The police authorities in Ogun State have raised an alarm over a plot by unlawful cult groups plotting to destroy properties in the state.
Spokesman of the State Police Command in the state, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, in a statement issued on Monday, said the warning followed intelligence reports that the cultists were “planning to mark what they called ‘7/7’ on Wednesday, being 7th of July, 2021.”
He stated that the report “also revealed that the event may result in bloodletting and wanton destruction of properties.”
To prevent a breakdown of law and order, the police spokesman warned those he described as having such devilish intentions to have a rethink and retrace their steps, noting such a move will be met with strong resistance from security agencies.

Similarly, the police authorities vowed to apply the full weight of the law on members of any unlawful societies who intend to use public places to perpetrate evil.
