Negative Impact
• Commercialization of Culture- Cultural way of life style has become a product, rather than the pride of the people.
• Undermining of Value System- Foreign products and cultures have flooded the market, these have affected the identity of the Igbos, what they want and what they respect.
• Over Reliance on Digitalization- People are becoming lazy to read and write books, especially the younger generation.

Conclusion
Digitalization has given African culture a platform to globalize and preserve their culture. However, misinterpretation and culture conflict of the Igbos are not ruled out, as Professor Chinua Achebe’ s ‘Things Fall Apart’ presented it.
