Also speaking with SaharaReporters, the state police boss, Ari Mohammed Ali, disclosed that in the next few days to come, there shall be “a harvest of cultists and criminals across the state.”
“As I speak with you now, there is a serious manhunt for cultists and criminals. Yes, there have been cases of cultism on the rise in recent weeks because intelligence revealed both Black Axe confraternity (Aiye) and Vikings (Buccaneers) are at loggerheads for reasons unknown.”
On the recent attacks on police stations in some parts of the state, Ali said, initially the command thought the attacks were carried out by members of the Indigenous People Of Biafra and the Eastern Security Network, but investigations however revealed that the attacks were carried out by cultists.
It would be recalled that a student of the Delta State University (DELSU) was recently murdered by suspected cultists.
