She added that two suspected cult members, who were part of a gang disrupting the peace of the state and had been on police wanted list, were arrested on Sunday.

The command’s spokesperson said the arrested cult members were among the people that caused mayhem in the state a few weeks ago.

Opalola, however, said the suspects would be charged to court at the end of investigation.
