The collected and validated questionnaires were analyzed using frequency tables and percentage while the hypothesis were tested using Pearson Correlation statistical tool SPSS v23. The result of the findings reveals that; most pregnant women believed cesarean section was expensive, it’s a cultural taboo and they can’t bear the pains of labour. The findings also disclosed that there is significant relationship between cultural beliefs and practice as a factor that influences the perception of Oredo local government women of Cesarean section. And more ore so there is a significant relationship between the fear of death and complications of surgery as a factor that influences the attitude of Oredo local government women towards C/S. Based on the above findings, the researcher recommended that there should be awareness about C/S by the governmental institutions that would not only explain the benefits of the procedure but will also modify their misconceptions. The procedure should be better subsidized by the governmental institutions so that the economic implications will be ruled out of the reasons for rejection.
