In "The Headstrong Historian," Anikwenwa is Obierika and Nwamgba's son. He learns English at a Catholic mission school and though he hates it at first, he comes to fully embrace British culture and the teachings of the Catholic church. He then refuses to eat Nwamgba's food or attend tribal rituals because they're not Christian.
