Akunna is a clan leader of Umuofia who argues religion with Mr. Brown. In doing so, the two men learn from each other. Akunna develops parallels between his religion and the Christian religion, formulating an articulate defense of the Igbo's religion. He influences Mr. Brown to not attack their religion directly, but instead to appeal to the two religions' common aspects when converting.
