AWKA, Anambra- Cult war raging in Eke Awka Market in Awka South local Government Area of Anambra State to stamp the seal of supremacy has claimed one person, simply identified as Igwe Omeli.

He was killed on Wednesday morning around 7 am inside the market as traders were coming to open their shops.

Igwe Omeli is suspected to be one of the leaders of Aye cult group in the market,whom the leadership used to force compliance on members of the market.

A source, who doesn’t want his name in print, said it was war between the Baga and Aye cult group in the market.

” It is related to market politics,but the man  killed was the guy they used to terrorist us  and enforce compliance. Any time the leaderships want to enforce any agenda,he is the person and others they  used” he said .

He told our reporter that,the Baga cult group members were pushing  Omeli and he  ran into the market to mobilize his boys to rescue him and unfortunately for him before his boys could arrive,they have beheaded him and cut off his  male organ.

According to him,it is only God that saved the market , because if the Aye members had arrived on time many people would have been killed.

“He was killed inside the market where they are selling meats and they cut his head and male organ with the butcher’s knives.

It is by God’s grace the diseased members could not come out on time ,it would have been disastrous” he stated .

He also stated that people ran away in the morning but they have started coming back to shops.

The source also disclosed  that few weeks ago , Aye  cult group killed one Baga man simply identified as Salvage andvcut off his head and male organ .

When contacted the state Police spokesman DSP Ikenga Tochukwu said he had no information and promised to get back to our correspondent after confirming from the divisional Police officer.

When our correspondent called him back after one hour ,he did not pick his call.
