Ogbunabali
Ogbunabali (Igbo: Ogbúnàbàlị̀, lit. '[He] kills at night') is the traditional Igbo death deity. His name is considered to be a literal description of his character as he is said to kill his victims in the night, these usually being criminals or those who have committed an unspeakable taboo.[1]
