A yet-to-be-identified 100-level student of the Ignatius Ajuru University of Education, Rumuolumeni, in Rivers State, was reportedly shot on campus on Wednesday by suspected cultists.
PUNCH Metro reports that this came 48 hours after rival cult groups said to be in a supremacy battle went on a shooting spree, precisely on Monday, causing tension within the campus.
Monday’s clash, it was gathered, was between suspected members of the Vikings and Ku Klux Klan cult groups.
Though details on the latest incident were sketchy as of the time of filing this report, a source close to the victim told newsmen that the student was rushed to a hospital, where efforts were being made to perform surgery to remove bullet pellets lodged in his body.
The source, who neither disclosed his name nor the identity of the victim due to the sensitive nature of the issue, added, “His close friends were contributing money to raise funds for the surgery to happen.”
