Abstract

Man has the natural ability to know, explore and acquire more knowledge at different levels in life. The search for knowledge may be explored at different levels through the senses, imagination, intellect or experiences. This study however explores the concept of witchcraft which is mystical, metaphysical and epistemological in form. Ultimately, the study delves into the concept, belief and rationality of witchcraft; and at the end reveals that witches are real, exist and operate in Africa. Hence, witches possess mystical, supernatural and innate powers which can manipulate and influence people or events negatively or positively.
