Fear grips the people Ogun over Badoo cult incursion

Trepidation yesterday gripped residents and members of Lagos border communities within Ibafo and Mowe axis in Ogun State over alleged news of the incursion of the dreaded Badoo cult group into the area.

The situation resulted in many top schools in Lagos and businesses locking their gates and doors and, in some schools, turning back pupils, parents and customers who were ignorant of the news making rounds in the areas.

The trepidation came a day after the Ogun State Governor Ibikunle Amosu held an emergency meeting with the security chiefs in the state over reports that the notorious Badoo cult group was planning to infiltrate Ogun State.

The fear was triggered by fliers going round the communities on Thursday night that the Badoo group and a rival cult are coming to Mowe on Friday 7/7/2017 to fight due to an alleged killing that happened around Nasrul-lahi-li Fathi Society of Nigeria (NASFAT) area along Lagos /Ibadan Expressway recently.

In the flier, residents were advised to be security conscious and to relay the information to their loved ones especially in the evening within Mowe/ Ibafo axis.

The flier also alleged that the Badoo group have migrated to Ogun State due to the recent onslaught and the man-hunt for their members at their base in Ikorodu, Lagos.
