Lagos: Ikorodu leaders reportedly dare Ambode, police, announce 10-day curfew ritual
The ritual is called “Oro”.
Community leaders of Gberigbe in the Ikorodu axis of Lagos will reportedly commence one on Thursday.
Anyone, especially, caught roaming the streets during the “Oro” could be killed sacrificed to the gods.
Residents are reportedly circulating the following message about the curfew:
“This is to inform the general public that the Gberigbe Community announces the commencement of ‘Oro’ activity at Gberigbe and its environs from Thursday, May 4 to 13 2017 at different times both day light and nights.
“According to them, the activity is to ward off the imminent invasion of their Community by a syndicate popularly referred to as ‘BADOO’.
“Please be carefully if you must pass through the axis especially females.”
Meanwhile, Governor Ambode told Lagos monarchs the state would not tolerate attempts to curb freedom of movement.
