In the Kongo language, Abada refers to a mythical animal similar to a unicorn. The Abada, however, has two crooked horns as opposed to a unicorn's single one. The Abada's horns can act as an antidote to poison and disease. It has been described as being the size of a small donkey with the tail of a boar. It also appears to those that are lost. The Abada is also known as Nillekma or Arase.^[1]
