SUMMARY
From the second half of the 19th century, Christian missionaries featured prominently in the series of events that led to the development of Akwukwu-Igbo community, and were able to bring about certain political, economic and technological changes in the region. Their activities helped to break down ethnic prejudices and to bring their converts in loyalty transcending ethnic ties. Patriotic Akwukwu-Igbo came to believe that by practicing Christianity they were paving the way for the creation of the Akwukwu-Igbo nation. The dreams of the Akwukwu -igbo people's was one in which Christianity would flourish, inter-tribal wars would cease and the industrial, technological and intellectual revolutions which had occurred in Europe would repeat themselves in Igbo land of which Akwukwu-Igbo is part.
