SUB-TOPIC 1:   CAUSES OF CULTISM

1. Protection: In the olden days, the real cause of cultism is protection against bad school administration or protection of interests in government jobs. Members come together in secret to discuss how to protect themselves.
2. Inadequate Parental Care: Parents no longer care about the friends their children and wards keep. Many do not care about funding their children’s education. The result is that, the child joins groups that would make them ‘comfortable’ at school and in the larger society. Cultists attract such people when they get to schools.

1. Disobedience to wise counsels given by parents to their wards as they get admitted to higher institutions.
2. Inordinate ambition to be recognized as a tough guy in campus
3. Poor leadership
4. Injustice: When there is social injustice, the cult will encourage other youths to join them fight against injustice.
5. The need for security because of the inability to act, think and survive independently.
6. Economic Hardship: Many cult groups offer their member financial assistance, such offer make many students join such group.
