- W2577686485 abstract "The fundamental root of the problem is that Nigerian cultureshave not influenced one another . This is primarily because neither thecolonial administrators, who brought these different ethnic groupstogether for easy administration during the colonial era, nor theNigerian politicians after them did anything positive to bring aboutmutual understanding among the different ethnic groups. Graf maintainsthat the colonial rulers, and Nigerian politicians after them, werenever able to resolve the country's acute ethnic and cultural fragmentation. Today, cultural pluralism is a problem in Nigeria because the different ethnic groups have not been taught to know and respect one another's culture. These ethnic groups can neither appreciate nor love one another's culture which they know nothing about. Consequently, each group clings to its cultural values, beliefs and customs at the expense of national unity.The author claims that cultural pluralism could be an asset toNigeria if there were a mutual interchange of cultural values which would bring a bout mutual understanding. The different cultures in Nigeria have their own uniqueness and beauty. The problem is, that hitherto nothing has been done to enjoin each ethnic group to contribute its cultural gifts to the enhancement and enrichment of Nigerian society.As to what degree a pluralistic society is desirable is a controversial issue among social scientists. Those who are against pluralisticsocieties advocate li the assimilation of ethnic minorities into thedominant culture of the society to attain cultural uniformity within thesociety, and thus eliminate the possibility Of internal conflict between ethnic groups. On the other hand, the proponents of pluralistic societies argue in favor of thecultural riches that accrue to pluralistic societies from accepting and practicing the organic culturalintegration, one which allows for mutual interchange of cultural goodson the basis of mutual respect, for individual distinct values and inthe conditions of free and harmonious cooperation." @default.
