A suspected cultist was on Sunday evening shot dead by a rival cult group in Osogbo, Osun State capital.

This is coming three days after a suspected cultist was killed by a six-man gang at Oke-Ijetu area of Osogbo. It was gathered that the young boy was running towards Sasa market, Oke-Baale area of Osogbo from Obokun side, shouting ‘Aiye, Aiye, Aiye’, chased by members of rival cult group numbering about six on motorcycles.

According to an eyewitness, Usman Adekunle, the assailant chased the deceased on a motorcycle around 5:05 pm and caught up with him at Sasa junction, shot him, and he died on the spot.

 

 

“It was surprising to see some young boy chasing another one who was running towards Sasa junction shouting, they caught him at the junction and killed him there.

“We all ran for our lives because they also took the gun of the deceased and harassed many shop owners before they turned towards Obokun road and went away”, he said.
