Tunde, Caught For Cultism In Ogun... Confesses Of Being A Member Of Ẹiyẹ Confraternity

A notorious member of the dreaded EIye confraternity, Esuruoso Tunde, was on the early hours of Monday 29th of November 2021 arrested by men of Ogun state police command, while attacking lodgers at LADIS hotel, situated at Ebenezer junction, Obantoko area of Abeokuta. 

The suspect was arrested following a distress call received by the policemen attached to Obantoko divisional headquarters, that the said hotel is under attack by suspected cultists. 

Upon the distress call, the Dpo Obantoko, SP Ignatius Alimiekena, quickly mobilized his patrol team and moved to the scene. The hotel premises was there and then cordoned off by the policemen, making it difficult for the hoodlums who have mingled with the customers to get out of the premises.

On interrogation, the suspect confessed been a member of Eye confraternity, and that the gun was handed over to him by one of his colleagues simply known as "Scatter".
