- Associates and family members Scheme to Secure His Release.
Operatives of the Odua Peoples Congress on Tuesday, 3rd August, 2021 apprehended a notorious cult leader, Qudus Balogun popularly called “Ewe,” in the Ita-Opo area of Epe.
As gathered by Eko Hot Blog, Ewe’s arrest sparked widespread jubilation among residents of the community, who have been living under a cloud of terror woven by the notorious cultist and his associates.
He has since been handed over to the men of the Nigerian Police Force at the Epe Divisional Police Department, Oke-Oyinbo.
Sources told Eko Hot Blog that Ewe, the evil genius, who is a member of the Eiye Confraternity, has in recent times been linked to numerous gruesome killings witnessed around Epe and its environs.
According to credible sources, notable instances of his dastardly killings include the murder of a youth known as “OIore” who was killed with an axe left in his head at the Odomola area of Epe. He was also named in the murder of another young man, Doyin Kasali, in the Kasali Oluwo area of Papa, Epe.
Following his arrest, there is an air of optimism that the mindless killings perpetrated by the notorious cultist will be punished under State laws, particularly the recently enacted legislation that outlaws cultism.
However, members of the community who are looking forward to seeing justice served have been taken aback by backhanded schemes spun by his sponsors and family members in a bid to wriggle him away from the long arms of the law.
“It is unfortunate that his family members and some of his associates have started rallying round to secure his release from police custody and back into the society to continue his dastardly acts.”

“Sadly, this has been a major hiccup with security agencies as influential family members in Epe pervert justice in curbing killings and criminal cases in the community. Perpetrators of these acts usually have sponsors who easily get them released after committing these heinous crimes. I can authoritatively inform you that some of his family members and associates are currently making moves to release him from Police custody,” a concerned resident stated.
Several Epe residents who also spoke to Eko Hot Blog on condition of anonymity called on the Lagos State Government and the Nigeria Police to ensure that Ewe is made to face justice for his numerous crimes against humanity.
