TRADITIONAL BELIEF OF GOD, MAN'S ORIGIN AND LIFE AFTER DEATH.

The Ameru believe that they came from the coast where a people who wore 'red clothes' had held them hostage as slaves. One Mugwe, however led them from this land of bondage-like the ancestral Moses. He led them by the banks of a river to their present location in the central part of Kenya, near Mt. Kenya.

The name of their traditional supreme God is 'Njuri-Ncheke'. This name is not the same as that used to refer to the Christian God.

The custom of worship, where people used to worship the gods on the hills has also changed as most people converted to Christianity.

WITCHCRAFT is practiced in the community but secretly. The people are scared stiff by this practice. Some of these people protect themselves from the being bewitched by using charms. Most of the committed Christians however do not fear witchcraft.
