Abstract:
Many traditional dances have witnessed downturn in patronage to occasion academic debates geared towards reviving interest in indigenous performances and live theatres in Nigeria. It is within this context that this article closely look at content issues in Nigerian indigenous dance from a diachronic perspective and observed that the seeming dwindling patronage for certain Nigerian indigenous dances is as a result of the inability of indigenous dance creators and performers to package indigenous dance products to reflect popular tastes in contemporary times. Also, it is observed that content i

Abstract:
This paper examines the duality of dance as both art and science. It argues on the premise that only the manifestations of dance as an art form has been explored whilst its scientific manifestations have been arguably ignored. It avers that duality is seen in the processes involved in dance choreography. In doing this, it maintains that dance as an art often manifests in the intuition and creativity involved during the creation of dances while dance as science manifests itself during the execution of movements. It argues that the traditional practitioners of dance in Nigeria and Africa are gen

Abstract:
In Nigeria, the deliberate intimidation and exploitation of the common man by the ruling class, for political aims, has reached endemic proportions. These strategic intimidations come in diverse forms, and clearly qualify as acts of terrorism. In the Yoruba worldview, ‘Arodan’ is a cautionary concept which is employed by the elders to curb the excesses of troublesome children. However, it has evolved to be a two-edged sword which could either be used for both corrective andcurative aims, or manipulated for punitive and evil purposes.

The teaching approaches provide for managing dance establishments as well as the art and act of dancing.

God’s purposeful design is for humanity to flourish. Over the years, one of the greatest problems confronting Nigeria, and indeed Africa, has been poverty. Poverty has denied many the right to enjoy the life God designed for them. It has brought untold misery to many people. Many have been enslaved even in their ancestral lands by the rich because of poverty induced by injustice. Poverty, especially in Nigeria, is not due to lack of human and natural resources but to sheer greed leading to unequal distribution of wealth, imbalanced opportunities for empowerment and corruption.
