Indigenous Moral Education in Nigeria.
Overview & Synopsis
Nigerian children experience moral education from the family, neighborhood adults, peer groups, and the community through direct instruction, observation, and unconscious absorption of moral lessons. They learn that gods and ancestors are sources of human morality. The introduction of Western religion and education encourages the young to pursue autonomous morality. (Author/RM)
