Since “Ayira Oba” doesn’t correspond to a widely known mainstream film, I’ll assume it’s either a rare, regional, or indie title (possibly from Nollywood, Yoruba cinema, or a misspelling of a known work). Below is a blog-style post written around the of searching for obscure movies online.

One user suggested Ayira Oba might be a corruption of Aiyé Rá Oba – loosely “The world has found a king” in Yoruba. That led me to a 1997 film: Oba Aiyé – not the same, but stylistically similar.
