Okonkwo was so dexterous that Amalinze could not get a firm hold onto him.
Water is what makes clay slippery. Too much water and it is a goo called "slip" , too little water and it is a dry powder. Clay is formed from particles that are flat hexagonal sheets less than 2 microns in size. The microscopic clay particles slide past each other easily when wet and make the slippery feel.

One example of a slippery compound is soap. Soap molecules have a hydrophilic (water-attracting) head and a hydrophobic (water-repelling) tail, allowing them to reduce the surface tension of water and create a slippery sensation when mixed with water.
if your saying an animal that is slippery then its a water strider.{also know as The Jusus Bug}
Figuratively it means he is in a lot of debt. The up to his ears is an allusion to water to suggest he is about to drown in the debt.
