TIP-OFF FOR THE POLICE

One of the suspects, 20- year- old Timothy Obi, who claimed to be a native of Akinruoru-Igbo in Oshiunili North Local Government Area of Delta State, is a student of Gateway Polytechnic in Ogun State.

CONFESSION BY SUSPECT No1

In his confession, Obi said he joined the confraternity out of intimidation from other groups in his area. According to him; “On February 8, 2015, I was in my hostel preparing to go to church when my mother called me that some policemen arrested my father, Mr. Joseph Obi, alleging that I was a member of a cult group.

So, I came down to Lagos and reported at Morogbo Police station where he was detained. I told them that I was the one they were looking for. They released him. I told the police I belong to Eiye Confraternity. That I was threatened by one Chinwe Okafor to come and join the black movement of Africa, Aiye, and when I refused, he mobilized members of his gang to attack and beat me up.

I reported the incident to the police at area ‘K’ Command, Marogbo. They searched for him but did not see him. I recovered one cutlass he used to machete me on my right hand and gave it to the police. ‘’After that, one Mr. Ogidan, the former number 1 of Eiye confraternity at Gateway Polytechnic saw me and asked what happened to my hand. I told him that Chinwe Okafor and his gang attacked me, he told me to come and see him later for help.

The day I went to meet him, I was initiated because my father is a Pastor at Christ church. I felt bad about it. He asked me to give him N10,000. Two weeks after giving him the money, he gave me a gun which was not functioning. I showed the gun to my friend, Ochuko who knows about gun. Ochuko told me that the gun was not functioning. I needed the gun for protection.

I left the gun with Ochuko. After some time, I asked Ochuko to give it to Dale my friend, to keep. It was when they arrested them that I was arrested. My parents cried and said I have tarnished their image. We are four and I am the first son,” he said while weeping.

SUSPECT No2

The second suspect, OladeleAlade, 20yrs, from Igbaja in Kwara state said “ I am a barber at Magbon. I am married with a child. On Sunday morning, police came, forced the door open, arrested me in my house . They asked me at Magboro police station if I am a cultist. I said that I belong to Eiye. They had already arrested Obi’s father. The only gun with me is the one Obi gave me to keep through Ochuko. He said he will come and collect it from me on Monday.’’

SUSPECT No 3

But for Christian Mathew, 20, from Okpe, Delta state, an Okada rider, he was accused of carrying bandits for operations. In his confessions, he said “ I carry them for operations. We have gone to Agbara, we collect phones. I carried Webo, a senior confraternity member. I have carried Ochuko to operations inside Ogun state. We collected two phones. I carried Webo for operation three times, Ochuko once. All the money I received was N11,000.

SUSPECT No 4

The fourth suspect, Ogbene Ochuko Peter, 23, is from Warri North, Ugheli, Delta State. He said: “‘I am into business,. My mummy sales fish at Onyigbo. I attended Federal College of Education, Akoka. I read Auto- Tech. We are three in my family – 2 boys and one girl. I am the first son. Police arrested me because I belong to Eiye confraternity. The community knows that we belong to the cult group. I heard some people in the neighbourhood informed police that the person that owns gun is Obi.

He said Ogidan sold fake gun to him. He brought it and showed me. I told him it was fake. I gave it to David, one of my boys to keep. We went to Obi’s school for matriculation after he invited us. Webo ask us to give him the motorcycle. He is number 1 man. When I refused, he sent one of his boys to give me three slaps and collect my phone. You dare not argue with number 1 man. We later left with Webo and Henry. They entered into one hotel and collected some things because they had gun. They later gave me my phone and gave Mashal Christian Mathew N700 for fuel.’’
