Abstract
This research intended to investigate how the selected play books: Pango by Wamitila
W.K.(2003) and Mstahiki Meya by Timothy Arege (2009) portray the youth as the
characters causing political conciousness against bad governance. This research has been
guided by the tenents of Realism theory of Hegel(1971). Majorly, the theory postulates
that the common man is always oppressed by the ruling class. The researcher used

collected in the library and analysed descriptively in line with the objectives, research
questions and be guided with the relevant tenents of the theory guiding the study.
Findings were presented descriptively in five chapters. The first chapter dealt with the
introduction, statement of the problem, scope, literature review and theoretical
framework. Chapter two investigated the imagery of political consciousness amongst the
youth in the play books. Chapter three investigated the responsibilities of the youth in
enlightening the citizens on bad governance. Chapter four investigated the effects of bad
governance to the youths and the general public. Chapter five is a summary, conclusion
and recommendations. This research is intended to benefit students, teachers critics and
other authors in demonstrating the role of the youth in improving the living standards of
the oppressed. It will also be of great importance to the citizens in comprehending the
necessity of morals and their contribution to good governance.
