Chief Nnokwute, a custodian of Igbo culture, tradition and social anthropology, also emphasized the need for Igbo parents in diaspora to make Igbo language a compulsory subject in their homes and at schools, while guiding their children to toe the path of their forefathers who upheld the African culture and tradition despite being colonized by the Westerners through civilization.
