In this Yoruba epic play we are going to look at how character played out in making or marring the relationship between Yoruba mythical couples, Ogun Yoruba god of iron, and Oya, the river goddess.

The play is about Ogun's journey to earth and he decides to take along Oya, who is his betrothed.

His character as an aggressive, temperamental and authoritarian created a big gap between him and Oya. Oya later finds peace with Sango who is gentle with her. This realization resulted to domestic violence, because Oya was treated as an object to be kept at home and never to protest against unlawful treatment, all in the name of being submissive without compassion.
