BREAKING: Upper On Fire As Rival Cult War Claims Over 20 Lives In Benin

The renewed cult war between two rival groups, Eiye confraternity and Vikings, has erupted in some parts of Benin, resulting in over 20 person deaths.

Investigation revealed that the cult clash, which is heating up in Idogbo areas of the upper Sakponba ikpoba okha local government area of Edo state, has led to a shooting spree in that area, which has affected business activities.

The Standard Gazette gathered that the clash, which started due to a misunderstanding among friends belonging to rival cult groups, quickly spread to city centres with little or no resistance from security agencies.

A call put across to the police Image maker, DSP Moses, yielded little to no result as he said he was on his way to Auchi over the kidnap of a Reverend Father.

However, the situation is now causing apprehension among the people and other well-meaning individuals.
