Villagers of Obitti autonomous community in Ohaji/Egbema Council Area of Imo State have taken to their toes as two rival cult groups operating under the names, ‘Asland and Deegbam’ stormed the area

According to PUNCH, the rampaging cult groups in their latest attack took over the entire community after killing one person and wounding many villagers.

An indigene of the community, Chief Emmanuel Odunze, called for urgent intervention of both the security agencies and government to forestall normalcy and save lives of the people

He said, “As I speak with you now, the entire community has been deserted by their owners for their own safety”.

The Special Adviser to the Governor on Bureau for Niger Delta Affairs Hon. Justus Ojika condemned the incident. He appealed to the villagers to remain calm and not to take laws into their hands

When contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Andrew Enwerem said that the State Deputy Governor, Prince Eze Madumere and the Commissioner of Police, Taiwo Lakanu had visited the area to quell the ravaging crisis.
