Am a student if ESUT and whoever has been to esut knows what the situation with cultist feels like, esut was formally known as ''eshoot'' as cult activities happen in broad day light, they carry poly bags from class to class as students are forced to drop their phones inside even during lectures it was that bad...but thank God for the recent development it has reduced....


During the first weeks of the school year, confraternity
alumni and members swarm campuses recruiting new
members. Initiation ceremonies normally involve severe
beatings, in order to test their endurance, as well as
ingestion of a liquid mixed with blood. Male initiates may
sometimes be required to pass an additional hurdle before
becoming full members, including raping a popular female
student or a female member of the university staff. Among
the all-female Jezebels or Amazons, prospective members
may be required to undergo six rounds of rough sexual
intercourse or fight with against a group of women or
against a much stronger man.[11] Cults also charge annual
membership fees of between 10,000 (US$80) and 30,000
naira.[8]
Frequent criminal activity for cults include intimidating
professors into giving high grades, including by burning their
cars or briefly abducting their children.[8] Since the 1980s,
confraternities have murdered people who are thought to
have 'stolen' a member's girlfriend, or " sugar daddy" in the
case of female groups. Female groups began operating as
prostitution rings relatively early.[12] The majority of
confraternities, as of 2005, were engaged in a variety of
money-making criminal activities, ranging from cybercrime
to armed robbery and kidnapping.[4] Cult members may
also get money from political figures, who wish to intimidate
their opponents.[8] The exact death toll of confraternity
activities is unclear. One estimate in 2002 was that 250
people had been killed in campus cult-related murders in
the previous decade,[7] while the Exam Ethics Project lobby
group estimated that 115 students and teachers had been
killed between 1993 and 2003.[8] However those figures pale
into insignificance when compared with recent cult activities
in Benin city, the Edo state capital in 2008 and 2009, with
over 40 cult related deaths recorded
monthly.[citation needed]
In the Niger River delta, confraternities are deeply
enmeshed in the conflict in the oil-rich delta. Most of the
campus cults have been accused of kidnapping foreign oil
workers for ransom, while many of the militant groups, such
as the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta
(MEND), employ confraternity members as combatants;
Soboma George, head of street and creek confraternity The
Outlaws, is also a MEND commander.[4]
Campus cults also offer opportunities to members after
graduation. As confraternities have extensive connections
with political and military figures, they offer excellent alumni
networking opportunities. The Supreme Vikings
Confraternity, for example, boasts that twelve members of
the Rivers State House of Assembly are cult members.....SHARE YOUR EXPERIENCE

Worried by the resurgence of cult-related killings in Asaba, Delta State capital, natives of the town on Monday began a spiritual cleansing exercise.

The exercise, our correspondent learnt, which would last for seven days, started with a procession led simultaneously by the Chief Priests of the five quarters of Asaba at the respective domains.

It was gathered that the Chief Priests leading the Village Heads (Diokpa) in every quarter, embarked on the procession at the wee hours of Monday in red attires.

Our correspondent further learnt that the procession ended at the Ihu-Ani (community shrine) of every quarter, where other traditional rites including oath-taking were also performed.

The spiritual exercise, according to community sources, was directed by the Asagba of Asaba as a measure to end the worsening cult-related clashes leading to the gruesome killing of over six persons in the past two weeks.

A native of the Umuagu village of Asaba, Jude Ojiugo, confirmed that the early morning procession had the blessing of the Asagba.

‘The Diokpas (heads) of each quarter was directed to embark on procession, an indication that all is not well in the community, and to call on indigenes to denounce cultism.

‘All the members of the cult are supposed to take oath in Ihu-ani (front of the shrine) to denounce their membership. Each quarter performed their own in their respective Ihu-ani shrine.

‘Ours in Umuagu here, the heads embarked on the procession as directed the Asagba of Asaba. Those who refused to come out and renounce their membership of secret cult groups had curses placed on them,’ Ojiugo said.

According to Ojiugo, on the last day of the exercise, another rite would be performed at the shrine, adding that it would also afford those yet to renounce cultism the opportunity to do so.

Ojiugo said the popular Ogbogonogo market along Nnebisi Road would be shut down on the final of the spiritual cleansing.
