Oba – Yoruban Goddess of Rivers. Oba is an West African goddess, worshiped primarily in Nigeria, and also in the Santerian and Yoruban New World traditions. She forms a triad with Oshun and Oya. Oba is the power of flowing water, representing the inevitable flow of time and life, and the movement of energy. She is the dutiful wife who shows honor and loyalty to her husband, even when it is undeserving.
