Shango ruled the great kingdom of Oyo (present-day Nigeria) in the 15th century. He was a powerful, tyrannical king, and feared by his people. Fire and smoke spewed from his mouth. He is the orisha of fire, lightning and thunder, always armed with a double ax and accompanied by a ram, Shango was synonymous with terror and power.
