Описание: The Yoruba God Who Turned Greedy Chiefs to Stone | Dark African Legend

When arrogance ruled the land and the cries of the poor went unheard, Obatala, the Yoruba god of purity and creation, descended to restore balance. In this chilling African legend, the greedy chiefs of Ilu-Oro mocked divine justice — until the heavens answered. One by one, their laughter turned to screams as they were turned to stone, forever frozen in their own pride.

In this episode of Dark African Legends, we explore a powerful Yoruba myth of divine judgment, greed, and redemption — a timeless tale that warns us:

“Greed turns men to stone long before their death.”

Through rich storytelling and cinematic visuals, witness how Obatala’s wrath became a lesson for generations, how a humble healer named Iyabo carried his message of justice across kingdoms, and how the balance between mercy and power was restored in a land consumed by corruption.
