Nwanyeruwa

(Early 20th century)

Instigator (and Peacekeeper) of the Igbo Women's War

Instigated a massive “women’s war” against British taxation, the effect of which was one part protest movement, one part comedy roast, and one part block party.

Cut Content: Okugo’s crimes

The women had numerous other complaints about Okugo — he’d been an unrepentant turd monkey for decades. The laundry list of his crimes included levying arbitrary taxes, embezzling money, and “gathering materials to make bad juju.”
