| dc.description.abstract | The paper probed into the pedagogic significance of title-taking, an instrument of governance among the Yoruba speaking people of Nigeria. Adopting both historical and sociological approaches, it highlighted some of the philosophies and the cultural transmission mechanism embedded in the system. The paper also emphasized the influence of Yoruba chieftaincy culture on Christianity and how through the making of Christian chiefs; the Church inculcates moral values and traditional ethics that help in securing and sustaining social order and cohesion within Church and Community. The paper viewed the whole gamut of chieftaincy in Yoruba land as a “teachable moment” vis-a-vis value education in the Nigerian school system and recommended further symbiotic relationship between African cultural practices and Christianity towards sustainable development. | |
