charms and tools being used for the ritual. Makama said: “They were
arrested by our men on patrol in the area.

other members of the cult gang, who have, in recent times, been
tormenting their communities and its environs.”
Speaking on her involvement and role in the gang, one of the arrested
ladies, Onyechai, said she was cajoled into joining the group.

told me that some of the men threatened them until they were initiated.

I was forced to join them after they threatened me. That is what they
did to some of us to join. It is not my fault, but I regret all my
actions.”

to court as soon as investigations into the matter are concluded.
