This study analyses how the philosophy of divorce in Ichen (Nigeria) is compatible with the Christian viewpoint.
The issue of divorce is a long seated problem in human history particularly in Nigerian context where the Church is facing numerous issues of divorce. Also, on the interpretation and application of “divorce”, scholars still find it difficult to agree on the supremacy of the scripture (Phuong, Divorce/Africa). Most of the African tribes frown at divorce in which it used to be a taboo, and it is still consider a serious insult in some tribes in Africa. In the real sense divorce is becoming a new normal in some Africa communities today.
