According to De Vaan, it probably has the same etymology as agitur (“it is done”) (passive third-person singular of agō (“to do, act”)), from Proto-Italic *agetor: if so, the change of *a- to i- in the first syllable is an example of pre-Latin vowel reduction (weakening) in an unstressed non-initial syllable, caused by the conjunction habitually being placed after other words, e.g.…
Igitur id quod agitur, †hic† primum praeverti decet.
Eho dīc mihi, quis illic igitur est?
Igitur ne maiorem iniuriam in secreto frater acciperet, consurrexi ad officium nuptiale.
