Kongo ba yo bwa literally means "Congo gave them wood" in other words he beat them with a piece of wood.
the sentence " Dé ésklav sòti Tounapoun, Kongo ba yo bwa, fè yo déviwé" is translated as:
Two slaves ran away from Tunapuna, Congo beat them with a staff and made them return!
Tunapuna is a town in Trinidad.
Bay bwa in this case means to hit someone with a wooden staff.
