|b Identity is an important topic that concerns many writers and critics. It is highly connected with the writings in the previous European colonized countries. The Postcolonial works mainly seek to address the social, political, and cultural issues facing societies that were colonized. Writers like Derek Walcott and Wole Soyinka created influential dramatic works to highlight the plight of colonized societies and their attempts to alleviate the negative influences. This paper aims to provide the reader with the future vision of Soyinka’s depiction of the Nigerian postcolonial identity. This end is achieved by examining the postcolonial element in the two plays of A Dance of the Forests (1960) and The Road (1965). The plays reveal Soyinka’s intellectual and political concerns as well as his attempt to rescue Africans from the colonial and neocolonial cultural denigration in a manner that acknowledges the global contexts of Africa’s colonial formation. Soyinka, also, mentioned the crisis emanating from the colonial era and persisting in the postcolonial age as well as conceptualizing the responsibilities of the people in the colonized societies. He believes that through history and rituals, the country’s future can be controlled, and the colonial memories can be exorcised.
