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.”









Solid quality, the kind of work that holds up to a careful read rather than a quick skim, and a quick look at learnfromexpertinsights 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.
Found this through a friend who recommended it and now I see why, and a look at discovernewdirections only strengthened that recommendation in my own mind, word of mouth still works for content that actually delivers and this site is clearly earning recommendations the old fashioned way through quality rather than marketing.
Decided this was the kind of site I would defend in a discussion about good blog content, and a stop at exploreprofessionaldevelopment reinforced that, very few sites earn active defence rather than passive consumption and this one has clearly crossed that threshold for me without needing any explicit pitch from the writers themselves either.
Reading this post made me realise I had been settling for lower quality elsewhere, and a look at flexibledigitalshopping extended that recalibration, content that exposes how much I had been accepting in adjacent sources is content with calibrating effect on my standards and this site is performing that calibration function across topics for me reliably.
Now noticing that the post never raised its voice even when making a strong point, and a look at modernbuyingstore continued that calm volume, content that can make important points without resorting to typographic emphasis or emotional appeal is content that trusts its substance to do the work and this site has that confidence consistently.
Started smiling at one paragraph because the writing was just nice, and a look at securestrategicbonds 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.
Reading this confirmed a small detail I had been uncertain about, and a stop at easydigitalretail provided the source for further checking, content that supports verification through citations or links rather than just asserting facts is more trustworthy and this site has clearly built its credibility through that kind of verifiable approach consistently.
A satisfying piece in the way that good meals are satisfying rather than just filling, and a look at digitalbuyingexperience extended that satisfaction, the metaphor between content and meals is one I find useful and this site reads as a satisfying meal rather than the empty calories that most content provides for casual readers.
The depth of coverage felt about right for the format, neither shallow nor overwhelming, and a look at corporatecollaborationnetwork 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.
Thanks for taking the time to write this, it is clear that some thought went into how each point would land, and after I went through reliabledealshoppingplace I had a better grip on the topic, real value without the usual marketing noise people have to put up with online when searching for answers.
Decided I would read the archives over the weekend, and a stop at explorefuturepossibilities confirmed that the archives would be worth the time, very few sites have archives I would actively read through but this one has earned that level of interest based on the consistent quality across what I have sampled so far.
A well calibrated piece that knew its scope and stayed inside it, and a look at clicktofindstrategicoptions maintained the same scope discipline, scope creep is one of the failure modes of long blog posts and this site has clearly invested in the editorial discipline to prevent it which shows up in tightly contained pieces.
Felt the writer was speaking my language without trying to imitate it, and a look at balancedtrust continued that natural fit, when a writers default voice happens to match what you find easy to read the experience feels frictionless and that is something I notice and remember about specific sites going forward.
Left me wanting to read more rather than feeling burned out, that is a good sign, and a look at clicktolearnstrategically confirmed there is plenty more here to explore, the kind of writing that builds appetite rather than killing it which is a rare quality on the modern open internet today across most categories of content.
Picked a single sentence from this post to remember, and a look at growwithinformedchoices 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.
Closed three other tabs to focus on this one and never opened them again, and a stop at trustedmarketrelationship similarly held attention exclusively, content that crowds out other reading from working memory is content with real density and this site has demonstrated that density across multiple pages I have visited so far this morning.
Now wishing I had found this site sooner, and a look at discoveractionableideas extended that mild regret, the calculation of how many years of good content I missed by not finding the right sources earlier is one I try not to make too often but it does come up sometimes when I find sites this good.
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 urbanretailshoppingzone reflected the same discipline, brevity is generosity in disguise and this site has clearly figured that out far better than most blog operations have.
Bookmark moved to my permanent reference folder rather than the casual maybe later folder, and a look at learnandscaleintelligently earned the same upgrade, the distinction between casual interest and lasting reference is something I track carefully and very few sites cross that threshold but this one did so without much effort apparently.
Started forming counter examples to test the claims and the post handled most of them implicitly, and a look at collaborativegrowthnetwork continued that anticipatory style, writers who think two steps ahead of the critical reader save themselves from a lot of follow up work and this writer has clearly internalised that habit consistently.
Worth flagging this site to a few specific friends who would appreciate the editorial sensibility, and a look at discovernewbusinesspaths 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.
Felt the writer was speaking my language without trying to imitate it, and a look at createbetteroutcomes continued that natural fit, when a writers default voice happens to match what you find easy to read the experience feels frictionless and that is something I notice and remember about specific sites going forward.
Really appreciate that the writer did not overstate the importance of the topic to make the post feel weightier, and a quick visit to buildyourstrategicfuture maintained the same modest framing, content that is honest about its own scope rather than inflating itself is the kind I trust and return to repeatedly over time.
Took a screenshot of one section to come back to later, and a stop at zenvaxo prompted another saved tab, the urge to capture and revisit specific pieces of content is something I rarely feel but when I do it tells me the work is worth more than the average passing read for sure.
Recommended without hesitation if you care about careful coverage of this topic, and a stop at globalenterprisebonds reinforced the recommendation, the bar I set for unhesitating recommendations is fairly high and this site has cleared it through the cumulative weight of multiple consistently good pieces rather than through any single standout post which is meaningful.
Found the writing surprisingly fresh for what is by now a well covered topic, and a stop at fastbuyingoutlet kept that freshness going across the related pages, original perspective on familiar ground is hard to come by and this site has clearly earned its place in the conversation rather than just rehashing old ideas.
Picked this site to mention to a colleague who would benefit, and a look at securemarketbuyingplace added more material I will pass along, recommending sites to colleagues is a higher bar than recommending to friends because the professional context demands more careful curation and this site cleared the professional bar without me having to think.
However selective I am about new bookmarks this one made it past my filter, and a look at globalenterprisebonds confirmed the bookmark was worth the slot, the precious slots in my permanent bookmark folder are difficult to earn and this site earned one without making me think twice about whether the slot was justified by the quality.
Without overstating it this is a quietly excellent post, and a look at enterprisevaluealliances extended that quiet excellence, content that earns superlatives without demanding them through marketing language is content that has truly earned them through the substance and this site has clearly produced work in that earned excellence category today.
Glad I clicked through from where I did because this turned out to be worth the time spent, and after sustainablebusinesspartnerships I had a fuller picture, the kind of content that earns its visitors through delivering value rather than chasing them through aggressive advertising or constant pop ups appearing everywhere on the screen lately.
Looking back on this reading session it stands as one of the better ones recently, and a look at globalbusinessrelationshiphub extended that ranking, the informal ranking of reading sessions against each other is something I do mentally and this session ranks high largely because of this site and a couple of related pages here.
Liked that there was nothing performative about the writing, and a stop at trustedcorporateconnections continued that genuine quality, performative writing tries to be witnessed rather than read and the difference between performance and substance is huge for the careful reader and this site has clearly chosen substance every time clearly.
Came in expecting another generic take and got something with actual character instead, and a look at clicktoexploreideas carried that personality forward, finding a distinct voice on a saturated topic is impressive and worth pointing out when it happens because most sites end up sounding identical to their nearest competitors quickly.
Started reading and ended an hour later without realising the time had passed, and a look at globalbusinessrelationshiphub produced the same time dilation effect, when content makes time feel different the writer has achieved something well beyond the average and this site is producing that experience for me reliably across multiple readings.
Honestly slowed down to read this carefully which is not my default, and a look at businessrelationshipnetwork kept me in that careful reading mode, the kind of writing that demands attention by being worth attention is rare in a media environment full of content engineered to be skimmed not read with any real focus today.
The pacing of the post was just right, never rushed and never dragged out unnecessarily, and a look at bondedcompass maintained the same rhythm, you can tell the writer has experience because the difficult skill of pacing is something only practiced writers manage to handle well in long form content over time and across formats.
The lack of unnecessary jargon made the post accessible without sacrificing accuracy, and a look at discovernewbusinesspaths continued in the same accessible style, technical topics often hide behind specialised vocabulary but here the writer trusts the reader to keep up with plain language and that trust pays off nicely throughout the entire post.
Well crafted post, the structure flows naturally from one point to the next without forcing transitions, and a stop at securecommercialalliances 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.
Worth recognising that the post handled a familiar topic without reaching for any of the obvious hot takes, and a stop at explorelongtermopportunities continued that fresh treatment, sites that find new angles on subjects others have exhausted are sites worth following carefully and this one has clearly developed that exploratory instinct through patient practice.
Closed three other tabs to focus on this one and never opened them again, and a stop at clicktofindstrategicoptions similarly held attention exclusively, content that crowds out other reading from working memory is content with real density and this site has demonstrated that density across multiple pages I have visited so far this morning.
Now adjusting my mental list of reliable sites for this topic, and a stop at modernshoppingecosystem reinforced the adjustment, the small ongoing curation work of maintaining trusted sources is one of the actual practical activities of careful reading and this site has earned a permanent place on my list for this particular subject.
Vague feelings of recognition kept surfacing as I read because the writing names things I have been thinking, and a look at globalshoppinginfrastructure produced more of those recognition moments, content that gives shape to private intuitions is content that makes me feel less alone in my own thinking and this site has that effect.
Genuinely good work, the kind that holds up over multiple readings without losing its appeal, and a stop at clicktoadvanceknowledge kept that going, definitely a site I will be returning to and probably mentioning to others who work in or care about this particular area of interest today and in coming weeks.
Decided to read more before commenting and the more I read the more I wanted to say something, and a stop at professionaltrustalliances pushed that impulse further, when content provokes the urge to participate rather than just consume it is doing something quite specific and worth recognising clearly when it happens during reading.
Now adding the writer to a small mental list of voices I want to follow, and a look at trusteddealstore reinforced that follow intention, the few writers whose work I actively track are writers who have demonstrated sustained quality and this writer has clearly demonstrated that sustained quality across the pieces I have sampled here today.
Now recognising that the post handled the topic with appropriate technical precision without becoming dry, and a stop at businessgrowthpartnerships continued that balance, technical precision and readability are often in tension and this site has clearly figured out how to maintain both at once which is one of the harder editorial achievements in the form.
Worth saying this site reads better than most paid newsletters I have tried, and a stop at globalretailcommercehub confirmed that comparison, the bar for free content is often lower than for paid but this site clears the paid bar consistently and that says something about the editorial approach behind the work being published here regularly.
In the middle of an otherwise scattered day this post landed as a moment of focus, and a stop at smartbuyingcorner extended that focused feeling across more pages, content that anchors a fragmented day rather than contributing to the fragmentation is content with real centring effect and this site is providing that anchoring function for me.
A particular kind of restraint shows up in the writing, and a look at valuebasedshoppingonline maintained the same restraint across pages, knowing what not to say is just as important as knowing what to say and this site has clearly developed strong instincts on both sides of that editorial line throughout pieces I have read.
Well structured and easy to read, that combination is rarer than people think, and a stop at clicktofindclarity confirmed the same standard runs across the rest of the site, definitely the kind of place I will be coming back to when this topic comes up in conversation later again over the weeks ahead.
