Mark Sigu had devoted love of his wife and the affection of all his children.He did things that would never have crossed the mind of a full blooded African ma.He knew she was over- worked both at home and in school and in spite the house - help they had ,he throw a helping hand round the house-especially in taking the kids off the hands of his wife.
There is protection offered to family by the Sigus. When he realizes that promiscuity would ruin his marriage he so forcefully dumps the girl and asks for leave to go and bring his family back from Alour. He tells his mother off when the latter feels he is over protective to the wife.
