Community deserted as cultists kill 19 residents in Rivers State

No fewer than 19 people were feared killed in a renewed cult clash in Obelle Community in Emohua Local Government Area of Rivers State on Sunday.

The development has sparked panic in the area as residents have deserted the community for safety.

It would be recalled that on Wednesday, unidentified gunmen believed to be members of a cult group invaded the community and killed seven people.

While the community was still reeling in the pain of the incident, on Sunday morning, the two cult groups in the area resumed their battle for supremacy after over two years of vacation.

It was gathered that the supremacy battle on Sunday was between the Deybam and Icelanders cult groups.

Our correspondent learnt that after the Wednesday killing, the group whose members were killed on Sunday invaded Obelle community and started attacking relatives of those perceived to be part of the cult group that earlier killed seven people.

A source in the area, who gave his name simply as Kingsley, alleged that it was while the group who lost their members on Wednesday was operating that the rivals arrived.

Kingsley said, “On Sunday, cultists clashed in our community. Many people have been killed. Innocent people were killed. The shooting was too much and the people started leaving the community. About 19 people have been killed.

“On Sunday morning, some cultists came out and started shooting. They were attacking relatives of the people they said were members of the gang that killed their members. It did not take time, the other group came out. They started shooting themselves. People from the two groups also died.

“We are calling on the government to come to our aid. These cults are trying to scatter the people we have in this community. We want the police and army to help us.”

When contacted, the spokesperson for the state police command, Grace Iringe-Koko, confirmed the incident, saying the clash was linked to levies from an oil company in the area, saying the number of casualty was 10.

She stated, “It is a cult clash between loyalists of Naked Wire and Carol. They are fighting over the control of levies from an oil company operative in the area.

“About 10 confirmed dead. No arrest yet, but investigation is ongoing.”

  1. Quality writing that respects the reader’s intelligence without overloading them, and a quick look at DeathRayVision reflected that approach, a balanced thoughtful site that earns trust by being consistent rather than by shouting about how trustworthy it is which is the usual approach online sadly across most content categories.

  2. Reading this in the time it took to drink half a cup of coffee, and a stop at Letter4Reform fit naturally into the second half, content that respects the rhythms of a typical morning is content with practical fit and this site has the kind of length and pacing that works for the way I actually read.

  3. Felt like the writer was speaking directly to someone with my level of curiosity, neither talking down nor showing off, and a stop at MasquePourVous kept that comfortable matching going, finding writing that meets you where you are rather than asking you to climb up or stoop down feels great every time it happens.

  4. Now thinking the topic is more interesting than I had given it credit for, and a stop at hopprojects continued that elevated interest, content that revives my curiosity about subjects I had set aside is doing genuine work in the structure of my interests and this site is providing that revivifying effect today actually.

  5. Definitely returning here, that is decided, and a look at crayonwishesandpopsicledreams only made the case stronger, this is one of those rare websites that rewards regular visits rather than feeling stale after the first read which is something I cannot say about most of the places I bookmark today across all my topics.

  6. Will share this on a forum I am part of where it will be appreciated by others working in the same area, and a look at choice-eats suggests there is more here worth passing along too, definitely a generous resource that deserves a wider audience than it probably has today across the open internet.

  7. Picked a single sentence from this post to remember, and a look at bighappenshere gave me another to keep, content that produces memorable lines is doing more than just transferring information and the small selection of sentences I keep from each reading session is one of the actual returns I get from reading carefully.

  8. The examples really helped me grasp the points faster than abstract descriptions would have, and a stop at quvexacapital added a few more practical illustrations that drove the message home, the kind of writing that knows its readers learn better through concrete situations rather than vague generalities is rare and worth recognising clearly.

  9. Good quality through and through, no rough edges and no signs of being rushed, and a quick look at crownaboutnow kept the same polish going, the kind of site that respects its own brand by maintaining consistency across pages which is something I always appreciate as a reader looking for trustworthy information online today.

  10. Thanks for treating the topic with the seriousness it deserves without becoming pompous about it, and a stop at kryvoxcore continued that balanced treatment, the gap between earnest and self serious is huge and writers who can stay on the right side of it earn my respect when I find them online today.

  11. Bookmark earned and folder updated to track this site separately, and a look at hellgate100nyc confirmed the folder upgrade was the right call, organising my reading list so that good sites do not get lost in a sea of casual bookmarks is something I do more carefully now and this site warranted its own spot.

  12. Just want to flag that this was useful and not bury the appreciation in caveats, and a look at votethurm earned the same direct praise, recognising good work without hedging it with criticism is something I try to practice because over qualified compliments tend to read as backhanded and miss the point sometimes.

  13. It’s amazing to pay a visit this web page and reading the views of all mates regarding this piece of writing, while I
    am also zealous of getting know-how.

  14. Worth recognising that the post did not pretend to be the final word on the topic, and a stop at stktgroup continued that humility, content that admits its own scope and limits is more trustworthy than content that overreaches and this site has clearly developed the editorial maturity to know what it can and cannot claim well.

  15. Now appreciating that the post did not require me to agree with the writer to find it valuable, and a look at flourandoak maintained the same useful regardless of agreement quality, content that informs even when it does not convince is content with broader utility and this site reads as useful even when I disagree.

  16. Sets a higher bar than most of what shows up in search results for this topic, and a look at trabas007hoki did not lower that bar at all, in fact it confirmed the impression, this is the kind of consistency that earns a place in regular rotation for serious readers instead of casual scrollers passing through.

  17. Even on a quick first read the substance of the post comes through, and a look at walkunchained reinforced that immediate quality, content that does not require a slow careful read to demonstrate value but rewards one anyway is content with real depth and this site has produced work of that demanding depth class.

  18. Reading this slowly and letting each paragraph land before moving on, and a stop at quinttatro earned the same patient approach, content that rewards slow reading rather than speed is content with real density and the writers here are clearly producing work that benefits from the careful eye rather than the rushed scan.

  19. Now noticing the careful balance the post struck between confidence and humility, and a stop at fivestarlandandlivestock maintained the same balance, finding the line between asserting and admitting is hard and this site has clearly developed the calibration to walk that line consistently which produces a more persuasive reading experience for me.

  20. Just wanted to drop a quick note saying this was a useful read on a topic I have been circling, no fluff, and a stop at GoesToTown added a few extra points that fit the same simple style which makes the whole site feel coherent rather than thrown together by many different writers with different goals.

  21. Skipped the related products section because there was none, and a stop at cs-nippon-cp also lacked any aggressive monetisation, content that is not constantly trying to convert me into a customer or subscriber is content that has confidence in its own value and that confidence shows up as a different reading experience.

  22. A piece that read smoothly because the writer understood how readers actually move through prose, and a look at larkfest2013 maintained the same reader awareness, writers who think about the reading experience as much as the writing experience produce better work and this site has clearly made that shift in editorial approach.

  23. Thank you for the genuine effort here, it shows in every paragraph and not just the headline, and after my visit to kavionbond I was sure this site cares about getting things right rather than chasing clicks, which is the main reason I will come back later this week to read more.

  24. Worth flagging this site to a few specific friends who would appreciate the editorial sensibility, and a look at moeinclub added more pages I will mention to them, recommending sites to specific people requires understanding both the site and the person and this site is making those personalised recommendations easy and natural for me.

  25. Yesterday I was complaining about the state of online writing and today this site has temporarily fixed that complaint, and a look at covidtest-cyprus extended that mood reversal, the short term mood improvement that comes from finding good content is real and this site has produced that improvement for me at a useful moment.

  26. Taking the time to read carefully here has been worthwhile for the past hour, and a look at MeetKateMarshall extended the worthwhile reading, the calculation of return on reading time spent is something I do informally and this site has been producing positive returns across multiple sessions during the last week of regular visits and reads.

  27. Picked this for a morning recommendation in our company chat, and a look at stevieandbrucelive suggested I will mention this site again later, recommending content into a workplace context is a small editorial act that requires confidence in the recommendation and this site is making me confident in those recommendations consistently here too.

  28. Learned something from this without having to dig through layers of fluff, and a stop at stacoa added a bit more context that helped tie things together for me, definitely a useful corner of the internet for anyone who wants real information without the usual marketing nonsense around it that often ruins similar pages.

  29. A clean read with no irritations, and a look at sjydtech continued that frictionless quality, the absence of small irritations is something I notice only when present elsewhere and this site is one of the rare places where everything just works and lets me focus on the substance rather than fighting the format.

  30. Sets a higher bar than most of what shows up in search results for this topic, and a look at republicw4 did not lower that bar at all, in fact it confirmed the impression, this is the kind of consistency that earns a place in regular rotation for serious readers instead of casual scrollers passing through.

  31. Decided not to skim despite my usual habit and was rewarded for the discipline, and a stop at imprintregistry earned the same patient approach, training myself to recognise sites that warrant slower reading is part of being a careful online reader and this site is the kind that helps me practice that skill regularly.

  32. Reading this in a quiet coffee shop matched the calm energy of the writing, and a stop at zorivocore extended that environmental match, content that has its own ambient quality which can match or clash with surroundings is content with a personality and this site has the kind of personality that suits calm reading.

  33. Found this really helpful, the explanations are simple but they actually answer the questions a normal reader would have, and after I followed maveroholdings I had a clearer sense of the topic, no extra fluff just useful points laid out in a sensible order that made the time worth it.

  34. Now noticing that the post avoided the temptation to be funny in places where humour would have undermined the substance, and a stop at fearlessfoodrd maintained the same restraint, knowing when to be serious is a rare editorial virtue and this site has clearly developed it through what I assume is careful editorial practice over years.

  35. Closed it feeling I had taken something away rather than just consumed something, and a stop at kryvoxbonding extended that taking away feeling, the difference between content I extract value from and content I just pass through is something I track informally and this site is consistently in the value extraction column for me.

  36. My time on this site has now extended past what I had budgeted, and a stop at pelixotrustgroup keeps extending it further, content that overstays its budget in my schedule is content that has earned the extra time and this site has been earning extra time across multiple visits to the point where my schedule needs adjustment.

  37. Just want to say thank you for putting this together, posts like these make searching online actually worth it sometimes, and a quick look at holyspiritschooleg kept that going, useful and easy to read without any of the tricks that ruin most blog comment sections lately on the wider open web.

  38. Time spent here today felt productive in the way that good reading sessions sometimes do, and a stop at LotsOfOnlinePeople extended that productive feeling across the rest of the morning, the difference between productive reading and merely passing time is real and this site is consistently on the productive side for me lately.

  39. Worth every minute of the time spent reading, and a stop at summerstageinharlem extends that value across more pages, in a media environment where most content is engineered to waste attention this site stands out by treating reader time as something valuable rather than something to be exploited and stretched as far as possible.

  40. Honestly this was the highlight of my reading queue today, and a look at jammykspeaks extended that across more pages I will return to, ranking what I read against what else I read each day is something I do informally and this site keeps moving up in those rankings the more I explore it.

  41. Really appreciate that the writer did not stretch the post to hit some target word count, the points end when they are made, and a stop at pepplish reflected the same discipline, brevity is generosity in disguise and this site has clearly figured that out far better than most blog operations have.

  42. This stands out compared to similar posts I have read recently, less noise and more substance, and a look at motivilovesmusic kept that gap going, you can really feel the difference between content made by someone who cares versus content made to fill a publishing schedule for an algorithm trying to keep growing somehow.

  43. A piece that handled a controversial angle without becoming heated, and a look at wellnesstourbus continued that calm engagement, content that can address contested topics without inflaming them is doing rare diplomatic work and this site has clearly developed the editorial maturity to handle sensitive material with the appropriate temperature of writing throughout.

  44. Liked that the post resisted a sales pitch ending, and a stop at michaeldfountain maintained the no pitch approach, content that ends without trying to convert me into a customer or subscriber is content that has confidence in its own value and this site is clearly playing the long game on reader trust.

  45. Came across this looking for something else entirely and ended up reading it through twice, and a look at godzillavskong-movie pulled me deeper into the site than I planned, the writing has a way of holding attention without resorting to manipulative cliffhangers or vague promises that never get delivered later down the page.

  46. Reading this between two meetings turned out to be the highlight of the morning, and a stop at wexfordliteraryartsfestival continued that highlight quality, content that outshines the structured parts of a working day is doing something well beyond ordinary and this site has produced multiple such highlights for me already this week alone.

  47. Now feeling the rare pleasure of trusting a source completely on first encounter, and a look at JustVoteNoon2 extended that initial trust into something more durable, the calibration of trust to evidence is something I do informally and this site has earned high trust through the cumulative weight of multiple consistently good posts already.

  48. Closed the tab and immediately reopened it ten minutes later because I wanted to reread a part, and a stop at engagement-forum drew the same return, content that pulls you back after closing it is doing something well beyond the average and worth marking as exceptional in my mental catalogue of reliable sites.

  49. Well crafted post, the structure flows naturally from one point to the next without forcing transitions, and a stop at torivobondgroup kept the same flow going, you can tell when a writer has thought about how their content reads rather than just what it contains and this is one of those examples.

  50. Reading this in a moment of low energy still kept my attention, and a stop at robinshuteracing continued that engagement under suboptimal conditions, content that survives the reader being tired is content with extra reserves of pull and this site has the kind of writing that holds up even when I am not at my reading best.
