dc.description.abstractThe 21st Century has witnessed tremendous developments in various forms. Old values have been displaced b new ones in many communities as a direct result of colonization and subsequent globalisation. The Yoruba race in the southwestern Nigeria and those in the diasporas have not been eft out in the self-marginalisation resulting from trying to ape everything that comes with the tag of westernization and globalisation. This paper observes that the unquantifiable positive values and virtues that have disappeared from among the Yorubas used to be inculcated through Yoruba-medium education system but the English-medium western education system has significantly contributed to their erosion, and with grave consequences, too. It then advocates a perfect blend of the components of the indigenous education with those of the western. This will require the maintenance of the indigenous language since most of the terms, proverbs and idioms that facilitate the inculcation of such values do not lend themselves to direct translation into English.en_US
