dc.description.abstractThe paper sets before ‘Outsider’ and ‘Insider’ as pivot, the study of African Traditional Religion which it argued that has undergone various stages of evolution. It then proceeds to contribute to the on-going efforts of scholars of African Traditional Religion to identify the classification of scholars of African Traditional religion that could be described as ‘Outsider’ and ‘Insider’. This distinction we found to be blur, overlapping, interface and cross-pollinating. The paper argues that to clarify the distinction between the ‘Outsider’ and ‘Insider’ study of African Traditional Religion, there is the need to expunge biological, racial and geographical sentiments. It posited in its conclusion that other parameters like prejudice, brainwashing, hyper-diffusion, theological gymnastics, and conceptual convoluted thoughts of running African Traditional Religion on the template of other religions with Judeo-Christian at the fore should be given sufficient considerations.en_US
