Religion / Asigidi Society by kenn1234: 8:20pm On Jun 21, 2017
According to Efosa, membership is open to Edos and other ethnicities in Nigeria , and that men and women are eligible for initiation within the society, although the "predominance The professor indicated that the society is "potentially very dangerous for individuals who join them" (5 Oct.2012). He also indicated that even though positions within the Asigidi society are not inherited,
[i]f one person's parent was a member of the Asigidi Society, and that person had been exposed to their activities (e.g. meetings held at his or her parents' house while the child was present so that over the years the child grew up knowing the identities of the Asigidi; or, the parent deliberately pledged that his or her child would become a member; or, if the child had been used as an assassin by the Asigidi in the sense that he or she had been the "courier" who went into a target's compound and added poison to the water source or whatever), that child would be expected to join). So, in essence only someone who has had a history with them in a very close manner can be intimidated into joining. And if this were in Edo and other state in particular (or within that region generally), their intimidation might work.

One of his family members reportedly said to the Nigerian Observer that, as of February 2009, the man had not returned to his home since 2007 "because of the potential threat to his life" (ibid.). Corroborating information could not be found by the Research Directorate among the sources consulted within the time constraints of this Response.
