Reports indicate that two people were killed in separate cult-related attacks, sparking fear among residents in the affected communities. The police confirmed that officers have been deployed to the areas to maintain order and prevent further violence.
Authorities also said no arrests have been made yet, but investigations are ongoing to track down those responsible and curb rising cult activities in parts of Lagos.
