In fact Africans profess a wide variety of religious belief, Christianity and Islam to the head. Approximately 46.3% of all Africans are Christian and the other 40.5% are Muslims. Approximately 11.8% of Africans still mainly indigenous African religions. A small number of Africans is Hindu, has belief or tradition Judaica, as the Beta Israel and the Lemba tribe.
In conclusion the indigenous African religions tend to revolve around the ancestor worship and animism.

Spirits are usually beneficial, as it is considered, including the spirits of ancestors to help their descendants, and powerful spirits that protect entire communities of the disaster or attacks by enemies, while the spirits "harmful" include the souls of the victims of murders that were buried without proper burial rites, and strong spirits, which by means of hostile spirit causing the disease among their enemies.
