Edo Anti-Cultism War Records More Successes, Nine Suspected Cultists Arrested

The Edo State Special Security Squad, codenamed Operation Flush Out Cultists and Kidnappers, has scored another major breakthrough in its campaign against violent crime with the arrest of nine suspected cultists and the recovery of firearms in Iguoshodin N’ Ikpemaba, Ovia North-East Local Government Area.

Coordinator of the Squad, Idemudia Noah, said the raid was conducted in the early hours of September 3, 2025, after credible intelligence from residents indicated that cult members were terrorising the community.

“On arrival, our men moved swiftly and arrested nine suspects. A thorough search of the area led to the recovery of two Baretta pistols, two cut-to-size double-barrel guns, and live AK-47 ammunition,” Noah disclosed.

He revealed that the weapons were recovered from the premises of the Okaighele of Omi, Mr. Osazuwa Igbineweka, who has been declared wanted by police for allegedly threatening peace in the community.

Preliminary findings, according to Noah, linked the suspects to the Eiye confraternity, a cult group notorious for violent clashes and criminal activities in parts of Edo State.

“From intelligence gathered and from the relief expressed by residents, it is clear that some of those arrested belong to the Eiye cult group. Their arrest has restored confidence among the people who are pleased to see decisive action being taken,” he stated.

Residents of Iguoshodin N’ Ikpemaba hailed the operation as timely, stressing that the clampdown has brought relief to the community.

The Coordinator reiterated that the Squad would sustain its campaign, working with security agencies and communities to ensure cultism, kidnapping, and other violent crimes are flushed out of Edo State.
