Résumé,

This work sets out to examine human frailty and betrayal in julius Ocwinyo's Fate of the Banished. It is situated within the emotional challenges faced by an ordained Catholic priest and a woman whose husband is at the war front. In this light, our work looks at some problems encountered by the clergy in their celibate life. Ocwinyo presents Apire is in permanent trouble either in his studies, his various jobs, in the LRA war or when he kills both his wife and the priest as they are caught cheating on him. He also presents Erabu to display the rapacious nature of man in his quest for possessions which, most of the time, is unsuccessful. This work is then written against the hypothetical contention that the law of celibacy in the church and the absence of a husband from the home are factors that contribute to betrayal of vows.Using the New Historicism and Psychoanalytic approaches, our work concludes that the church dogma which bars priests from taking wives brings about negative consequences. In this respect, love is tied to fate and conditioned by the inevitable hypocrisies
