دور المسرحية العربية النيجيرية في مراقبة السياسة المالية في نيجيريا The Role of Nigerian arabic drama in monitoring financial policy in Nigeria

Abstract

It is no doubt that, the level of economic meltdown-cum- fluctuations faced by Nigerians today, arose as a result of the poor implementation and control of effective financial policy. Succinctly, the strenuous and overarching efforts of Nigerian scholars in supplementing government’s efforts by providing lasting solutions to this economic menace through the production of literary works addressing socio-economic challenges in Nigeria are in vain. Therefore, this paper aimed to explore the role of Arabic drama in contributing to financial policy in Nigeria. The paper discussed the concept and rationale for Arabic drama in Arabic literature. Likewise, the genesis and development of Arabic drama in Nigeria were examined. Also, the concept of financial policy, its objectives and development were discussed. The role of financial policy in the development of economic activities in the country was also illustrated. Negative effects of non-implementation of good financial policy in the development of Nigeria economy was enumerated through the selected Nigeria Arabic drama texts understudy.
