Ndukwo the Only One

"NDUKWO THE ONLY ONE " recounts the life story of an Igbo boy whose manner of birth is strange, and said to be evil. He is the only child of a reverend pastor. Being the only child means being evil according to the Igbo people. The boy's name is Ndukwo. Before he is born, his mother has buried more than one newborn baby. His people say that he is a 'comeback' child, that he is the incarnate of the dead newborns. How the people arrive at the fact is one interesting concept of this story, known as 'Ogbanje'. So he is seen by other people as evil. In the end, Ndukwo struggles with his people and he is greatly affected by the beliefs that his people hold of him. It is meaningfully interesting to find out how that boy ends his life in the custody of a juvenile court.
