This powerful Nigerian Igbo folktale from the ancient village of Umuofia tells the heartbreaking story of Chukwudi, a man cursed with failure, and Adaeze, the wife whose love moves the spirits. When misfortune follows Chukwudi everywhere—failed farms, dead goats, spoiled business, poverty, and shame—his home breaks apart. A second wife, Ngozi, enters with pride and promises, while his daughter Chigozie suffers, beaten and forgotten.
Desperate to save her family, Adaeze secretly goes to a powerful dibia in the forbidden forest and offers her own life as sacrifice, on one condition: Chukwudi must not leave the village for three years. After her quiet death, wealth pours into Chukwudi’s hands, and Chigozie rises to study in London. But blinded by greed and forgetfulness, he breaks the sacred vow, travels with Ngozi, and the blessings turn to dust. Wealth disappears, his son dies, Ngozi becomes a beggar, and Chukwudi wanders like a madman, repeating his lament. This animated Igbo story teaches that a mother’s love can touch the gods, but greed and broken promises bring the heaviest curses. The ancestors watch, and Ala the earth mother never forgets. Perfect for African folktale lovers, Igbo culture fans, parents, teachers, and anyone who wants deep moral stories for children and adults.
