Fred Agbeyegbe’s The King Must Dance Naked

A story woven around a man-woman riddle is a dramatization of a radical quest for change through the confrontation of unbalanced laws of human existence.

After the coronation of King Omajuwa in Ogbodume, the land was plagued by famine, drought, and diseases. Also, the King’s inability to produce an heir.

The Oracle, through Afnotan, the chief priest, divines that the solution to the continuous suffering of the people is for the king to dance naked in the presence of the chiefs.

Also, who is Mejebi? What does he have to do with the king dancing naked?
