The ugly incident commenced on December 7, 2014.
Muhammed, the Muslim Leader

Speaking with Ika weekly reporter, the Pastor incharge of the church (Grace of God Ministries) at Idunmesah, Pastor Henry Nnamdi stated  that he was recently transferred to Idumuesah, adding that he learnt that the crisis between the Christians and Muslims in Idumuesah community started some months ago as a result of a farm land which one of the Muslim leaders, Muhammed  sold to the Christians when Pastor Chukwuka Dibie was incharge of the ministry's branch. He disclosed that the Assistant Pastor of the church, Mr. Akowa Richard was the one who issued payment for the land to the Muslim Leader and signed on behalf of the church members.
The Land

Speaking further, the Pastor disclosed that the persisted when Muhammed went to remove a stick that was used in demarcating the land between the boundaries thereby reducing the length and width of the land. According to him when Mr. Akowa Richard and entire church saw what Isa did when they went to fence the land. As such, they decided that Isa must refund the money  paid to him which he refused to refund.  So, on Sunday December 7, 2014 we were in the some men walked in and demanded to see our Assistant Pastor, Mr. Akowa Richard and his family. we never knew that they were sent by Isa to  assassinate them. Immediately they left  the church premises to  Akowa’s house, fortunately enough they did not meet anybody at home, but all they did was to scatter all the properties and belongings of Mr. Akowa. Obviously speaking, they were lucky to escape the attack because, one of their family members heared Isa and other Muslims discussing and planning on how to kill them and came to inform them. As I talk to you, the entire members of Akowa Richard include, Mary his Wife and five children are nowhere to be found as they have run for their dear lives from the evil penetrators. Before the problems  got to this extent,  one of the sons of  Mr. Akowa’s children,  Israel came to my house to seek for my permission if he should  take action over the oppression and unlawful act of Muhammed. As a man of God, all i did was to counsel him, prayed for him  and above all, I advised him not to revenge,  rather,  he should leave the battle for God to fight.
The Church Building

As at the time of filling this report, the entire family of Mr. Akowa Richard are nowhere to found. They said that they will not stop destroying the people's properties until Mr. Akowa Richard and  his children are  murdered.

In what could best be described as a re-ignited war between two deadly cult groups; Black Axe Movement and Arrow Baga, two members of the latter group have been gruesomely murdered by members of the Black Axe Movement on December, 18, 2017. 

Sources revealed that the victims, Mr. Frank Osakwe and Mr. Marvin Agholar were major actors in a deadly clash between the two groups which resulted in the death of a member of the Black Axe Movement about four years ago. The incident which occurred on April 14, 2014 resulted in the abscondment of several members of the cult group including, Lucky Ibeakam, Chris Memeh, Frank Osakwe and Marvin Agholor, who were declared wanted by the police. 
However, thinking that the dust had settled culprits, Frank Osakwe and Marvin Agholor decided to return home to pick up their lives from the scratch, sources revealed, not knowing it would cost them their lives. 
On December 17, 2017 a trace was called between the rival groups where the victims were slated to offer some restitution to Arrow Baga cult for killing their member in 2014. According to a sources and member of the Black Axe Movement who pleaded anonymity stated that little did they know that the peace meeting was a perfect employed by the Arrow Baga cult to get revenge for the death of their member. Immediately they arrived the location for the meeting, Arrow Baga members who were strategically hidden in the nearby bush surface, shooting sporadically at us, Frank Osakwe and Marvin Agholor who were their main targets got fired upon several times and died on the spot, while several other members of our group sustained bullet wounds.”
The police have since swung into action to curtail the highly tense atmosphere that has enveloped the town and notorious members of both cult group have scampered away to safety for fear of reprisal attacks as the feud goes on.

   All is not well at the moment for the eldest son of the late leader of Evil Temple secret cult,Onyeka Sunday as members of the cult have threatened to kill him if he refused to succeed his father,Chief Sunday Okoh.Chief Okoh,a popular cult leader who passed on,January 5,2014 was before his transition,the foremost leader of Evil Temple Brotherhood,a leading cult group in Delta State.
   Our reporters reliably gathered that Okoh during his life time contributed immensely towards the growth of the Evil Temple,hence,the cult members wants his only son,Onyeka to succeed him.
  It was also gathered Onyeka being a devoted Christian blatantly refused to be a cultist,saying that as a practicing Christian he is not going to offend God by joining a secret cult.
   However,all members of the cult are not happy with Onyeka's decision not to join them,boasting that they are going to kill him.The development has made Onyeka to  run away from home even when his late father has not been buried.


    While Onyeka is running for his dear life,the Evident Temple members have started to  besiege his late father's house vowing not to live until Onyeka returns to them.Efforts by the members and friends of the Okoh family to settle the rift has proved abortive as the cult members threatens to eliminate anyone who poses as a hindrance to them.
   Some of the persons who spoke on the issue condemned the attitude of the cult members,advising that Onyeka should leave the town and seek refuge elsewhere.
   Our reporters made attempts to hear  comments from Onyeka, unfortunately,he was not around to grant interview.All phone calls and text messages sent to him his phone were not responded to.When our crew visited the home of the Okoh family no one was available in the house except the Evil Temple members who have now converted the building to become their own
