Churches in Ikorodu have stopped holding services which extend into the night as well as night vigils for fear of being attacked by the badoo cult.
The Resident Pastor of Divine Anchor Ministries, Offin, Igbogbo, Mathew Odeniyi, said they had cancelled all vigils and church programmes extending beyond 9pm.
“Even though we are protected by the Most High, as true believers of the word of God, we must not also fail to use our initiative when the need arises.
“In the face of growing tension across Ikorodu at the moment, following the onslaught of Badoo; as a church, we felt it would be wise to suspend all late night programmes, including Friday vigils until the situation improves.
“All our meetings and activities have been limited to daytime so as to keep ourselves safe and not become easy targets for miscreants.”
Yemi, a top member of a church in the Adamo area of Ikorodu, said Friday vigils and other programmes running beyond 8:00pm had also been cancelled for now due to security fears.
“The church leadership has ordered all programmes to end by 8:00pm because of the security situation.”
Apart from this, people are leaving Ikorodu communities in droves because of the security situation. It's believed that traditional leaders in the area are behind the killings.
