benín folklore historical-fiction nigeria

In supernatural Nigeria, Adebayo discovers he can control nature, a gift from the once-benevolent Benin. But when humans abuse their powers to hunt mythical creatures, the Benin turns on them, unleashing chaos. Adebayo and his sister, Chioma, must navigate this turmoil, torn between loyalty to their people and preserving harmony. "Yongngo" explores power, betrayal, and redemption in a world where myth and reality collide, showcasing the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. In the hushed whispers of ancient Nigerian legend, a covert tale unfolds. It's rumored that Olókun, the secretive deity of waters, and Obiemven, the elusive god of farming, once conspired to bestow divine essence upon a child. But when the child's true nature was revealed to the creator god Osanobua, a mysterious curse befell them-limiting their thoughts to a dual nature and marking their skin with an enigmatic hue reminiscent of the straw roofs atop ancient mud houses.
