SCOREBOARD: Its has been a tradition in igbo land and also in the culture of most people around the world that each coming generation enters into the duty of the passing one naturally, the son in the stead of his father, the daughter in that of her mother! I remember a time a child, even the youths will only listen to learn from the wisdom of the elders! Who are you to stand up to speak before our elders? What have you to say? Have you listened and learnt enough? When a man i s sired by one man and bred by many others!  Otoko! That" my father told me" is the greatest oath any man could take in those days.

The Palm tree is one our greatest asset in the form of economic trees in Okunano, of which we are blessed with many. But one important fact about the palm tree is that there's nothing useless about it! Everything and every part of this tree is very useful, from the palm-wine to the chaff or it's supposed wastes. Every thing is valued! Nature has its own language which is unique and associated with the okunano man and I quote: "There is nothing useless about the Okunano man, I stand to be corrected, but show me a useless man, and I will bet you: He is not from Okunano" Osagwede! My people, My home, My pride! Nature has spoken!

Responsible Tourism has become the focal point in tourism development in emerging economies in recent years.   This is due to the fact that much of the revenue from tourism is not getting to the people who own the tourism assets. When these assets are natural or a part of the people’s culture and traditions then it rests on the communities to protect them. A potential rests within our grasps… just a step from reality.
