At first Okonkwo was dejected and bitter at having been denied his ambitions for seven years. However, he was shamed by Uchendu into focusing on the future. Although he is grateful to his motherland, he yearns for home. He becomes active in local politics in Mbanta, though he is disgusted by what he feels to be a womanly clan who is reluctant to take manly action. Ultimately, he remains mostly unchanged, still consumed with his goal to become manly and respected, though with an added hate towards the Christians and their supporting parties.
