Photo Of Councillorship Candidate Hacked To Death In Supremacy Battle Between Black Axe and KKK Cult Groups In Calabar.

A suspected cult leader was hacked to death due
to a battle for supremacy between rival cult
groups, Black Axe and KKK, in Calabar, Cross
River State, at the weekend.
It was gathered that the cult leader, popularly
known as Daniel One, D1, was killed on Saturday,
close to his home by Fenton Street, Calabar South
council area of the state capital.
A source who spoke with Vanguard, disclosed
that Daniel was a PDP councillorship candidate in
Ward 8 at the suspended Cross River council poll,
which was scheduled for the last week of March.
The source said Daniel was trailed by three
persons on a tricycle as he was returning home
at about 8.00 pm and butchered with machetes.
“His assailants ensured he died on the spot
before zooming off, which has been the tradition
of cult groups in the city of late to avoid him
surviving and coming after them,”
Spokesperson of the state police command, DSP
Irene Ugbo, who confirmed the killing, said no
arrest has been made.
“Our anti cultism team is aware of the incident
and investigations are in progress” said Ugbo.
