Ok, so if you are still here then you must be ok with spoilers, so let’s get cracking. Why did Yusuf Kama take the unbreakable vow?
Well, according to Entertainment Weekly, who got the information direct from Pottermore, Yusuf has taken an Unbreakable Vow to track down Credence Barebone. How significant is an Unbreakable Vow? Well very, because if Yusuf does not fulfill his vow, he will die.
Why he is tracking down Credence is not fully known, but there are some ideas now that we know the character a bit better.

Portrayed by William Nadylam, Yusuf Kama, is a French-African wizard who is the last male member of his pureblood family, or so he claims.
He is related to Leta Lestrange, so kudos for everyone who theorized that one, but Leta is only his half-sibling. Both Yusuf and Leta share the same father, the evil wizard Corvus Lestrange.
Clearly, family is everything to Yusuf, so the theory emerging is that Credence is related, in some way to him, the theory being Credence and Leta are related so, therefore, Credence and Yusuf are related, and this is why he is searching for him so desperately, that he is willing to take an Unbreakable Vow.
The dots won’t fully connect until Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald arrives in theatre, so until then, let’s theorize and see who gets it right.
