Abstract This article has examined the role of superstitious sayings in developing indigenous instruction with reference to Nyakyusa community in Tanzania. The primary data obtained from Rungwe district in the Mbeya region. Data were obtained in the villages and wards of Kandete (Mwela), Luteba (Kilasi), and Isange (Mbigili). A total of 54 respondents were interviewed making an average of 18 respondents in each village. The ratio of respondents was based on gender and age criteria. Interviews and asking questions techniques were used to get data from the target audience. A review of the documents used to verify the primary data was obtained by electronic and library approaches. The analysis of the accessible data were guided by Sociological theory. One of its foundations is to look at the natural environment of society as the one that determines the way a literary work should be. The results of the study are presenteddescriptively. The results of the research have shown various missions that aim to train, strengthen and keep the community together on the solid foundations of community traditions and customs. Similarly, they have presented basic human actions that manifest themselves in all aspects of life and its development. Therefore, this article recommends that more research be done in other genres of oral literature about the role of superstitious sayings in developing indigenous instruction in the community.
