São Benedito, descendente de escravos provenientes da Etiópia, nasceu em Itália, em 1562 e foi um grande defensor dos oprimidos. É um Santo muito querido no Brasil.

A imagem deste Santo, toda pintada de preto, encontrava-se na Capela do Cemitério de Munawa e foi benzida em 20 de Janeiro de 1892.

Em 1971, para a resguardar de cobiças alheias, foi depositada na Cãmara Municipal do Ibo.
