The police in Ogun State have arrested three
suspected cult members in the Ijoko area of the
state in connection with a deadly clash between two
rival groups – Eiye and Aiye confraternities ─ in the
community.
PUNCH Metro learnt that the suspects, identified as
Idris Adejumo, aka Aloma; Muyideen Bello, aka Iso;
and Friday Edoh, were apprehended around 8am on
Wednesday by policemen attached to the Agbado
Police Division shortly after they started fomenting
trouble in the neighbourhood.
Edoh claimed to be a member of a vigilance group
while Aloma confessed to being a member of Aiye
Confraternity. Iso said he was just a friend to Aloma.
Our correspondent had reported on August 7 that
three persons died on August 5, while others were
injured when the two rival groups clashed. The state
police command, however, said only a youth,
identified simply as Sunday aka Fele, was killed in the
attack.
Fele, who was said to be a member of the Eiye
Confraternity had visited his mother on the fateful
day with his friend, Olamilekan Oladitan and were
returning on a motorcycle when Aloma and his gang
members reportedly waylaid them.
Fele was hacked to death, while Oladitan was
severely injured and rushed to a hospital.
Oladitan, who was at the station on Wednesday, said,
“Sunday met and I were friends. We played together
at the palace. We were returning from his mother’s
place on a motorcycle that day when Aloma and his
members ambushed us. They attacked us and poured
alcohol into our mouths. I pretended as if I was dead.
Some people later rescued me.”
Aloma told the police that he and six others had gone
to Ijoko-Ogba Ayo area on Wednesday to extort
money from commercial motorcyclists (okada riders)
when he was arrested.
He said, “I was not the one who killed him (Fele). That
fight was between boys working for two monarchs in
our area. I only know those boys; I don’t belong to
any group. Fele belonged to Eiye Confraternity and
he usually stayed at a palace with his members.
About seven of us went to collect money from okada
riders this morning (Wednesday). We were not
fighting.”
Iso, who denied being a cultist, said he was neither
involved in the August 5 clash nor the Wednesday’s
fight, adding that he was on a visit to a friend when
the police raided the area.
He said, “I am not a cultist. I only know Aloma. I was
at a drinking joint in Ogba Ayo this morning when he
came and we exchanged greetings. He then took an
okada to Abule. Some minutes later, I also took an
okada to visit a friend called Radical in Abule.
Iwanted to leave there when the police arrested me.
I was not at home during the clash on August 5.”
Edoh said he was coming from a church in the
community, where he was posted to for a night duty
when he was arrested.
The Ogun State Police spokesperson, DSP Muyiwa
Adejobi, said the suspects were being investigated
and would be charged to court afterwards.
He said, “Policemen of the State Department of
Criminal Investigation, with the help of operatives at
Agbado Police Division, stormed the area this
morning (Wednesday) and were able to arrest three
suspected cultists in connection with a recent deadly
clash in the community. They have been transferred
to the SDCI in Eleweran for further investigation.
They will be charged to court after investigation.”

Ogun holds the african record for the number of missing people in Africa alone most have been used to appease one god like that or the other.

Ogun is too fetish.

A colleague of mine narrated how he narrowly escaped being used for rituals in Ogun. He followed his friend to his village and right in his presence, they were asking his friend if he wanted to use my colleague for money rituals.

Had his friend nodded yes, he wouldn't have come out alive. Rituals is really no 'biggie' in a lot of areas there, and they use humans.


That's too backward.

Was it not in Ogun State that a toddler started missing during naming ceremony only to be discovered in a shrine in the outskirt of the city.

Yorubass are diabolic but Ogun seems to be the headquarters

My cousin lives in ogun state, she said if you caught yourself outside 7PM only two things are in involve, its either they use you for rituals or they rob all your belongings.

Even in camp during NYSC, corpers were warned about keeping late nights in Ogun state to avoid stories that touches the heart.

Do you know whether your father is among them

BuddahMonk:


Do you know whether your father is among them

now I can understand ur fear and its obvious, because u knw d statistical data of ritualists in the country and because ur father is one should not make u think every other person's father is...


U are only seeking attention..n.b. U don't just talk to people's parents anyhow, if u don't cherish urs, they cherish thiers
