Aya: Aya literally in the Ghanaian language means ‘grandmother’. Aya is Ananse mother who believes in traditional ceremonies. Aya is more rustic; crude and spiritual. She is fully involved in the rituals and chants and invokes prayers on Anansewa before unveiling her during the out-dooring ceremony. She is brave and very loving; she loves her son, Ananse, and her granddaughter, Anansewa. When she heard of the family threat, she described to go and tackle, single-handedly, and punish the ‘offspring of vipers’.
