- Abstract
-
Herein, we assume the stance of a philosophical investigator to scrutinize the understanding of a typical Nigerian on eschatology and teleology. Does everything have an end? How does this end influence my immanent existence? Examined herein also, is the current state of events in our modern day Nigeria and how it can remedy both the mentality of the people as well as the already prevailing circumstances. The central question is on the Nigerian perception of eschatology and teleology; through the provided answers, the submission attempts to help us accept the current reality of a nation in fear and look towards adopting applicable contextual imagery of what it means to be culturally venerable but realistically disposed to the changing trends in the modern world.
