Ekiti State Governor Mr. Ayodele Fayose has signed into law, the bill prohibiting secret cults, terrorism and prescribing death sentence for any one caught in the acts.

While appending his signature on the bill at the government house in Ado Ekiti, Mr. Fayose said the singing was a confirmation of the unwavering commitment of the state government towards combating terrorism across the tertiary institutions in the state.

"From now, any person who is a member of a secret cult, whether or not the person is in possession or in control of any offensive weapon but commit the offence, is liable to conviction to death.

"Any person who gives financial or material support or assistance to a secret cult or in any manner sponsor the activities of a secret cult, commits an offence under this law and is liable on conviction to imprisonment for life" he said.

The governor further explained that anybody who facilitates secret cult meetings or activities in places such as houses, night clubs, hotels and other residential areas would be committed to life imprisonment.

He added that buildings where any cult related activities is held would be forfeited to the government while the owners of such structures would be sentenced to five years imprisonment without an option of fine.

The Ekiti state helmsman who re-emphasized his administration's zero tolerance for cultism and terrorism in the state said lives and property of the people would continue to be protected.

This is good news for Democracy.

What about the looters?

River state should adopt the xsame style

Gov. Godwin Obaseki of Edo state, should be courageous enough to emulate what Mr. Fayose has just done.


This is laudable!



Cultism is evil and no cultist deserves to live.
The death penalty is divine.


God bless Gov. Ayo Peter Fayose for taking this bold step in tackling this evil called cultism that has almost hijacked the entirety of many Nigerian Youth.

later, they will still use the cultists for election purposes

Cultism is a virus that has eaten deep into the lives of our youth... Though death is not the best option but it can also help tackle the issue of cultism.

Arrest, prosecution and rehabilitation.. Killing is a waste of human life

I dont like this man and his antics but this is laudable...... ...
Even if this is political Motivated, It is commendable

Let him go and swear in ogun shrine he is not in any cult first .see kettle giving pot a bad name

The amala governor has come out to show his shallowness again.
First,the constitution supercedes any kpomo or ewedu induced state law and its only in murder cases that death penalty is allowed.
Secondly,how can any sane person prescribe death penalty for just belonging to a cult group!
Third Fayose shud be ready to execute many Ekitians because i am sure that eith the level of poverty him and buhari av unleashed in state and federal,many Ekitians may have fd secret cult membership and its false security and wealth,an easy get away route.

Correct Governor, unlike that Okowa

Call him crazy, call him all sort of names, Fayose is one of the greatest politician to come out of southwest

Can wike do d same in Rivers!

In the twenty first century, the capital punishment is absurd, this is my personal opinion. No one has the right to take a human life not even government. The same cultist and terrorist are always empowered by politicians before and during elections. Personally, i believe the government should provide better security apparatus across the state, make security the business of the locals by reporting any thing that makes them suspicious, punishing all crimes as appropriate, reporting suspected cultist/terrorist and rehabilitating those who show remorse towards a better life. The death penalty is very stringent to me when you have not provided the underlying security apparatus. This same scenario has been proven several times, the death penalty for armed robbery, kidnapping has not stem their ugly tides. Let Government do its business part of providing good life and security before discussing capital punishment.

Next president of Nigeria

Courageous Leader... Well done sir
