Looks like what cultists will do

Muyiwa is a member and he was killed by rival cult group Eiye. It was said after Obama another member was killed in Aguda his men killed 2 eiye men so muyiwa was probably a reprisal attack. From what was gathered they say muyiwa was not a violent person but a financial member.This aguda and ikate side of surulere needs serious intervention. What happened to the surulere we all knew

Rest in peace

How do you know??
