Many African cultures traditionally believe in an afterlife where the spirits of the deceased continue to exist and play a role in the lives of the living. The dead are often seen as guardians or ancestors who can influence the fortunes of their descendants. Rituals and ceremonies are commonly performed to honor the deceased, ensuring they are properly guided to the afterlife and remain connected to their family and community. This belief in ancestral spirits fosters a sense of continuity and responsibility among the living.
