Today many people participate in oaths either in the Church or in government offices without knowing the implication of the oath.This study looks at the question of the origins of African oaths. Emphasis has been laid on the relationship between African oaths and the oaths that were there among the Africans before fighting for independence in Africa.A major concern of this study is to answer various questions that can be raised with reference to African oaths in general and to the religious elements in the oaths in particular.
