Tension as Eiye, Black Axe cult clash in Edo

A total of 30 people have so far died in a recurring cult war between Eiye and Black Axe confraternity groups in Edo state.

The latest violence has claimed the life of a vigilante commander simply known as Osagie in Ekosodin community in the state.

The incident occurred at a Keke Napep park along the Benin-Ore express road in Ovia Northeast local government area.

Osagie’s untimely death prompted a surge in anxiety within the community. Security networks and community elders responded by imposing a ban on the traditional December 31 crossover night service, signalling the gravity of the situation.
