Some Officers and men of the
“Operation Safe Delta” Unit of the Nigeria Police Force, NPF led by CSP Anieteh
Eyoh on Thursday night arrested over fifty suspected cultists in Udu Local
Government Area of Delta State.
The suspects were arrested by the Police at different brothels and hideouts.
More arrests are coming, following series of rival cult clashes and killings in the area.
In his words, “They were
actually arrested because of the cult crisis going on.
“So, I felt I should send a
team to go and bring the menace down and deal with the problems of cultism, we
are not going to relent.
“We will continue our war
against these cultists because, a situation whereby they take delight in
injuring themselves, to the extent of even waging war against themselves,
killing themselves, I will not tolerate that.
“All I know is that arrests
were made and off course investigation will continue and recoveries might be
made. But as I speak with you, I have not heard anything as regards recovery of
weapons.
