No fewer than three people have been killed as rival cult groups clashed in the Aba, the Abia State commercial centre at the weekend.
It was however gathered that the groups, Aye and Aro, were fighting for superiority at the commercial capital of the state.
Unconfirmed reports stated that two persons were killed in the Omuma area of Ama-Ogbonna, while the body of the third victim was found off Aba-Owerri road.
The Aye and Aro cults, the two most prominent in Aba, have been at one another’s throats in the past few months.
It would be recalled that that a Malaysian returnee was killed at the popular Ngwa Road.
Meanwhile, the Police have warned parents to be mindful of the friends their children keep and the items they bring home.
Some items that children come home with could be the property of a rival cult member that was killed, it stated.
“What some of them do is to use the phone of another cult member whom they have killed to lure other fellow cult members to a location where they will kill them as well.
“This is why parents and guardians should ask questions when they see things that they didn’t buy for their children in their hands.”
