- W2187051343 abstract "Many African communities still appreciate the role of oral literature in establishing and maintaining social order. Chief among the genres of oral literature is the proverbs. Achebe in “Things Fall Apart says that ‘proverbs are the palm-oil with which words are eaten’ (Achebe, 1958:4). The Gikuyu, an ethnic group that lives in the Central Region of Kenya was among the heaviest casualties of the post election violence that was experienced in the country in 2007/8. To prevent recurrence of such tribal chaos several strategies and efforts such as the formation of Truth, Justice and Reconciliation Commission, introduction of peace education in schools and colleges and peace negotiations among warring communities have been put in place. However, no effort has been made to find out the role of oral literature, especially Gikuyu proverbs as a tool for peace building among the Gikuyu. This is what motivated this study. The aims were to identify the proverbs, explain their meaning and their context of application. The research employed the Woolman’s Active Peace theory as the theoretical framework. The research was obtained from 50 old men and women who were judgementally sampled. Collection of data was done using of an interview schedule. The data was later analysed in the light of the theoretical framework of the study" @default.
