A leader of the Odua Peoples’ Congress, Victor
Omoruyi, has been shot dead during the ongoing
cult clash in Edo State. Over 10 persons have been killed in different parts
of Benin City since the clash began last Saturday. Victor was killed at Uselu area in Egor local
government area where members of OPC in the
area have gathered to plan for an end of year party. Armed youths suspected to be cultists reportedly
stormed the meeting venue and shot Victor dead. The Victor’s corpse was displayed in the street by
members of OPC in the state, who swore to avenge
his death. An OPC member, Yomi Adeleye, said the gang
invaded the meeting venue with pump action guns
and killed one of their members. He vowed that OPC would strike back if security
agencies do not arrest the culprits.http://thenationonlineng.net/new/opc-leader-others-killed-edo-cult-clash/
