Cult Groups Write Ogun Monarch and Ask for Forgiveness

Two cult groups, the Neo Black Movement, also known as Aye, and the Sagamu chapter of the National Association of Airlords (also known as Eiye Confraternity), have apologized in letters to Oba Adewale Ajayi, the Akarigbo of Remoland, and asked for forgiveness for their transgressions.

The two groups, in a viral letter, pleaded for mercy and promised to abide by the laws of the country.

While the letter from the Eiye Confraternity was dated December 22, 2023, that of Aye was dated December 26.

Sagamu had been enmeshed in fatal cult clashes said to have claimed no fewer than 30 lives.

The leadership of the community, in collaboration with police, vigilance groups, the So-Safe Corps as well as Amotekun had formed a task force to deal with the menace.

The Eiye Confraternity in its letter titled, “Letter of Apology,” and signed by “Supreme Most Eiye Confraternity,” read, “We the above-named association of Sagamu chapter, hereby apologise to everyone in the community as we are ready to operate and follow any rules and regulations been laid down by the community to stop any future recurrence.

“We are begging for your forgiveness and to please find a place in your heart to forgive us for the wrongdoings and barbaric acts that had occurred in the past, as it will not repeat itself.

“We are deeply sorry once again; we are all making use of this medium in promising the community that Sagamu shall be peaceful till the end of time.”

Comparably, a portion of the letter from the Neo-Black Movement stated, “We, the aforementioned organization, wish to use this medium to let the community know that we are and will continue to be a peaceful organization.

We would also like to take this opportunity to thank you for your efforts in ensuring that Sagamu and Remo as a whole are peaceful places to live. “Long live Sagamu!”
