The young Odewale was found and picked up by a farmer hunter, who raised him, and the series of events that unfolded thereafter led to the ‘justification’ of the gods. However, the messenger had pity on the child, wrapped him in a white cloth and left him in a bush far from Kutuje. To prevent this from occurring, King Adetusa ordered for Odewale to be killed. The manner in which Odewale killed his father was revealed in a flashback, as it was foretold at his birth that Odewale will kill his father, the king, and marry his mother the queen. The play is set in an ancient Yoruba community and centred on ‘Odewale’, a king of Kutuje, who had risen to power by unknowingly murdering the old king, ‘King Adetusa’, who was also his father. “The gods are not to blame’’ is a 1971 novel by Nigerian Playwright, Ola Rotimi, an adaptation of the Greek classic Oedipus Rex.
