==History==
The conflict between the Ghetto Boys and rival Peckham boys in 2006 drew widespread press coverage. Most of them are in prison.〔(icSouthlondon - Death rampage by bicycle gang of 50 )〕 It is thought that the conflict between the two gangs had been ongoing for over 20 years,〔('Shot Billy had a gun too' | The Sun |HomePage|News )〕 although it has now ceased.
Some members of the gang are known to carry arms such as MAC-10 machine pistols.〔(Entries from Londonist tagged with '2006/09/peckham_academy' )〕 A member of the Ghetto Boys fired a shot at the 2004 Urban Music Awards, injuring accountant Hellen Kelly. The bullet hit the underwire in her bra, preventing fatal injury.〔('Shot Billy had a gun too' | The Sun |HomePage|News )〕
The Ghetto Boys were known to have a leader of Nigerian Descent, by the name of Andrew Wanogho known as "Sparks"〔http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7605761.stm〕 to the Ghetto Boys and Shower Gang. He had a fierce reputation, where he was known to drop out of school at the age of 13. When he was in young offenders he was known to have the ability to knock out a fully grown man at just 16, which is why he got the nickname Sparks. He was also a talented boxer in the community known as "the assassin" in the boxing ring. Wanogho was killed in 2006.〔
