A video has surfaced online capturing the moment suspected cultists clashed inside the University of Benin (UNIBEN), Ugbowo Campus.
The clash, which occurred at a car park, initially saw a group of young men, who should be members of the same cult, assaulting another individual, a rival cult member, who had been rounded up in their midst.
One of the attackers could be seen using his hands repeatedly on him as others surrounded him from left to right.
A few moments later, another young man, who should be a member of his cult group, walked in on them to challenge them.
This intervention allowed the man they held hostage the opportunity to walk away.
He was confronted as he walked away and punches were exchanged, but they could no longer get hold of him as he retreated.
One member of the group ran towards him with a machete, attempting several times to cut him, but he managed to dodge the attacks
The clip ended with him picking up an object from the floor to throw towards the group. The incident has sparked significant concern regarding safety on the campus.
