Revision: Abosede Ademilua-Afolayan' Drama Text: Once Upon An Elephant

  1. Discuss the role of Serubawon in Ajanaku’s rise to power. Serubawon, a seer and medicine man, plays an instrumental role in Ajanaku’s rise to power, using his knowledge of rituals and his influence over people to manipulate the political landscape. His betrayal of King Akinjiobi marks the beginning of the tyrannical reign of Ajanaku. Serubawon’s actions are motivated by his secret desire to place his illegitimate son, Ajanaku, on the throne. He begins by poisoning King Akinjiobi, making it appear as if the king died of natural causes, thus creating a power vacuum. This pivotal act sets the stage for Ajanaku to seize the throne. As the king dies, Serubawon ensures that Ajanaku is seen as the rightful heir, despite his illegitimacy, by using his influence to manipulate the royal succession process.

''The Breast of the Sea'' by Syl Cheney-Coker-Revision

   '' The Breast of the Sea''   Tonight I am full of the breast of the sea, Moist as a virgin in the dews of my youth. Here I sit by the bay of my bleeding knees, And my heart's an altar stone of broken dreams.   In the pools of your face, I look for light, But the tides are tired of bringing ships to your shore, And my youth is a cigarette stubbed out too soon. Even the wind that caressed you has lost its song.   There is something dying out at sea tonight: Perhaps the soul of a sailor lost to the waves, Or the tears of fishermen spilling nets empty, While the sea whispers secrets to itself in pain.   Here I sit, trying to patch my heart with memories, Hoping the breast of the sea will suckle me whole. But tonight, the waves are mournful and wild, And even the moon refuses to rise in your name.   Explain how the poet uses the sea as a metaphor in the poem. How does the poet use imagery to...

Dramatic Technique in Once Upon An Elephant: Bosede Ademilue-Afolayan

  Once Upon an Elephant by Bosede Ademilua-Afolayan critiques autocracy and the self-perpetuating tendencies of African leaders post-colonialism. Using Yoruba oral traditions and folktales, the playwright examines dictatorship, corruption, and moral decay in African governance. The play metaphorically draws from Adeboye Babalola's Salute to the Elephant and parallels works like Wole Soyinka's Kongi’s Harvest and King Baabu . It highlights the misuse of power through King Ajanaku, who, despite not being the rightful heir, schemes dishonestly to ascend the throne. He engages in rites that exploit virgins in a bid for immortality, leading to his eventual downfall, orchestrated by Iya Agba, a fearless elder who stands for justice. Through poetry, drama, and African traditional theatrical elements, Ademilua-Afolayan crafts a 14-act, 105-page story blending suspense and irony. The play is a stark reminder of the consequences of unchecked power, underscoring the need for ethica...
