This book flows from the conviction that Africa has a wide array of philosophy richly embedded in her culture and tradition mostly expressed in oral form. Odera Oruka, calls this philosophical sagacity. On what rational ground do we stand to elaborate an African metaphysics? The answer is simply that if there is such a rational enterprise as an African philosophy then, of necessity, there must also be an African metaphysics, given that metaphysics is a subset of African philosophy.
