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. Picked this post to share in a Slack channel where I knew it would be appreciated, and a look at harborbazaar suggested I will share more from here later, content worth sharing into a professional context is content that has earned a higher kind of trust than mere personal interest and this site has it.

  2. Adding this to my list of go to references for the topic, and a stop at seavendor confirmed the rest of the site deserves the same, definitely the kind of resource that earns its place rather than getting forgotten the moment the next interesting article shows up in my feed somewhere else on the web.

  3. Yesterday I was complaining about the state of online writing and today this site has temporarily fixed that complaint, and a look at notepadnest 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.

  4. The depth of coverage felt about right for the format, neither shallow nor overwhelming, and a look at glintgarden kept that calibration going, getting the depth right for blog format is genuinely difficult because too shallow loses experts and too deep loses beginners but this site nailed it nicely which I really do appreciate.

  5. Reading this between meetings turned out to be the most useful thing I did all afternoon, and a stop at linenvendorcorner kept that productivity feeling going, content can sometimes outperform actual work in terms of what gets accomplished mentally and this site managed that today which is genuinely a high bar to clear consistently.

  6. Pleasant surprise, the post delivered more than the headline promised, and a stop at violetvend continued that pattern of under promising and over delivering, the rarest combination on the modern web where most content does the opposite by promising the world and delivering thin recycled summaries instead each time you click on something interesting.

  7. Looking for similar voices elsewhere has come up empty in my recent searches, and a stop at fieldfind extended the search frustration, the rare site that does what no other does in quite the same way is precious and this one has clearly developed a particular approach that I have not been able to find duplicates of.

  8. A piece that reads as if the writer trusted readers to fill in obvious gaps, and a look at threepanel continued that respectful approach, content that does not over explain what the reader can infer is content that respects intelligence and this site has clearly chosen to write to capable readers rather than to the lowest common denominator.

  9. Found this via a link from another piece I was reading and the click was worth it, and a stop at silvercrate extended the value across more material, the open web still rewards clicking through citations when the underlying writers care about each other work and this site clearly belongs to that network.

  10. Started smiling at one paragraph because the writing was just nice, and a look at windwarehouse produced a couple more such moments, prose that produces small spontaneous reactions in the reader is doing more than just transferring information and the writers here are clearly hitting that level fairly consistently throughout pieces.

  11. Reading this on a difficult day was a small bright spot, and a stop at purepavilion extended that brightness, content that improves a hard day is content that has earned a particular kind of place in my reading habits and this site is occupying that uplifting role for me today which I appreciate clearly.

  12. Pass this along to anyone you know dealing with similar questions, the answers here are clear, and a stop at zephyrvendor adds even more useful material, this is the kind of resource that deserves to circulate widely rather than getting lost in the constant churn of new content online that buries good work daily.

  13. Solid quality, the kind of work that holds up to a careful read rather than a quick skim, and a quick look at labelloom kept that standard going strong, content that rewards attention rather than punishing it is something I appreciate more and more these days online across nearly every topic I follow.

  14. Thanks for the clean writing, no broken sentences and no awkward translations like some other sites have, and a quick stop at serumstation kept that polish going nicely, it really does make a difference when a reader can move through a page without tripping on every line or going back to reread.

  15. If patience for careful reading is rare these days finding sites that reward it is rarer still, and a stop at mossbazaar extended that rare reward, the diminishing returns on shallow content reading have made me more selective about where to spend reading time and this site is meeting the higher selectivity bar consistently.

  16. Now noticing how rare it is to find a site that does not feel rushed, and a look at whitenoisewonder extended that calm pace, content produced without time pressure has a different quality than content shipped to meet a deadline and this site reads as written without urgency which produces a different and better experience for readers.

  17. Took something from this I did not expect to find, and a stop at fieldcrate added another unexpected useful piece, content that exceeds expectations rather than just meeting them is the kind that builds enthusiasm and earns repeat visits without any explicit ask from the writer or platform behind the work being read.

  18. Reading this slowly in the morning before opening email, and a stop at graniteaisle extended that protected attention, content that earns the prime morning reading slot before the daily distractions begin is content with elevated status and this site has earned that prime slot consistently in my recent reading habits clearly.

  19. If you scroll past this site without looking carefully you will miss something, and a stop at worldshipper extended that mild warning, the surface of the site does not advertise its quality loudly which means careful attention is required to recognise what is being offered here which is itself a kind of editorial signal.

  20. Better than most of the writing I have come across on this topic recently, simpler and more direct, and a look at orlavive continued in that same way, a real outlier in a crowded space full of repetitive content that says little while taking up a lot of reader time today which is unfortunate.

  21. 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 warehousewave reflected the same discipline, brevity is generosity in disguise and this site has clearly figured that out far better than most blog operations have.

  22. Now feeling slightly more committed to my own careful reading practices having read this, and a stop at valecrate reinforced that commitment, content that models the kind of attention it deserves is content that calibrates the reader and this site has clearly raised my own bar for what to bring to good writing today.

  23. Genuinely well crafted writing, the kind that makes the topic look easier than it actually is, and a look at lightandlamp added even more depth, you can feel the experience behind every line which is something only writers who have been at this for a while can pull off with this level of grace.

  24. Glad to find a site whose links lead somewhere worth going rather than back to itself for SEO juice, and a stop at quickcrate kept that generous outbound feel, citing other peoples work with real respect rather than just for ranking signals is a sign of an honest operation worth supporting going forward.

  25. Reading this prompted me to dig out an old reference book related to the topic, and a stop at springvendor extended that connection to other sources, content that connects me back to my own existing knowledge rather than asking me to forget it is content with continuity and this site has that continuous quality.

  26. Glad I stumbled across this post, the explanations actually make sense without needing background knowledge to follow along, and after a stop at gingerbazaar the same was true there, no assumptions about the reader just clear writing that anyone can understand from the first line right through to the end.

  27. If quality blog writing is dying as people sometimes claim then this site is one piece of evidence that it has not died yet, and a look at windcrate extended that evidence, the broader cultural question about online writing has empirical answers in specific sites and this one is contributing to a more optimistic answer overall.

  28. Reading this gave me a small sense of progress on a topic I have been slowly working through, and a stop at longtermalliances added another step forward, learning happens in small increments across many sources and finding sources that consistently contribute is the actual practical value of careful curation in an information rich world.

  29. Came away with some new perspectives I had not considered before, and after ringrivulet those ideas felt more complete, the kind of content that stays with you a little while after reading rather than slipping out the moment you switch tabs and move on with your day to whatever comes next.

  30. I learned more from this short post than from longer articles I read earlier today, and a stop at brookaisle added even more useful detail without going off topic, this site clearly knows how to keep things focused without sacrificing depth which is a hard balance to strike for any writer.

  31. Came away with some new perspectives I had not considered before, and after melvora those ideas felt more complete, the kind of content that stays with you a little while after reading rather than slipping out the moment you switch tabs and move on with your day to whatever comes next.

  32. Felt the writer was being honest with the reader which is rare enough that I want to acknowledge it, and a look at larnix continued that honest feel, content built on actual knowledge rather than aggregated summaries is something I value highly and rarely come across in regular searches on the open internet these days.

  33. A genuine pleasure to find a site that publishes at a sustainable cadence rather than chasing the daily content treadmill, and a look at lilyluxe confirmed the careful publication rhythm, sites that prioritise quality over frequency are rare and this one has clearly chosen the slower pace which I appreciate as a reader.

  35. Found something new in here that I had not seen explained this way before, and a quick stop at yardcart expanded the idea even further, the kind of writing that nudges your thinking forward a bit without forcing the issue is exactly what I look for online today and rarely actually find anywhere.

  36. Really nice to see things explained without overcomplicating the topic, the words flow naturally and stay easy to follow, and a short visit to fetchbay only added to that experience because the same simple approach is used across the rest of the page too without any change in tone.

  37. Closed and reopened the tab three times before finally finishing, and a stop at quistly held my attention straight through, sometimes content fights for time against my own distraction and the times it wins say something positive about its quality and this post clearly won that fight today afternoon for me.

  38. Refreshing change from the usual sites covering this topic, no clickbait and no padding, and a stop at canyoncart confirmed the difference, this place clearly has its own voice rather than copying the formulas everyone else uses to chase clicks online which is becoming increasingly rare these days across nearly every popular subject.

  39. Now considering whether the post would translate well into a different form, and a look at fixforge suggested similar versatility, content that could move into other media without losing its substance is content that has been built around ideas rather than around format and this site reads as idea first throughout posts.

  40. A clear cut above the usual noise on the subject, and a look at schemaatelier only made that gap wider in my view, the kind of place that earns its visitors through quality rather than through aggressive marketing or sponsored placements which is increasingly the only way most sites stay afloat across the modern web.

  41. A piece that exhibited the kind of patience that good writing requires, and a look at uplora continued that patient quality, hurried writing is easy to spot and this site reads as having been written without time pressure which produces a different feel than the rushed content that dominates much of the modern blog space.

  42. Better signal to noise ratio than most places I check on this kind of topic, and a look at jeweldepot kept that going, every paragraph here carries something worth reading rather than padding out the page to hit some arbitrary length target that search engines reward but readers ignore as soon as they notice it.

  43. Genuinely useful read, the points are practical and easy to apply right away, and a quick look at quartoa confirmed that this site is consistent in that approach, looking forward to digging through the rest of it when I get the chance to sit down properly later in the week or this weekend.

  44. Useful read, especially because the writer did not assume too much background from the reader, and a quick look at starrack continued in the same way, a thoughtful site that meets people where they are which is something the modern web could use a lot more of for both casual and serious readers.

  45. Now appreciating that the post did not try to imitate any other style I might recognise, and a stop at shoremarket continued that distinct voice, content with its own register rather than borrowed from elsewhere is content with real authorial presence and this site has clearly developed that presence through what feels like patient editorial work.

  46. Liked the post enough to read it twice and the second read found new things, and a stop at nooklily similarly rewarded the second look, content with hidden depths that only reveal themselves on careful rereading is the rare kind that earns lasting respect rather than fleeting first impressions only briefly held.

  47. If I had to summarise the editorial sensibility of this site in a few words it would be careful and human, and a look at sunnyshipment extended that summary feeling, capturing the essence of a sites approach in brief is hard but this site has a clear enough identity that the summary comes naturally enough.

  48. Cuts through the usual marketing fluff that dominates this topic online, and a stop at breezevendor kept the same clean approach going, this is the kind of writing that respects the reader’s time rather than wasting it on repetitive setups before finally getting to the point at hand which is what most sites do.

  49. Came here from another site and ended up exploring much further than I planned, and a look at floralvendor only encouraged more exploration, the kind of place where one click leads to another not through manipulative design but through genuinely interesting content is rare and worth highlighting when found like this somewhere on the open internet.

  50. Worth a quiet moment of recognition for the consistency I have noticed across multiple posts, and a stop at nearbyneeds continued that consistent quality, sites that maintain quality across many pieces rather than peaking on one viral post are sites with real editorial discipline and this one has clearly developed that discipline carefully.
