Question
The town idiot Temugedege (“teh-MOO-geh-DAY-gay”) is too stupid to realize why he was selected to be this sort of person in John Pepper Clark’s adaptation of the Ijaw (“EE-jaw”) Ozidi Saga. Odewale becomes one of these people in Ola Rotimi’s The Gods are Not to Blame, which is based on an earlier play titled for a man with this role. One of these people who “did not hang” titles the best-known play by Duro Ladipo. Hearing of the approaching burial of a man who had this role reminds another man that he had paid for Olunde to go to medical school in England. Before the action of a play, the death of a man with this role prompts Elesin to begin a ritual suicide before he is imprisoned by the colonial administrator Simon Pilkings. For 10 points, a Wole Soyinka play is titled for Death and what sort of leader’s “horseman?” ■END■
