The study examined various ways in which patriarchy and female exploitation are meted on women in Igbo novel. This research adopted the theory of feminism, which describes, interprets and re-interprets women’s experience as depicted in the Igbo novel, and male interpretation in literature. At the end of the study, it was observed that in Igbo nation, feminism and traditionalism stand in opposition. Women are assumed to be relegated to the background and no prominent role is accorded them; despite their roles in the community through some traditional institutions like Ụmụada (daughters of a clan) and Iyomdi (wives of a clan). The paper concluded that patriarchy can lead to poor development of Africa and Igbo nation. It can also affect women psychologically and limit their potentials. The study recommended that women should be given equal right as men in Igboland. Since culture is dynamic; certain traditions against women can be redress. ASS.PROF. EBELE E.

I seek to understand, evaluate and criticize the interpersonal relationships and sexual behaviours among the homogeneity and heteronormativity of cultures in a social, cultural and philosophical perspective. This paper basically, is an analizandum on what actually determines the morality of true sexual anatomy of sex escaped amongst the male and female gender and transgender, man and woman etc. Thus, under these trajectories there are many point of references that requires legitimations among them in this 21st century world order. The issues of gender identification, sexual orientation, consent of sexual relations and procreation are all necessary problems of cultural legitimations that give rise to the phenomena of sexual ethics. How do we come to terms in legalizing sex, in determining the best policy of sexual anatomy among all cultures in human society? Sexuality is part of the distinctiveness of humanity and people sometimes reflect on it as divinely meant only for procreation, some think of it as part of their animal nature, as in some ways, of course, it is. Sometimes as well, it can erupt in a violence that defines human rationality. So, it on this consideration, that my findings, therefore, define the thesis that there is equitable sociopolitical culture that determines the morality of true sexual anatomy in the society.

In Nigeria; for example, where the majority of the people still speak and practice the numerous diverse linguistic communities, noting could be more beneficial if the various initiative for development in areas such economy, technology, health, environment, empowerment etc. are made available to the indigene in their native languages. Communication with these languages, will enhance the lives of the people, it will also create the activity in those languages, thus ensuring their viability and eventual preservation. This paper examines the possible ways in which in indigenous languages could play a positive role in ensuring sustainable development on nation economy in global market.

Many discussions of the enforcement of morality by the law taken as illustrative, the problem underlying the regulation of various types of sexual behaviour by the criminal law and not just only by the religious cum the traditional institutions. The enforcement of morals on the reality of sex escapades by BaltasarEngonga has provoked important philosophical responses from many people across the globe. Many have seem it as immoral, which appears to take for granted the immorality of the sexual behaviour in question. The purpose of this paper, at least, is whether such things as adultery ought to be made illegal even if it is immoral in the sight of some people. This paper is purely based on the qualitative analytical research from books of recent philosophical literature and some current issues by the social media bloggers. The finding of this work therefore support the thesis that there are moral grounds of sex and sexism in the society, but “we do not find it easy to apply general moral principles to our sexual lives” (Ruddick, ed. By Wasserstrom in Today’s Moral Problems, 1979:190). We therefore, came to the conclusion, that there may be all sorts of intimate, interpersonal relationships which will resemble but not be identical with the typical marriage relationship presupposed by the traditional sexual morality. There may be a number of distinguishable sexual and loving arrangements which can all legitimately claim to be called marriages.
