and killings in the area.
When contacted for comments, the Delta State Commissioner of
Police, CP Mohammed Hafiz Inuwa confirmed the arrests of the suspects in a
telephone chat with Our Correspondent in Warri.
In his words, “They were actually arrested because of the
cult crisis going on.
“So, I felt I should send a team to go and bring the menace
down and deal with the problems of cultism, we are not going to relent.
“We will continue our war against these cultists because, a
situation whereby they take delight in injuring themselves, to the extent of
even waging war against themselves, killing themselves, I will not tolerate
that.
“All I know is that arrests were made and off course
investigation will continue and recoveries might be made. But as I speak with
you, I have not heard anything as regards recovery of weapons.
