Over 100 individuals in Edo State have publicly renounced their affiliation with various cult groups, following a mass ceremony led by Governor Monday Okpebholo. Okpebholo warned those who refuse to abandon cultism that his administration will not show them mercy, as cultism has been a major cause of killings, kidnapping, and armed robbery in Edo.
The governor's administration has offered rehabilitation opportunities to those seeking to leave cultism and has vowed to target cult-related buildings and support security agencies in their efforts to combat violent crimes. The state has seen a drastic reduction in cult-related killings since taking office, with incidents now almost nonexistent.
