Research Interest
Dr. Kenneth Igbo Nwokike’s research interests lie at the intersection of history, international relations, and African studies. His work focuses on exploring the socio-political dynamics within African societies, particularly the role of traditional institutions in governance and conflict resolution. He examines the historical underpinnings of African political structures, with a special interest in the Igbo traditional system and its contemporary implications. Additionally, Dr. Nwokike explores the intersection of global security and African geopolitics, with a particular focus on the challenges posed by terrorism and the limitations of international legal frameworks in addressing such threats. His interdisciplinary approach bridges the gap between historical scholarship and modern international relations, contributing to a deeper understanding of how cultural heritage and global politics shape societal development. His work seeks to promote the integration of traditional knowledge in contemporary political and security discourses across Africa.

This work is carried out to fill the epistemic and hermeneutical gap within Igbo socio-metaphysical space. Notable works have been done in Igbo studies, however, the place of the Dibia in Igbo ontology has been neglected, hence the current work. The researchers combined library and fieldwork approaches in executing this work. In the end, the research notes that modern Igbo people have neglected the place and activities of the Dibia. Noting that the Dibia being the active presence of the God[s] among the people is an indispensable persona in the... Igbo existence. Therefore, the current crisis of relevance the people are experiencing is a result of this neglect. The works, therefore, conclude that if the Dibia and her activities are brought back to the centre stage of Igbo existence, the socio-political and economic crises of the moment would have been a history.
