Abstract:
The term Degenerating and morality are often used
interchangeably to describe the moral standards. That is very low
or unacceptable to most people while morality is the principle
concerning the right and wrong or good and bad behaviours.
Morality in Abor conception involves a three dimensional
relationships namely God, man and the ontological order. A
morally good act reaffirms the right relationship between God,
man and ontological order while a morally bad act negates and
disrupts this relationship. In this study therefore, the researcher
brings together the institutions of morality, the litany of immoral
cases that have degenerated moral standards in Abor, and the
efforts of Abor people towards recovering their lost moral glory.
The current standard in the society i.e. the fallen standard was
also discussed in a fairly systematic and comprehensive way.
Some recommendations were also made. The methodology used
was descriptive historical approach.
