • cerebration of new yam festivals;
  • use of masquerades for maintenance of social order and entertainment;
  • existence of secret societies, etc

The overall performance in this question was poor.
