Four Lagos-based suspected cultists and two others have been arrested by men of the Ogun State Police Command in Odogbolu.

The suspects were arrested while allegedly making arrangements to purchase a locally-made pistol for an operation.

The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, disclosed this on Wednesday in a statement.

Oyeyemi said Oluwadamilare Aboyeji, Matthew Adebiyi, Jacob Solomon and Iliasu Jubril were based in Ikorodu, Lagos State, while Segun Olubanjo and Samuel Olaniyan were based in Odogbolu.

According to the PPRO, the suspects were arrested on November 27, 2020 in Odogbolu when the four Lagos-based alleged cultists came to meet Olubanjo and Olaniyan to foment trouble as a result of a gun transaction between the two groups.

Oyeyemi said, “Investigation revealed that the Ikorodu-based suspects contracted Samuel Olaniyan to purchase a locally-made pistol for them, and when the gun was delivered, they discovered that the pistol was not serviceable; hence they came with full force to deal with the Odogbolu-based cultists for betraying their trust.

“While the pandemonium was going on, a distress call was made to the Odogbolu Division, consequence upon which the DPO, SP Awoniyi Adekunle, quickly led his men to the scene, where the six suspects were apprehended.

“Recovered from them were one locally-made pistol and two live cartridges.”

The PPRO added that the Commissioner of Police, Edward Ajogun, had directed that the suspects and exhibits be transferred to the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department for further investigation with a view to charging them.

This is why I get angry with the police, why don't you allow them to finish themselves? At least you won't have to waste your bullets, well since you've got them execute them immediately if you can't I will head down to Abeokuta to do it for free of charge. There are foolish people but cultists are the most foolish set of humans.

It is well

Afonjas una blood dey hot dis days.

THEIR FAMILIES RIGHT NOW

What a pity!!

Well in my own opinion, I think the increasing number of Cultist, thugs and Hoodlums in Lagos and it's environs would continue to be a problem to the government n it's dwellers esp now that another rumor of protest wave is lurking around

My submission is that Government should tamper justice with mercy.

Let he that have no sin cast the first stone.

Thank you.

You see Lagos, Edo, Ogun, Rivers, Delta, Enugu, Benue and Oyo na everyday I dey pray for the revival of youths there.

Most of them have gotten it all wrong and you can't blame some of them (they made the choice to join though)

May God restore the hearts of our youths. Some don't even know why they join.

Lazy youths

Leaders of tomorrow,they wanted to hustle (robbery) for Xmas but hand Don catch them...wicked people,if u see how they will demand things from their victims as if they were the owners of the things they are demanding with boldness and with sense of superiority

When will they start parading political robbers like this?

Animals in Human Skin....

Beware Nigerians. This is the time to know and understand the true identity of those who cause tribalism on here, they are paid agents, they are neither from east or west. They have more than twenty monikers, they would create tribal related topics and make tribal comments with different monikers to cause chaos between southerners. Though, they have no conscience but you can try to educate them or better ignore them. They are easy to identify, use your head brothers.

They dominate this platform. They are evil and restless until their aim is achieved.

Are you satisfied with the status quo of this country? Nigerian youths, prepare to make this country a better one, don't be silent, speak up. Enlightened your neighbors, community about the situation of this country, educate them about their right to demad good governance from their local representatives to the national level. They can't kill us all. You may think you are comfortable now but remember the monsters the bad government policies are making, the hungry masses would search for survival by all means, they won't mind hurting others for survival. The comfortable innocent people who refused to speak against evil would also feel the heat.
