The bolded is what government over the years have ignored, you CAN'T eradicate campus cultism with the kind of root is has grown (even outside school to residential areas). Let them be registered, their members known so whenever there are issues, you know who to tackle. But no, government keeps living in denial because these cultists (the violent ones) are useful to them from time to time.

ceeceeco: U're right. If u must join a confraternity u must have 2 use ur head. Back in 2002 wen i was in 200 level, i joined the supreme vikings confraternity @ Uniport because of a d problem i had with a student who i neva knew was a cultist. The problem was because he wore my shoe 2 sch without my permission so i asked him why he wore my shoe without my permission. What he said was i should use my head, so i got angry @ his statement & we had a bust up which led 2 him going 2 call his gang 4 me. They had 2 beat me up & made away with some of my belongings. So my frnd who is a member the supreme vikings confraternity had 2 initiate me so we could fight back. Wen i came on board i was anchored the post of an I.C, then later became an A.D.C, then later became the Strike chief, then later became the Arkman, 4rm the arkman i became the executioner. School was very rugged & tough then, so if i hadn't use my head i would've had lots of problem. Thank God i'm a graduate(Emeritus/Xyz/Norseman). Ur intelligence is ur ruggedity...crime doesn't pay.

Oxone: Sadly Some of the worst things imaginable have been done with the best intentions.

These Fraternities were meant to be an organized society of men dedicated to the intellectual, physical, moral, religious, and/or social development of its members just like the ones we have abroad.

So No i don't agree that Soyinka is as fault, i blame all the clueless and irresponsible people who hijacked a noble idea and abused it just like every other thing in this country.

"The evil that is in the world almost always comes of ignorance, and good intentions may do as much harm as malevolence if they lack understanding" - Albert Camus

Pdizzle:

Wole Soyinka has no blame at all, he didn't start it out as a cult, there are fraternities in the developed countries, but this kind of degradation is bound to occur in a country plagued by inequalities, abject poverty and other menaces

Yungwizzzy28: They should be blamed for it

if they had brains as they claimed, they would have envisaged what the outcome would look

what form of silly 'intelligence group' will you form with a skull and two bones on? And call yourselves sealords??

they knew their intentions and what you're seeing now is the outcome!!

I blame them for starting a 'gang' in the first place

I think you guys need some degree of clarity here.

1. The Pyrates Confraternity a.k.a National Association of Seadogs was not formed in 1965 but 1952; ask your google.

2. Pyrates are NOT Pirates. The confrat website will tell you more...just do some research.

3. One of the founders of BAN was once a Seadog who was black-spotted for indecent acts but refused to bleach his spot, thus; formed the BAN with a lubber who continue to copy virtually every PC way of life till this day!


4. When you talk of "best behaviour" I really don't get what you mean. I you new to your frat?

5. The PC was formed with four compass points to be upheld at all time:
- Against moribund convention.
- Against tribalism and ethnicity.
- For humanistic ideals.
- For comradeship and chivalry.

6. You cannot find the PC in schools anymore. Not for children or miscreants. There are a whole lot of challenging qualities strictly required of a person (after series of tests and exams) before you can be considered for acceptance into the brotherhood.

7. No Seadog will ever cajole or lure anyone into the confrat, for the fewer the merrier! There is a very high set standard within the association that 80% of prospective joiners are turned down. That is as serious as it is.

The BAN is making concious efforts to emulate the PCs with many Buccaneers vying to join the PC but very few of them make it on yearly basis. The truth is bitter.

Please visit their website and be thoroughly informed...not depending on just hearsay.

I can't remember when last I heard that the PCs are at war with one frat or the other because they stand totally out on their own...not emulating anyone.

Joining a particular group remains a personal decision
You can ONLY know better if and ONLY if you "go".

Not soliciting for anyone.

Downgrading BAN and refferred its member as lobbers make you an I'm.bec.ile who based his fact and belief on lies from the internet. Founders of BAN were not black-spotted due to indecency but mutiny. BAN policy against indecency.

Chynx:

You don't have to call names my dear. I won't downgrade myself to that level just yet.

If you understand the use of English and perhaps your orientation as a member of BAN, you should have read between the lines properly. Let me rephrase for a probable better comprehension by you...

"A member of NAS who was among the original seven (7) founding fathers of the system derailed/lagged/defaulted/did something which was frowned at (I don't have to spill the beans here) and was black-spotted as a result. Rather than tyrn a new leaf and plead for reabsorption, he joined hands with a lubber (someone who is not a Pyrate/in terms with what it takes to be a sailor) and formed the BAN.

Mind you, none of these was surfed from the web.

Have a good day and choose your words wisely. It pays to do so.

cyril83:

I choosed to comment base on your insinuation, go back and read what you posted and see how little you portrayed BAN on a lobsh site.

Right.



An average joe won't bother about Y and I.



I suppose this is what you were told but this is false. This is a battle with Pyrates and Buccaneers that will never end - Buccaneers are least bothered about Pyrates but Pyrates on the other hand bent on carrying out an assault of lies in history; which you just displayed, online fora; with gory tales written about Buccaneers and the media; your national capone was on express AM saying 'they, the buccaneers belong to the violent ones', coupled with how every frat skirmish is put on Buccaneers - the recent Damoche (who was never a buccaneer, the vikings nd issue at owerri etc). Meanwhile BAN keeps rolling over playing dead, this might change soon. Professor Bolaji Carew was never spotted, he and some folks left on their own volition and more pyrates began to cross over - I won't go into details.



By this, he meant Buccaneers are usually believed to be 'fine boys' and originally referred to as 'omoluabis' in UI way back before the old hands disconnected from the younger ones - most people seek to join Buccaneers first before any other fraternities and the reason Buccaneers is having problems is, many were rejected in the early 90s, hence the continuous violence against Buccaneers from members of other fraternities who felt 'dissed'.




All other frats, even degenerate ones claim to have been built upon this ideologies.



Usual propaganda! On Modaship, Pyrates are present, Olabiso Onabanjo has Pyrates too, Unilag, Funaab and even Osun State University - most of whom I've happened to come across. Dogs in Osogbo relate with and aid the sail of Dogs in Osun State University - they hide under covers of Buccaneers in school, who see them as 'cousins'.



Every other frat say this too. Doesn't make PC exclusive.



Flat lie! It seems every dog has been ingrained with lies to continue the vendetta against Lords over the schism of 1972! You lot just want to keep using every subtle means possible to maroon the sail Bolaji Carew set over 40 decades ago, yet, the wind has never left the ship's canvas! BAN has never tried to emulate PC, tell that to Vikings - we don't have the same structures or lingos bro.



This is the problem, when Pyrates in OSU get caught, they lie they are Buccaneers. When they have problems with other frats, they run to Buccaneers for cover. Most situations BAN got caught up with in mid-90s was because they were involved in PC wahala.
