Ogun Police Seeks Suggestions On How To Eradicate Cultism As Command Arrests 33-Yr-Old Suspect

Worried by the menace of cultism, the Ogun State Police Command has solicited public suggestions on how to eradicate the social vice.

This is just as the command has arrested a 33-year-old man, Francis Okere for cult-related activities.

The command stated this in a short statement issued on its official Twitter handle on Wednesday.

According to the statement, Francis will be charged in court as soon as the investigation is completed.

“Francis Okere, a 33yr old man was arrested for cult-related activities. He would be charged to court as soon as the investigation is completed.

“Send in your suggestions on how to eradicate cultism in Ogun State,” the statement reads.

Cultism and gang violence have exacerbated the climate of lawlessness and fear in the Nigerian polity. But more worrying is that the menace has become so widespread that armed robbers, drug peddlers, and other sundry miscreants are now being recruited into the fold.

In many states of the federation today, cultists of various stripes act with impunity, killing, raping, and maiming victims while causing widespread destruction. Yet the authorities seem helpless in dealing with this crime.

In other news, Kanyi Daily reported that the Lagos State Police Command has rescued a day-old female baby dumped in a sewage tank in the Gowon Estate Area of the state.

The command disclosed this in a short statement on its Twitter handle on Wednesday afternoon alongside the picture of the baby.
