Professor Taofiq Nasir receives SONTA Lifetime Achievement Award

The Society of Nigeria Theatre Artists has honoured FUOYE professor Taofiq Olaide Nasir for more than two decades of work in theatre scholarship, applied drama and dramatherapy. He is widely recognised as Africa’s first professor of dramatherapy.

WHY TWALE: This is recognition for a field that connects creative practice with rehabilitation, trauma recovery, education and community intervention—not celebrity visibility.
