Don C. Ohadike, born in Nigeria in 1941, was one of the foremost scholars of Igbo history. Ohadike's work emphasized the importance of his inherited culture, which he demonstrated in part through his continued and passionate interest in rescuing oppressed voices of African peasants and other silenced groups. Ohadike was also an African patriot and a nationalist crusader. His work's core centered around safeguarding African identity in a changing world of cultural globalism. Ohadike died on 28 August, 2005.[1] [2]

Education

Ohadike earned his B.A. in history and archaeology from University of Nigeria in 1975. In 1977, he earned a M.A. in history from the University of Birmingham, England. He would later earn his doctorate in history from the University of Jos in 1984.[3]

Career

In 1977, Ohadike's career took off with his appointment as a lecturer at the School of Humanities, University of Port Harcourt. After completing his doctorate, Ohadike taught history and served as department chair at the University of Jos. He returned to the United States in 1987 with appointments as a Visiting Scholar at Northwestern University and Stanford University. He then joined the Cornell University faculty in 1989. In 2001, he began a five-year appointment as the new director of the Cornell Africana Studies and Research Center.[4]
