What message did ogbuefi bring to okonkwo?
Uchendu calls Okonkwo in for a meeting with him, and uses his authority to subtlely shame Okonkwo for his behaviour. Firstly, he explains the meaning of the motherland, and makes it seem as if going back to the Motherland is not a punishment as much as it is a respite from the evils that plague man. He tells Okonkwo that other men have had greater suffering and that his is not as bad as he makes it out to be. Further, he tells Okonkwo that he must survive to go home so that he does not trap his family in the mother land. He plays on Okonkwo's manly pride to ensure that Okonkwo will behave properly and with spirit.
How is Okonkwo's exile an enriching experience?
Okonkwo's exile is an enriching experience because it teaches Okonkwo the true value of extended family, and also why women are valued. In general, Okonkwo is a self-made man, who values the strength of man, but he is ignorant to many of the strengths and values of women. The setback teaches Okonkwo some humility and how to deal with failure which is seemingly caused by his own will. Further, Okonkwo's exile allows the huge gathering of Okonwko's extended family which enables Uchendu to show briefly the affect of people gathering to form one unit and one voice, something that is lost with the newer generation. Okonkwo's immediate family is enriched with the experience of going to another village and learning their ways.

Why does Okonkwo hang himself?
Okonkwo hangs himself because he is unable to adapt to the new society. He knows he will be imprisoned, (and probably executed) for killing the messenger. He is also a proud man, so prefers to take action into his own hands. By killing himself, he controls his own destiny instead of letting the Europeans control him. He also knows that his clan will not fight the Europeans. Some have argued that he hangs himself because he is ashamed of his village, but if that were so, than he probably would not have killed himself, which is a sacrilege to his village.

Ikemefuna is a boy who is taken as part of compensation for another village's tribesmen killing a woman of Umuofia in their market.
