DAILY POST learnt, the rival cult groups, suspected to be members of Eiye Confraternity and Vikings, reportedly in a shootout for several hours.
The incident led to the abrupt closure of all commercial activities as traders and business owners in the community closed shops to avoid being victims of looters who may want to cash out in the melee.
