1.1
BACKGROUND
FOR THE STUDY
Cultism is the state where persons
are bound together with a common belief or course usually through rituals.
According to the oxford dictionary of English the word “cult” means a system of
worship usually expressed through ritual. Form this definition, cult which is
now properly known as confraternities, hence assumed a monstrous feature in our
institution of higher learning. To give end therefore, out various campuses
which were hitherto a mode of intellectual quest citadels of violence and
terrorism. Cultism which started in the late 50s, but the first (secret) cult
in our institution was the sea dog popularity known as (pirates). It was formed
by seven men gang men then, led by professor Wole Soyinka of the then
university, college, Ibadan in 1952, there was nothing secret then here it was
merely introduced. The main motive is to move the country forward and to fight
against oppression by the colonial masters the “motto” says one thing we all
agreed as that, there world not be any room for colonial mentality in the club.
According Ehigie (2007) stated that there are some major reasons why student
join secret cult activities.
Protection: Many ignorant
students join one secret cult or the other all in the name of being protected
by the cult leaders who cannot even protect themselves.
Popularity: Many students
join cult because they want to know where ever they are because of their ever
activities.
Superiority: some other
students believed that as a cultist they have gain superiority over the non
cultist (Jews).
Access to girls: Many boys
think that cultist at trust girls and there will be no scarcity of girl friends
for the cultist. Verse versa.
But today cult’s activities have
change from it original plans. It is now a saying that cultist’s activities are
all evil and satanic and the youths who are future leaders of this nation be
the one involved in this activities (cult). If cultism is playing our citadels
of learning of learning, where the mind and character of our youths be being
sharpened for good, then the very foundation of an national development is
shaky. This study therefore is to examine the effect of cultism on academic
performances of students in selected tertiary institution in Edo State,
