Cultists operating in the diobu axis of Rivers State, are currently facing tough times, as the Eagle crack unit of the Nigeria Police Force attached to the Mile one Police Station, has declared to end their nefarious activities.
An operation led by the E-crack Commander SP Obot, on Wednesday night, led to the arrest of over 15 suspected members of ‘Uglies’ and ‘Castro’ houses of Deygbam cult groups, operating at Timber waterside, back of St. Thomas, and the popular Ikoku spare part area of diobu.
Africa Update further gathered that the operation by the E-Crack unit was done in collaboration with the diobu vigilante group, which provided useful information that also led to the arrest of the notorious Queen Mother of ‘Dem Mama’ female house of Deygbam cult group.
Those arrested were allegedly involved in the EndSARS protest that caused mayhem in parts of Diobu, including the attempt to set the Mile 1 and Azikiwe Divisional Police headquarters ablaze. Some of the suspects are said to have been responsible for the robbery of passersby on that fateful day. Names of some of the suspects were given as: lgoni, ThankGod, Ichie, Wisdom, Nengia, Ifeanyi, and Justice.
