About

The Nri Kingdom in Anambra State represents one of the oldest models of non-violent governance in Africa. The Eze Nri resolved conflicts through ritual cleansing rather than warfare, embodying the Igbo philosophical principle that moral authority supersedes coercive power. The Nri system influenced governance across Igboland and represents a profound African contribution to political thought.
