Confirming the statement, residents cried out that the cultists are requesting for the sum of N500,000 as ransom for peace to reign.
The Community Development Committee (CDC) Chairman in Owube, Mr. Anthony Osoi, said the community was in dire need of intervention from the government and security agencies.

He said: “The intervention of government is what we need in this community. The cultists threatened that if we don’t give them N500, 000, they will chase us out of our community.
Recently, those boys wrote a letter and dropped in the community that if we don’t pay them, we will pack out of the community.”
Chairman of the Local Government Area, Mr. Hope Ikiriko, during a visit was shocked after he heard the sad tales of the people and was surprised to hear further lamentations of the traumatised people.
Ikiriko said that his administration was not aware of most of the things disturbing the people noting that the development called for concern and he assured that the problem would be nipped into the bud.
He urged the community to compile the names of the cultists observing that none of the boys in the area had been declared wanted by the government.
