Black God is a story of struggle and conflict between African traditional beliefs and values and other imported beliefs that appeared alien in the beginning, but slowly sipped in to African societies and proved popular overtime.
Kawunda Joseph Ochola was born of Ochola the son of Ochulu of Pajarak clan, an old tribe that lived in the highlands of the great Zambezi basin of Africa. Zambezi, an area ruled by the ancient King of the Zambezi People, lies in the present day Zambezi basin in Africa. His clan worshipped Ojarak, the GOD of Irarak clan. Exposed to formal education, Kawunda was inclined to abandon his ancestral God, now only labeled a ‘god’ and believed in the Christian God and the gospel of Jesus Christ. Are his former gods really malevolent as the School and the Church believed or had he only been brainwashed by formal education?
As Kawunda becomes man, fate’s hands untangled an old marriage pledge with a conservative woman who is deeply imbued in the very cultural practices the church fights. How far will her faith, love and loyalty deliver the desires of her heart?
