How To Avoid Being Lured Into Cultism! by jokhen10: 11:40pm On Feb 25, 2015
I have been wondering at the fast rate of the spread of cultism, inspite of all the dangers of cultism that was brought to our notice and differents reasons why we should not engage in such wicked activity. My question is, why are we ignoring this dangers and embracing the menace called cultism? Any one's got the answer?

The primary reason young people join cult is just to satisfy the natural hunger to feel important.

There are many reasons why people delve into cultism.

For some it's a freewill... But some unfortunate ones are coerced into joining.

However, one can choose to refuse being a member at all cost while doing these;

1. Avoid bad company at all cost. I know this one sounds obvious... But a guy who is really determined to keep away has his starting point in this cliche advice.

Evil communication they say, corrupts good manners; it's that simple!

2. Be selective of the parties you attend on campus - some people don't even attend at all.

3. Be peaceful with all. I knew a guy in 100Level who made trouble with a cultist at a viewing centre, without knowing the guy is a cultist. As the story went, the dude tracked him home with his 'boys' and they severely dealt with him.

He became angry and decided he was going to revenge... What was his revenge? He went to 'blend'... Dude was killed when we were in 300L. Shot at Ekosodin - anyone who knows this place know how tough it is -. He would have being able to avoid all that disaster if he had kept his cool that day at the viewing centre.

4. Learn to channel your exuberance to good and productive causes.

5. Be active in your campus fellowship. Whether you're a christian, a muslim or whatever... Just make sure you attend and/or are active in whatever is being done in your fellowships.

'cause with what I experienced in school, those guys know the people they can walk up to and coerce into joining them; and a 'that-guy-too-they-go-church' kinda person is not on that list.

Finally, this doesn't concern the students... It's more a task that I think should be implemented by management to reduce the bane of cultism on our campuses:

** To make cultism unattractive and an unnecessary option, there must be improved facilities and living conditions on campuses so as to minimize perceived strain in the social system which underlines cultism on our campuses.

Our institutions must be overhauled inorder to be capable of providing for all who live within them and be able to correct the injustices against any student or group of students by peaceful and lawful means.

Coerced

I don't think so. I knew a lot of them back in the days and nine was coerced. They wanted it and joined. I don't know how true but I heard that you had to apply and fill forms. So how is one coerced. They bought the form for you?

Cultism is bad. Many have dies in issues they had no idea about.

Say no to cultism.

Seated.... embarassed


So, how do I do away with the feelings of wanting to join the cultist group?

Thanks man... And lol @the textbook part.

Problem with the country is that, even if the powers that be get to read meaningful suggestions _ which they do everyday, anyway - they wouldn't do a thing about it. It's like that.

1st mate sit down n ask your self dis questions.
1. Wat do i stand to gain?
2. Wat do i stand to lose?
...... have u done dat already?
...... if yes, do u hav d answers?
...... if no, den permit me to answer for u.
What do u stand to gain?
1.Of course, popularity(negative though).
2.Attention from gals who are more or less glorified whores!
3.Fear from students.
4.A feeling of negative importance!
5.Automatic license to most parties.

What do u stand to lose?
1. Freedom(of movement, of doing things as normal students for fear of d unknown.)
2.Your education( most seldom graduates)
3.Your dream( since no serious learning is achieved, no dream is created so no future guaranteed!)
4.Right to fair hearing lost( since one is a renowned cultist, wen accused of anything, who wud bliv he/she didnt comit d crime even if they didnt?)
5Above all your life( really! do i need to emphasize on dis?)
when u re tru readn dis n u still hav dat feeling, go see a Pastor, psychiatrist, imam!
