It takes a very high premium in their linguistics, literature and all other aspects of their culture.

The paper adopts the use of oral interview and critical discourse and so discovers that Igbo proverbs are inseparable with Igbo man and his life activities. Further, the Igbo world view, reasoning, understanding and their philosophy are better understood through their proverbs.
