Tension hovers around the Ojo area of Lagos State following the killing of a suspected cult gang leader in the area at the weekend.

The deceased, simply identified as Shulee, was said to be the number two man of the Eiye confraternity in the area.

A resident who refused to be named for fear of being tracked said: “Shulee is the number two man of Eiye in Ojo. His activities had been notorious. He did not look back when killing rival gang members. He was feared in the entire Ojo, Okomaiko and Ajangbadi areas.

“There has been tension in the entire Ojo since his death was announced. The leaders of the Alaba International Market have advised traders not to stay outside late.”

Another source alleged that the deceased was tracked down to an area around Alaba Rago and that he was eventually killed around PPL bus stop.

Since his killing, there have been several notices in social media warning residents not to stay outside their houses late.

The Lagos State police spokesman, Benjamin Hundeyin, said, “I am not aware of any such killing and there is no tension anywhere in the state.”
