INFLUENCE OF ABULE OLOKE MERIN AUDIO DRAMA IN EDUCATING YOUTHS ON HIV/AIDS AND SEX
Abstract
Because of its flexibility, radio is a primary communication medium for reaching the largest segment of the population in Africa, and particularly in Nigeria. It is claimed that radio is always present on the streets, in homes, markets, and workplaces.
It is one of the reasons for packaging the Abule Oloke Merin soap opera in radio format in order to reach a wider audience; however, one can conclude that the Abule Oloke Merin soap opera has gone a long way in influencing people’s attitudes and behavior toward HIV/AIDS while various preventive measures are introduced in the cause of presenting the drama.
As a result, the study investigates the impact of Abule Oloke Merin audio drama on educating youths about HIV/AIDS and sex through a case study of Osun State Polytechnic students. The researcher supported the Abule-Oloke Merin edutainment program with perception theory, uses and gratification theory, and a slew of other theories.
The researcher used a survey research method with questionnaire distribution to elicit data from selected respondents drawn using a simple random sampling technique on the Osun State Polytechnic, Iree campus. One hundred (100) copies of questionnaires were distributed, with 90 copies recovered.
The collected data was analyzed and interpreted using the frequency and percentage methods. According to the findings, the radio drama helps to educate and enlighten the public about HIV/AIDS and how to prevent it. It is recommended that special presenters on health and education programs be groomed, as well as regular training and seminars for presenters on health drama.
