Answer to Question 1

 Thirteen minutes into the piece, Fela delivers a sermon that names obstacles to the people's enjoyment of life: electoral fraud and military coups, corruption by the Nigerian elite, collapse of traditional culture, and dereliction of responsibility by the neo-colonial Western powers.

Answer to Question 2

 Fela composed for a large orchestra, with a wide dynamic range.
 Bass plays the temporal structure and the pillar tones of its tonality, while rhythm electric guitars play interlocking vamp figures. In TDTMN, the solid-feeling time values of the bass contrast with the quicker motion of the guitars. See Transcription 3.21, p. 153.
