Suspected cultists Kills friends.

Some members of an unidentified cult group penultimate Monday killed two friends in Alapoti village, Ado-Odo/Ota Local Government Area of Ogun State.

The victims, who shared the same name, Sulaiman, allegedly slept when their assailants hacked them to death.

Our correspondent gathered that a few days to the incident, a disagreement had broken out between the victims and a youth simply identified as Abideen over an unidentified woman.

According to an impeccable source who asked not to be identified, Abideen was seeing off the woman, when one of the victims accused him of flirting with the woman whom he claimed was his father’s girlfriend.

“Although some elders of the community brokered peace between them, the matter did not go down well with Abideen, who subsequently reported the two friends to a suspected leader of a cult group.”



Another source who did not want to be named, however, said that the two friends may have been killed for declining to join the unidentified cult group a few months ago.

It was gathered that the suspected cultists who allegedly masterminded the killing of the two friends have since fled the town.

Our correspondent learnt that one of the victims had since been buried while one of the bodies is still in the mortuary.

The spokesman of Ogun Police Command, Mr Muyiwa Adejobi, could not be reached on his mobile phone at press time.
