He also revealed how members were recruited into the cult unknowingly.
He said, “The gang has an official Facebook page (Bbl Baloteli) with 1,928 friends. We use the Facebook page and other social media accounts to recruit new members, plan attacks and give updates to members”.

Bala informed that, ” On February 4, 2020, at about 7.20 pm, following sustained monitoring, operatives from Itire Police station led by the Divisional Police Officer, SP Barkfur Kromkyes arrested one Maliki Bello, 22 years old, the supreme leader of the notorious Berry Boys Secret Cult with operational base at Itire.

“The Commissioner of Police Lagos State, CP Hakeem Odumosu, has further reaffirmed the commitment of the Command to address the menace of cultism and youth gangsterism in Lagos State.
“The onslaught on social miscreants launched by the Commissioner of Police is intelligence-driven, targeting mostly leaders of the gangs and cult groups and blocking channels through which they recruit young people. The Special Strike Force on Social Miscreants has successfully brought under control activities of various cults and gangs in the State through well-coordinated and targeted operations. The onslaught will be sustained until they are totally defeated”.
