A suspected cult leader, Favour Nosaghare, and four others have been arrested for alleged involvement in cult-related activities at Igbinedion University, Okada, Edo State.
It was gathered that the university’s security personnel alerted operatives on July 28 at about 3:20 p.m. after Nosaghare, who had earlier been suspended over cultism, was spotted on campus in the company of other suspected members.
The operatives swiftly intervened and arrested the following individuals: Emmanuel Omogiyo, Osaigie Gerald, Obiorah Chukwudi, and Esther Chukwuma, all students of the university and alleged members of the Black Axe confraternity, also known as Aye.
Items recovered during the operation included wraps of Indian hemp, a packet of rolling paper (Rizla), and a crusher.
Upon interrogation, the principal suspect, Nosaghare, reportedly confessed to the offence.
