Over the past three months, this gang has been a menace, snatching over ten cars at gunpoint and terrorizing residents enjoying the nightlife in the GRA II axis.

The gang was led by Chukwumela Imela, infamously known as “Boy Satan.” A recidivist with a criminal history that includes cultism and armed robbery, Imela has been imprisoned four times.
On Boy satan: From cultism to car snatching
He and his childhood friend, Precious Adiele, joined the Iceland cult group in 2009. Imela’s ruthless nature in dealing with both rivals and allies earned him his fearsome nickname.
In 2022, a dispute over loot sharing led Imela to leave the Iceland cult group and join a rival faction, ‘La Mendians Bobos.’
To mark his defection, he brutally murdered his friend Adiele with a machete in his residence, boasting that he was not afraid to harm even his family to prove a point.
The police have recovered two more cars from the gang as investigations continue to recover other stolen vehicles and apprehend the remaining gang members.

Lauretta Onochie, a special assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on social media, made this known on her Twitter page on Tuesday, April 27.
Onochie revealed that the cultists, numbering about 30, were said to have been operating for the Nigerian Black Axe mafia syndicate.
