Abstract

Social unrest in Nigeria is aching and disturbing, such that the future of the nation and the youths raises unanswerable questions. Efforts to curb the menace most times yielded little positive results. To build a dynamic nation is to mold the coming generations and to prepare these leaders of tomorrow for the challenges of abolishing the endangering practices in our society. The introduction of music education into our first-generation schools has positively influenced the moral behavior of schoolboys and girls, who now hold a significant percentage of leadership positions in this noble country. Over time, changes of both positive and negative effects have brought Nigerian development into a precarious situation, and citizens experience predominantly adverse incidents in the country.
