The egwugwu, which are ancestral spirits in Igbo culture, settle disputes in the community by holding a court-like gathering where they listen to both sides of the case and provide a verdict. In the case of wife-beating, the egwugwu would likely condemn the behavior and impose a punishment on the culprit to deter similar actions in the future. They also aim to restore harmony and balance in the community.

In "Things Fall Apart," the case brought before the egwugwu, where Uzowulu claims that his wife was taken from him against her will, mirrors Okonkwo's struggle for control in his own life.
