This comes from the novel “Things Fall Apart” written by Chinua Achebe. It is the story of the strong and proud Okonkwo, who could not deal with the changes the white missionaries brought to his village. Ikemefuna was ill-fated because he was destined to be killed by Okonkwo and Unoka was ill-fated because he was despised by his son Okonkwo and died in debt.
