The study examined the contribution of the implementation of the Senior Secondary School Social Studies curriculum towards engendering value re-orientation in Nigeria. It adopted a descriptive survey research design. The population comprises of all secondary school teachers in Abeokuta South Local Government Area of Ogun State. A random sampling technique was used to select ten (10) secondary schools in the Local Government area. Fifteen teachers were randomly selected from each of the schools to make a total of one hundred and fifty (150) as sample for the study. The instrument used for data collection was a questionnaire with four point scale. Data analysis was done using simple percentage. Findings from the study revealed that there are many social problems facing Nigeria citizens which are major barriers towards national development and that Social Studies can help to address majority of the social issues, if the curriculum is properly implemented. It was therefore suggested that for effective value orientation and to promote unity in the country, Social Studies should be taught at all levels of education including Senior Secondary Schools in Nigeria. Hence, it is essential that the social studies curriculum should be implemented in senior secondary schools to compliment what students have been taught in the junior classes.
