Résumé
Cet article présente les propriétés du système traditionnel et décimal de numérotation igbo et les principes qui régissent leur formulation. Il examine les utilisations culturelles et religieuses du système de numérotation traditionnel igbo et leurs implications sur le développement de programmes d'enseignement pas seulement en mathématiques et en ethno-mathématiques dans le supérieur, mais aussi en arithmétique pour le primaire et le secondaire.
A person who does not know where he/she is coming from most probably does not know where he/she is going to. Nti bu nka.
A na esi no ulo mma ma napuwa ama. A man is least in what he knows not. I hold him the least who knows the least.
