MARKED FOR DEATH: Village elder beheaded, Chief Priest shot dead

There is tension in Aruogba in  Oredo Local Government Area of Edo State, following the killing of the Chief Priest (Ohen-Ogba) of the community, 81-year-old Pa Clifford Omosomwan, by unknown assailants, penultimate Thursday. The situation is reminiscent of the January 2015 incident which saw the assistant head of the community, Pa Goodluck Uwumahongie, in his 80s, being beheaded during a crisis in the community over  the sale of land.  Over 10 other members of the community also lost their lives to the 2015 incident, while several houses, vehicles and motor cycles were set ablaze.
