Please, stop giving them anything.

See if you can report to the police without disclosing your identity.

Importantly, plan to relocate ASAP.

Those boys are subhumans with no brain in their skulls.... living close to them exposes you to all sorts of risks.

Uptheante:
That means you are enabling cultism, if you have to give them 1k so that they won't intimidate you.
That's an act of cowardice & a show of weakness

Sammiepro95:
Just as people had advice above, please if you feel insecure kindly relocate

remzytimer:
Ahhh! One morning carry your Bible sir with them and preach the gospel to them, don't rebooked them, just let them the better side is Jesus side. They will be avoiding you

NOETHNICITY:
Here’s a refined, clearer version while keeping your tone and message intact:

You people can be funny sometimes.

Many years ago, my best friend and I applied for a federal government job. When it was time for the screening, interviews, and tests, he refused to go because he believed it was impossible to get an FG job without connections. I did everything I could to convince him to at least make an effort before drawing conclusions. He even promised to show up—but he never did.

Ironically, he had a better chance than I did, with his BSc and his brilliance.

Lo and behold, I got the job, and he has remained jobless to this day.

So please, stop discouraging people from trying things that could lead to positive outcomes.

Let him write an anonymous letter describing the location and the people involved.

If you’d like it more formal, more persuasive, or more concise, I can adjust it!

I get why you’re thinking this way — when someone feels threatened or uncomfortable in a new area, the mind goes straight to protection, signaling strength, and avoiding trouble.
But let’s break this down calmly and safely.


---

✅ First: Be VERY careful with the idea of “bringing soldiers to chill”

Not because you’re doing anything wrong, but because:

Soldiers are not bodyguards.

If someone in the area is truly a cultist, trying to signal affiliation with military people can backfire — it can create curiosity, tension, or even make them feel you’re trying to “test” them.

It may give you temporary perceived safety but not long-term stability.


It’s not the safest or smartest long-term strategy.

👍 A safer, realistic way to avoid trouble in your area

Keep interactions neutral ...

If someone is trying to size you up or intimidate you:
– Stay calm
– Don’t argue
– Don’t show fear
– Don’t show aggression
Just neutral respect.

4. Keep your movements smart

Avoid walking late at night, especially alone or through isolated paths.



“Inviting soldiers to show you’re not small”

This can work situationally, but only if:

It happens naturally (e.g., they’re your genuine friends).

You’re not using them to intimidate anyone.

It doesn’t become a regular pattern.


If the cult guys think you’re “forming power,” it can actually increase attention.

If soldiers are genuinely your friends and they come around casually once in a while, that’s fine — but it shouldn’t be a tactics.

⭐ My honest advice

Your best protection is blending in, keeping a low profile, building community rapport, and not giving anyone the sense that you’re competing or proving anything.

Berankis:
You just have to maintain your confidence. No send their papa, them no fit do you anything. But you don't make it so obvious.
You go still relate with them man-to-man, you no be street normally?
You sef go relate with them according to street level, you don't need to be a cultist, you already a Naija boy .
If you get money, once in a while you give them, if you no get let them know say you no get! No long stories and no fear them and no need of reporting them. Them full my area for here too, I just know how I dey handle them, I don't see them as a problem.

Tzar:
Report the matter to your family & police ASAP. Those cowards fear jail time like crazy… if you know , you know!

MERCHANDISER:
That 1k might be on a weekly basis,not everyday. Those guys can be beneficial somehow😀
They can help you push your car or carry heavy luggage for free

Uptheante:

mozona:
Sorry ooo shey na only cultist dey ask for money ni for area.

Which cowardice be that! Know ur enviroment oga.

Emma513:
We live in cool and quite place, so recently a group of boys that are into cultism relocated to our place, I was brought up in a godly family, and don't follow or join cult, they have been disturbing my life with, boy find us 1k, even when I no get, boy you dey Bleep up, U be juu man, etc.

I am really tired of their bully. I am a calm and quiet person and I don't like rough life, these guys will smoke and shout till night, I am afraid of reporting this to security agency, because I thought they might come after me if they discover I reported them.

So what can I do in this situation?

Rhassidy360:
Make friends with them. Just find your way around them. No be by force to belong. Them no fit collect wetin u no get.

Ubanz:
Don't relocate, write a petition to the commissioner of police ,copy the DPO of the nearest Police station and make sure you give a detailed and verifiable narration of their activities in the area. add Photos of the vagabonds and locations where they can be found too.
You can add a little salt and pepper, for instance they have turned the neighborhood into a drug den.theyre making life unbearable for residents,people are living in fear etc
The DPO will do the needful ASAP before a query comes from the CP.
Bet me it won't take up to 1 week before they're nabbed.

Pootle:
if you cant win them join them.

i drop you a mail

Omayie:
