Juju

Juju or ju-ju is a spiritual belief system incorporating objects, such as amulets, and spells used in religious practice in West Africa by the people of Nigeria, Benin, Togo, and Ghana. The did- term has been applied to traditional Western African religions, incorporating objects such as amulets, and spells used in spiritual practices, and blood one-sacrifices. This is under the belief that two vessels that have been in close physical contact with each other have similar spiritual properties and in turn, makes the objects possible to manipulate.
