This paper examines the use of Dance in Femi Osofisan's Yungba-Yungba and the dance contest as a tool for achieving egalitarianism, democratic governance and progressive change that oursociety has been clamouring for. Analytical and descriptive research methodologies are employed in interrogating this work. Arising from the above, our findings amongst others reveal that dance; a non-verbal communicative art is a tool that can be adapted to resolving knotty issues business when deployed as a tool in establishing democracy instituting bating ttrue democracy. It is therefore recommended that dance as an art should be promoted and made an integral part of academic curriculum in our educational institutions for the training of future lecturers.enDemocracyDanceAcademic CurriculumTrainingArticle
