Journal Title: Scientific Journal of Pure and Applied Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 10

Abstract

Graphical animation which refers to comics and cartoons has been shown to be a veritable tool for formal and informal education; and an effective medium for communication due to their popularity and easy accessible format. There is the necessity to bring to the fore the need to exploit the human natural attraction to graphical animation, in utilizing comics and cartoons as a medium for formal and informal education of the indigenous cultural, civic and social values in Nigeria for public re-orientation and exposing the economic potentials.
