Two suspects, Hammed Olawale and Japhet Oderinde, were taken into custody by Lagos State Police Command officers from the Igando Division following a conflict between rival cults.
SP Benjamin Hundeyin, the command’s public relations officer, revealed this on his X account on Sunday.
A locally made semiautomatic pistol was found on the suspects, according to Hundeyin, who also stated that other suspects are being sought after.
Additionally, he said that Abeeb Fagbohun had been shot and was being treated at a hospital.
He wrote, “20-year-old Hammed Olawale and 23-year-old Japhet Oderinde have been arrested by officers from Igando Division after responding to a distress call that two rival cult groups had gone on rampage.
“The two suspects were found in possession of a locally fabricated semiautomatic pistol with four live rounds of 9mm ammunition.
“26-year-old Abeeb Fagbohun was found shot and promptly taken to hospital. Efforts in top gear to arrest fleeing suspects.”
