A cultist, Salisu Muktar, who fled from Nigeria in order to evade arrest, has been nabbed by operatives of the Ogun State Police Command.
According to information available to The Eagle Online, the well known kingpin of Eiye Confraternity fled to Ghana.
Muktar was, however, arrested by operatives of the Sakura Divisional Police Headquarters in Ogun State in Sagamu area of the state the moment he returned to Nigeria, thinking things had cooled down.

According to information available to The Eagle Online, the 34-year-old alleged cultist was initiated at LG School, Agura in Sagamu by one Ope, aka Sure Boi, who reportedly has been killed during the last cult clash in the area.
Muktar, aka Agbara Nla, according to police sources, confessed to being a confirmed member of Eiye Confraternity.
It was learnt that he will be transferred to the Anti-cultism Unit at the headquarters of the Ogun State Police Command for further and discreet investigation.
The Eagle Online recalls that the Command’s Commissioner, CP Abiodun Alamutu, has consistently warned criminals, including cultists, to steer clear of the state.
Alamutu had also personally led raids on cultists, especially in the Sagamu area of the state, which has become notorious for cultism.
