The topic, the Socio-Economic and Cultural Impact of the Presbyterian
Mission in North Eastern Igboland 1880-2006 has not been fully
investigated and documented. Some missionaries that pioneered mission
activities have gone to rest with the Lord while those alive went home
with the written records of their work, some of which are found in their
diaries, while others are published in their mission magazines and most of
the documents have been lost. The problem has been made worse by the
ravages of Nigerian civil war that destroyed whatever records and
documents the missionaries left which the Church in thr zone might have
kept before the war.
