On an ethnic level, i.e. in Kenya, there exists a Kikuyu clan. In this Kikuyu clan there are various smaller cultures and a general culture that the other tribes of the same clan can adhere to as their ancestors lived by the 'big' culture. One shouldn't imply that the smaller cultures are necessarily less pure

Okonkwo held the old ways and that of his clan to be more dear. The new political power undermined the structure and power of the old ways, elevating osu to citizens, and rewarding people for unjust behaviour and corruption. It was highly individualistic, and showed no respect for the clan. The new religion made no sense, and spoke of madness such as a man being born without a father. To Okonkwo, such orders were honourless and mad. Okonkwo was more accustomed to direct physical confrontation than those of the spirit or heart. As he valued himself by his rank in ozo society, working against that would undermine his own values.

In "Things Fall Apart," Okonkwo's clan refers to him as "Roaring Flame." This name reflects his fiery and passionate nature, as well as his reputation for being a strong and influential member of the community.
Okonkwo was exiled seven years for accidentally killing a fellow clan member. For those seven years he moved through his daily practices with no real purpose. He basically sat around waiting to return to his father's land. He felt useless in his mothers clan; he did not try to earn a place of respect among them. Most of the time he was just feeling sorry for himself. He made plans what he would do when he arrived back, but he did nothing of value where he was.
