research on issues concerning Religion and Society in areas such as
Ethics and Philosophy, African Tradition Religion, Islam, and
Christianity and the Bible. The journal gives an equal opportunity
and space to scholars to present scholarly and insightful research in
these areas of study. Every effort shall be made to have in every

in Africa. Thus, we hope that articles sent to us would be marked
by a high standard and originality. Oguaa, the na
