Okonkwo has hanged himself.
The District Commissioner treats Okonkwo's suicide with amusement and finds it an interesting curiosity which would be worth a paragraph in the book he is writing. He is relieved that he does not have to deal with arresting and hanging Okonkwo, as Okonkwo has already done it for him.
Okonkwo goes to live in Mbanta, his motherland.
Nothing really. Okonkwo's dangling body is seen by the District Commissioner and his men.
Ikemefuna is the boy that is sent to live with Okonkwo. Eventually the boy becomes much like Okonkwo's own son, and Ikemefuna even calls Okonkwo father.
The district commissioner might describe Okonkwo as a respected leader of the Igbo community, known for his wealth, strength, and strict adherence to traditional customs. He may also mention Okonkwo's tragic downfall and eventual suicide as a result of colonial influence and cultural clashes. Ultimately, the commissioner would likely view Okonkwo as a complex figure emblematic of the changing times in Igbo society.
Ikemefuna lived with Okonkwo for three years before the Oracle decided his fate.
The villagers request help to cut down Okonkwo's body and bury him.
Okonkwo and five of the leaders were imprisoned by the District Commissioner. The village of Umuofia was fined 200 bags of cowries.
Okonkwo has committed an offense against the earth by hanging himself, and thus cannot be touched by the villagers.It is an abomination against the Earth for a man to take his own life, and so his body becomes evil. It is against Umuofian customs to touch a man who commited suicide, and so only strangers can bury Okonkwo.
"Okonkwo was a man." "Did you see that man, Okonkwo?" "You are my son. Okonkwo, I am your father!"
