Obi is the word used to describe the central building in an Igbo homestead, one used most commonly as a place for the reception of guests. As such, it can also be looked at symbolically as a metaphor for the most important part, or ''heart'', of any given place. In fact, due to this, it is otherwise almost exclusively taken to be an aristocratic title amongst the tribe, meaning either elder in the first instance or chief in the second. ==List of Obis who reign as traditional kings== * Obi of Ogwashi-Uku * * , the Obi of Ogwashi-Uku is Eze Chukwuka Okonjo. *Obi of Onitsha * * , the Obi of Onitsha is Igwe Nnaemeka Achebe. * Obi of Neni * * As of 2004, the Obi of Neni is Eze Ngobidy Nwora Emannuel Sandi.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Obi (ruler)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
