    COPS have reportedly arrested two alleged cult members who beheaded their rival and sickeningly played football with his severed head.

    The bombshell update comes almost a year after a video of the barbaric execution in Nigeria went viral, sparking a huge probe.

    Chisom Okafor, 23, was allegedly one of the cult members involved in the beheading

    The disturbing clip showed a group of young men – who are believed to be members of the Ayes cult – attacking another male.

    The victim, who is understood to have been a member of a rival sect, was reportedly shot dead at close range in September last year.

    He is believed to have been murdered at a student’s residence near the Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University in Igbariam.

    The alleged cult members then beheaded the young man, who had his hair styled in dreadlocks, while laughing and joking with one another.

    In another part of the gruesome video, they then kicked the severed head around a square in the capital of Awka while using it as a football.

    Cops have now reportedly arrested two young cultists for their role in the horrific execution-style slaying.

    Footage shows Chisom Okafor, 23, and Ikechukwu Chinweze, 19, shackled as they were questioned by police officers.

    The pair admitted they were members of the Ayes cult and confessed they have participated in several killings.

    Okafor can be heard telling cops: “I’m also known as Stamina.

    “I’m from Igboukwu, but my mum is from Awka. I am 23 years old. I belong to Ayes cult group, and have killed only three people before.”

    He went on to name two of his alleged victims – who were both suspected cult members murdered in 2021 in similar circumstances.

    Both are said to have been found decapitated, according to the Nigerian Daily Post.

    The 23-year-old suspect continued: “I was among the cultists who went to Obj’s place and killed some security men.

    “We were seven in number that went for the operation. I dropped out of school, but I’m a tiler, and I do tiling very well.”

    He also squealed to cops by listing several other members of the Ayes cult who he claims participated in the murders.

    The camera then turns to a scared-looking Chinweze, who keeps his talking to a minimum while being grilled by officers.

    The 19-year-old says: “’I’m Ikechukwu Chinweze, I’m 19 years, from Umuzocha in Awka.

    “I’m a school leaver, I was learning phone repairs before I met Chisom here in Ifite.”

    The baby-faced brutes reportedly confessed to using their victim’s severed head as a ball in wake of their arrests.

    Locals told the media Okafor and Chinweze were behind the brutal murder of the man from a rival cult.

  • Huge update in South Africa club mass poisoning case as blood tests show mystery chemical in 21 teens found dead in bar

    Huge update in South Africa club mass poisoning case as blood tests show mystery chemical in 21 teens found dead in bar

    TRACES of methanol have been discovered in the blood of 21 teens found dead in a club in South Africa last month.

    Officials said they are still probing if the levels of the toxic chemical in the bodies of the teenagers – aged between 13 and 17 – were enough to kill them.

    Cops launched an investigation into the mysterious deaths after an end-of-exams party ended in tragedy at the Enyobeni Tavern on June 26.

    Lifeless bodies were found slumped across tables and couches and collapsed on the dance floor at the popular venue with 21 reported dead with “no visible injuries”.

    Authorities investigating the horror deaths have now confirmed traces of methanol were found in the bodies of the victims.

    Dr. Litha Matiwane, Eastern Cape provincial deputy director for clinical service, said: “Methanol has been detected in all the 21 individuals that were there.

    “However, there is still progressive analysis of the quantitative levels of methanol and whether it could have been the final cause of death.”

    Methanol is a poisonous, odourless liquid often found in illegally produced alcohol – and overexposure can cause death.

    It is yet not known how the youngsters ingested the methanol.

    Police Minister General Bheki Cele said officials are waiting for the final toxicology reports to decide if they will press criminal charges.

    Matiwane said alcohol poisoning and inhalation of carbon monoxide have both been ruled out as possible causes of death – although traces of both were detected in the bodies of all the victims.

    The owner of Enyobeni tavern and some employees were arrested.

    They were released on bail as facing charges related to the violation of alcohol trading laws – including the sale of alcohol to children.

    South African President Cyril Ramaphosa spoke at a mass funeral for the teens and vowed to take action to stop alcohol being served to children under the age of 18.

    Devastated locals have called for the tavern to be closed down.

    A 17-year-old girl living nearby, who only gave her name as “Lolly”, said: “Everyone wants it closed down because they sell alcohol to under-age children.

    “Everyone is angry, everyone is sad because of what happened.”

    The incident shares eerie similarities with the Throb nightclub disaster that happened in March 2000.

    A detonation of a teargas canister at the Throb nightclub in Chatsworth, South Africa, resulted in a stampede which subsequently led to the death of 13 children.

    Another 100 were injured while the youngest victim was 11 years old.

    The club was filled with 600 children aged 11-14 celebrating the end of term.
