Some Lagosians residing Agege area have taken to social media to express their worries over the reemergence of some group of cultists known as “Awawa boys” in their community. In the past, the so-called Awawa Boys terrorized residents, killed and robbed many of their valuables. However, the intervention of the Lagos State Police command helped to curb their excess as many of them were apprehended.
Reports have now confirmed that the dreaded cult group has now resumed its illegal activities.
See the reactions of some residents below.
