The legend of Oya is one of the most captivating tales from Yoruba mythology. Oya is the Orisha of winds, storms, transformation, and change. She is also a fierce warrior and the guardian of the realm between life and death, often associated with the Niger River (called Odo-Oya in Yoruba).
In a Yoruba village, harmony is disrupted by the Egungun Ajogun, malevolent spirits sowing chaos and fear. Oya, the goddess of storms and transformation, steps forward to confront the threat.
As she battles to restore balance, Oya’s bravery and wisdom prove essential in overcoming the chaos. This tale explores themes of love, power, sacrifice, and the eternal clash between order and disorder, rooted in the richness of Yoruba mythology.
