As available in all accounts or history of people that have
no written records, efforts to secure facts of such people need recourse to
their customary narratives and legends. These accounts must be retrieved
through narratives by individuals considered to have clue knowledge of the
past.
Right from ancient of days, the belief in tribal, cultural,
institutional allegiance and all pervading feeling of brotherhood is dominant
in human affairs. The feeling originates communal allegiance which breeds
collective cultural identity that point to unity and development endeavors as economics, politics, religion
that sustains their determination to meaningful existence.
Globally, all communal setting are found on various conditions
or modalities. Some communities originate from efforts of a people of the
common ancestors. Others originate from efforts of various people from distant
places migrating to co-inhabit together as a common community. This is the
position of Ibele autonomous community in Njaba Local Government Area of Imo
State, Nigeria.
