Oke Langbodo is a reimagination of the 1977 Play Langbodo by Nigerian Dramatist, Wale Ogunyemi. The Play is an adaptation of Wole Soyinka’s ‘The Forest of a Thousand Daemons’, which in turn is a translation of D.O Fagunwa’s ‘Ogboju Ode ninu Igbo Irunmole’, originally published in 1938. D.O Fagunwa’s novel was the first full-length novel published in Yoruba Language and one of the first to be written in an African indigenous language.
