Abstract

The general notion of existence is conceptualized in terms of human relations in the society. The world is a cauldron of socio-psychological problems yet, some societies have made theirs a more conducive environment thus reducing the stress associated with socio-psychological problems. As an act of intentional communication, rhetoric provides man with adequate weapon to fight socio-psychological problems of which Nigeria presents a typical case study. The solution lies in the application of sociopsychological communication in the rhetoric of healing for both people and society.
