The Vice President of Mosogar Reformed Youth Association, Godwin Ogberahwe, a.k.a Last Don, was among three persons shot dead in the community within the last six days in a suspected cult rivalry.

The others are one Efe Oki and another whose identity could not be ascertained.

According to feelers, the killings may also be connected to the forthcoming election rerun in the local government council by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), or the election of president for the community youth body.

Ogberahwe reportedly survived a gunshot in early January, before he was shot again on Sunday.

Mosogar community in Ethiope West LGA is host to Delta State College of Physical Education and the country home of Peoples Democratic Party chieftain, Chief Ighoyota Amori.

When contacted, Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) DSP Bright Edafe, said the deaths were from a suspected cult clash and the men of the Command are working towards arresting the perpetrators.

“So far three persons have died over a suspected cult clash between Eiye and Arobaga cult groups. But we are on it. Sanity has been restored so far, and we are investigating to arrest those who are perpetrating these evil acts. The actors, we would get them arrested as soon as possible,” Edafe stated. (The Nation)
