Residents of Ovogo, Rumuji in Emohua Local Government Area of Rivers State on Wednesday morning woke up to four severed heads which were reportedly found on the road in the community.

The four severed heads are as a result of the latest cult-related attack in the community.

The identities of the victims have not been ascertained but locals say they are young men in their mid-20s.

In the image shared on social media, one can see a sachet of an alcoholic drink, a bottle of a beverage drink and a half-smoked cigarette supposedly left at the scene.

A community source who spoke on condition of anonymity said that the community has been deserted, over fears of reprisal attacks.

He said that gunshots rented the air throughout the night, adding that they woke to the reality of the four severed heads.

He added that the body of the heads were left in an uncompleted building in the community.

It was learnt that there was a disagreement between Iceland cult group and De bam cult group over who would collect certain levies.

He added that attempts to settle the dispute by youths in the community did not make much success leading to the renewed cult battle.

This is however coming days after the Rivers State police command promised it is tackling the issues of cult-killings head-on.
