Four persons were killed during a
clash by two rival cult groups in Ondo town at the weekend.
Two of the cultists
were, however, apprehended by the police.
It was gathered that the cult groups may have
belonged to a political party.
Dependable source said that the
bloody clash ensued when supporters of a chieftain of the party in the town who
openly defected to another party before the last governorship election wanted
to return and were rebuffed.
This reportedly led to a bloody
clash and dangerous weapons were freely used by the two warring groups.
It was also learnt that the clash started at the party
secretariat and spread to different locations in Ondo.
