In an attempt to have security, order, progress and harmony in
"
human society, citizens must adopt moral principles that should regulafe
their action. Invariably, morality occupies a unique place in social
development or nation building. In Nigeria, neo-colonialism, poverty,
corruption, among other factors, constitute factors of underdevelopment
and the application of moral values, particularly African Traditional moral
values has a solution to this problem. Morality helps one to know the
good life, which promotes the common good and enhances the welfare
of the entire populace. When the moral order is upset, other areas of
human life are equally affected.
