Okonkwo's Suicide

For the first time in years Okonkwo was happy. But he was angry when the clan returned false on him and then became happy again with the destruction of the church.The District Commissioner sent his messengers to gather six leader and of course Okonkwo was one of them. The six of them had destroyed the church that's why they had to go see the District Commissioner, which he decided that they have to pay a fine of two hundred cowries. After the men said yes they got their heads shaved and were handcuffed. Okonkwo got mad and admittted that he was right when he said they should have killed the white man. Okonkwo's hosehold was very quiet and Ezinma had broken her 28 day visit to the family when she hear that her father was imprisoned and was going to be hanged. Okonkwo and the prisoners paid their fine and was set free, they were no longer worthy men. They went after Okonkwo and found him hanging from a tree dead. He committed Suicide.
