Three Shot Dead In Renewed Cult Clash In Ogun

 

No fewer than four persons have been killed in a renewed cult clash in Atan-Ota area of Ogun State.

The tragic incident occurred between the rival cult group of Aiye and Eiye confraternity at Atan-Ota on Monday night at about 8 p.m

In a suspected reprisal attack, the cult members upon arrival at the Kajola area of Atan-Ota started shooting sporadically, forcing the resident to scamper for safety.

Source revealed that the attack was carried out by members of the Aiye group in revenge for the initial killing of one of their members by the members of Eiye cult group.

During the attack, at least three persons suspected to be members of the Eiye confraternity were shot dead.

Meanwhile, the Ogun State Police Command is yet to issue statement on the incident while the efforts to get a reaction from the Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer, Omolola Odutola, proved abortive, as she had yet to respond to an enquiry sent to her as of the time of filing this report.
