Tragedy struck on Monday when a 16-year-old boy, identified simply as Mustapha, was killed by a stray bullet during a suspected cult clash in the Oyingbo area of Ebute Metta, Lagos State.

It was learnt that the incident occurred during a peace walk organised by some youths to address rising cult-related violence in the community.

It was gathered that the walk had just concluded when an argument broke out among them.

A resident said the argument degenerated as a suspected cultist pulled out a firearm and shot indiscriminately, leading to Mustapha getting hit by a stray bullet.
