Okonkwo's Bestfriend

The rational one

Thinks before he acts

He usually advises okonkwo on what to do and what is right, even though he barely listens

"“And let me tell you one thing, my friend. If I were you I would have stayed home. What you have done will not please the Earth. It is the kind of action for which the goddess wipes out whole families.” (8.26)

This quote shows that Obierka is the thinker and is now telling Okonkwo the possible consequences

You drove him to kill himself; and now he will be buried like a dog…” He could not say any more. His voice trembled and choked his words.
