The Aba Knife fish (Gymnarchus niloticus), known as “eja osan” in Yoruba, holds deep cultural significance in African societies. Revered for its ability to generate electric fields, it symbolizes spiritual strength and serves as a link between the physical and spiritual realms in folklore. Used in traditional medicine and featured in art, it plays roles in rituals and ceremonies, ensuring plentiful catches and invoking blessings. Conservation efforts reflect its ecological and cultural importance, preserving its legacy in communities dependent on aquatic resources
