The objective of the paper is to examine the development of African feminist theology. To identify role played by the circle of concerned African women theologians in developing feminist theology. Further the paper evaluates key themes in African feminist theology. In addition, the study intends to demystify the oppressive gender ideologies in the bible. The study will contribute towards conceptualization of African feminist theologies in Africa. Further the study will contribute towards the extant literature and can be used for policy development and teaching, and curriculum development towards women theology and women empowerment.
