Four killed in Ajah cult war in Lagos

Four suspected cultists were killed during a clash between two rival cult groups of Aiye and Eiye in Ajah area of Lagos State on Sunday.

A very reliable source told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos that two suspects were arrested by operatives from Police Area “J” Command, Ajah over the killings.

Sources told NAN that the cult groups had been at logger heads over supremacy in the Sangotedo area of Ajah in recent times.

The suspected cultists used machetes and other dangerous weapons in the fight and inflicted fatal wounds on themselves.

“The police recovered four dead bodies and deposited them at the public mortuary. Three cutlesses were also recovered from the suspects.

“Security has been beefed-up in the area with more patrol policemen deployed. The area is calm now,” the source told NAN.

Policemen are also combing bushes on the road between Ogonbo community and Abraham Adesanya Estate in the Ajah area for more victims.
