They were nabbed during a raid of Alaba Rago Market by operatives attached to Okoko Police Division on Saturday afternoon.

He states that the suspects were openly selling Indian hemp.

Besides the suspects, Elkana says six others were held for alleged cultism at about 10:30 am by policemen attached to Area ‘J’ Command in connection with a clash that left four persons dead at Ajah, Lagos, on April 14.

“The clash left four Aye cultists dead. Axes and jack knives, which they used during the clash, were recovered from them. Four suspects were earlier arrested and charged to court in connection with the incident, bringing the number of suspects arrested to 10.

“The Homicide Section of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department (SCIID), Panti, Yaba, Lagos is investigating the case and the suspects will be arraigned,” he says.
