Fear gripped the Ikola area of Lagos State as popular TikToker, Kesari Okala, was violently assaulted by suspected cultists while waiting at a bus stop.
The attack, which occurred on Sunday, was captured in a viral video where Kesari, visibly in pain, could be seen rolling on the floor, his body drenched in blood.
“You see the Aye in your area. See what they did to me,” the emotional content creator said in the video. “I was just waiting for a bike. They were returning from their meeting and attacked me. Did they want to kill me?”
Witnesses say Kesari was stabbed in the head with a sharp object. His injuries follow a chilling trend of escalating cult clashes in the area.

According to Punch, a day before Kesari’s assault, a male adult was hacked to death by rival cultists. “His hand was cut off and taken away,” a local source said.
The recent surge in cult-related violence in Lagos is raising alarms. Just last month, three young men were killed in Ebute Meta by suspected cult groups. The victims—Agbara, Butcher, and an unnamed plumber—were reportedly stabbed and dragged to isolated spots before being murdered.
With social media influencers now becoming targets, the Lagos State Police may face fresh pressure to curb cult activity and restore safety in urban areas.
Residents are demanding urgent intervention before more lives are lost to these criminal gangs.
