Ikemefuna had a significant influence on Nwoye in Chinua Achebe's novel "Things Fall Apart." Ikemefuna served as an older brother figure to Nwoye, providing him with guidance and companionship. He introduced Nwoye to new ideas and perspectives, ultimately leading to Nwoye questioning his father's strict beliefs and traditions. Ikemefuna's presence catalyzed Nwoye's internal conflict and eventual rejection of his father's values.
Subjective answer: The thing that upsets Okonkwo the most internally, is the fact that Nwoye is too much like his grandfather Unoka. The one action that gets Okonkwo the most upset externally is finding out that Nwoye has been hanging around the Christians, at which point Okonkwo confronts Nwoye and nearly chokes him to death.
Yes, he is a tragic hero, because like many other tragic heroes he has a flaw and because of that flaw or weakness he suffered tragedies and then a tragic death. His main flaw stems from the fear of being like his father: a lazy, social, drunkard debtor. He cannot display his emotions because he doesn't want to look weak or effeminate, and when he does show any emotion, it is an uncontrollable rage.
Yes, Nwoye is a boy in Things Fall Apart.

Nwoye and his father never had a very good relationship, so that could have had an effect on Nwoye's childhood. It's never completely specified in the book.
Western culture had a significant impact on Nwoye in "Things Fall Apart" by Chinua Achebe, as he became disillusioned with his father's traditions and converted to Christianity. The arrival of missionaries introduced Nwoye to a new set of beliefs and values that resonated with him, leading to his rejection of his Igbo heritage and eventual estrangement from his family and community. The influence of Western culture on Nwoye ultimately resulted in his transformation and redefinition of his identity.

Okonkwo's children in Chinua Achebe's novel "Things Fall Apart" are Nwoye, Ezinma, and Ikemefuna.
In Chinua Achebe's "Things Fall Apart," Nwoye's conversion to Christianity represents a profound personal and cultural shift. Feeling alienated from his father's traditional values and the expectations of masculinity within the Igbo society, Nwoye finds solace in the new faith, which offers him acceptance and a sense of belonging. His conversion creates a rift between him and Okonkwo, leading to a deep sense of betrayal for his father, who views Nwoye's actions as a rejection of their heritage and family. Ultimately, Nwoye's choice symbolizes the broader cultural clash and transformation occurring in colonial Nigeria.
Nwoye is drawn to the Christian songs which reminds him of the same soul as his mother's stories. Further, he has been repulsed by his father's culture which ordered Ikemefuna's death and allowed Okonkwo to kill Ikemefuna.
