MAQOLA ANNOTATSIYASI

Literature is any work of imagination either a play, poem, novel in which language is used to tell a story. In it, there is a rich presentation of imagination and language. A literary work can never be so abstract without its relation to societal factor as it conveys experiences of human self-understanding. This is because it is a product of societal consciousness, as it constitutes a reflection on the phenomenon of life. Efforts at building societies below the Mediterranean are daily meeting with brick-walls due to the endemic and systemic problem of corruption. Corruption is gradually becoming an 'asset' to many individuals in our society today as it delves deep into the veins of many, due to so many circumstances and conditions. The circumstances are situation where individuals put themselves for selfish and egocentric interests. This issue of corruption goes beyond individual psychology and consciousness; there is a social dimension to it, which needs to be carefully examined and considered. This intent would be done by interrogating No Longer at Ease towards examining the growing nature of corruption in African society. Hence, this paper shall examine Achebe's No Longer at Ease in relation to the endemic nature of corruption in Nigeria nay Africa. Therefore, the thrust of this piece, would be to argue that for social order and development to be realisable, the recourse to imbibing and building values, instead of vices like corruption, is significant and of utmost importance.
