Abstract

This study investigated secondary students’ writing anxiety, attitude to and knowledge of Yoruba orthography as indicators of their achievement in Yoruba essay writing in the Ibadan metropolis, Oyo State. Three research questions were answered using the survey research design of the correlational type. Four hundred and twenty (420) Senior Secondary II students taking Yoruba in 12 purposively selected secondary schools in Ibadan metropolis responded to the four self-constructed instruments used. Data collected were analysed using the Pearson’s Product Moment of Correlation (PPMC) and Multiple Regression Analysis at 0.05 level of significance. Writing anxiety (r = .125; p<0.05) and knowledge of Yoruba orthography (r = .147; p<0.05) had significant positive relationship with students’ achievement in Yoruba essay writing while attitude to Yoruba orthography (r = .084; p>0.05) had positive but non-significant relationship with students’ achievement in Yoruba essay writing. The joint contribution of the three independent variables was significant (F (3; 407) = 4.848; Adj. R2 = .027; p = .003<0.05). However, the knowledge of Yoruba orthography (Beta = .136; p=.006<0.05) is the factor that had significant relative contribution to students’ achievement in Yoruba essay writing. Therefore, students should endeavor to develop interest in and increase their knowledge of Yoruba orthography.

Abstract

Yorùbá films have developed over time owing to westernisation and technological advancements. Due to this development, contemporary Yorùbá films are easily accessible through the internet and social media. However, the cultural contents of these films remain questionable due to influences from the western world. Studies have identified the portrayal of Yorùbá culture, history and folklores in Yorùbá films with less emphasis on the way contemporary Yorùbá films have hybridised various cultures and possibly marginalised the Yorùbá culture as a result of westernisation and civilisation. The qualitative research approach, using document analysis was therefore adopted to examine cultural hybridity and marginality in contemporary Yoruba films. Four purposively selected films (Jagunjagun, Anikulapo, Agesinkole, and Elesin-Oba) constituted the texts analysed thematically and interpreted using the theories of Cultural Hybridity and Cultural Marginality. Findings revealed that the selected films portray the hybridisation of Yorùbá culture with other cultures, while marginalising the Yorùbá culture in many cases. The paper argued that the film-makers’ quest for global acceptance and profit making are responsible for these hybridisation and marginalisation. Therefore, economy is at the centre of movie-making in Nigeria, irrespective of the cultural interest of both the film-makers and the audience.
