No fewer than 21 suspected cult members of two rival groups, Eiye and Aiye confraternities, in Ikorodu area of Lagos, have been arrested after a clash that left two persons dead and many injured.
What could have passed as an ordinary initiation ceremony into a newly formed secret confraternity, The New Black Movement of Africa, a breakaway faction of the Aiye cult group, turned sour on Thursday at about 1am when one of the recruits who couldn’t endure the torture and other initiation rites he was subjected to, bolted for his dear life and ran to his mother’s house at Jakande Estate, Ajah, Lagos.
