Those were the days when Frats consisted of reasonable people and intellectuals, Now, the whole thing has been hijacked by lowlifes and riff-raffs, murderous blowhards.

Those days when cult wasn't for small boys eating their mama food.

These guys turned our youths to what they have become today....killing and maiming themselves.

See ipob consoling themselves, trying to change the story "when Cult was full of intellectuals" Cult is Cult, I can bet you many individual in Cult now have higher IQ than Azikwe

Interesting how you thought what you typed is funny. Anyways, What do I know?

Wole Soyinka brought cultism into Nigeria. He should be executed for wasting thousands of our youths and leading more to early graves

Frats were never a thing for intellectuals and reasonable people. Have you seen Woke Soyinka's pictures in his younger days? Does it strike you as someone who was living a good life at the time?

Please don't bother asking. They were young men doing silly things for their age

Update: I talk am...see the reply he gave you

If he wasn't living a good life, how did he become a nobel laureate?
You think it happens over night?.
Simple, Then they had better objectives, unlike now that they go about maiming and killing people.
Even US ivy league universities have Confraternities. Legal and registered.

Our youths turned themselves to what they have become

Stop trying to whitewash cultism. It was not a good idea in the past and would not be a good idea moving forward!!

Help me ask him. To think that he's using a name of Professor Snape, a character I got to love until his death in the movie, dey vex me.

The professor would not write like you

Who's whitewashing it?
I said what i said. Doesn't mean I'm whitewashing anything. Besides, it was purely a confraternity then, not now.
You wouldn't hear of rival cult wars then, unlike now.
... And yes, Cultism is not a good idea.

BLUELemon:

Wole Soyinka and co then. Some of them must have lectured you in school even.

Azmanaty:
Wole Soyinka brought cultism into Nigeria.

Jolson:


Who started it?

The things they did back then is quite different from what our youths do today

SaintBeehot:

They don't know na. Read, they won't. If they weren't purposeful people, you think Azikiwe would associate with them?. No way.

geezynoni:

I don't know about that. What I know is cult is cult and they have things in common.

SeverusSnape:

Simple, Then they had better objectives, unlike now that they go about maiming and killing people.

you can be a killer and still write a book and clinch the nobel laureate in literature

Pirate are non for violence on the sea and Soyinka modeled his cult group after the then pirate, holding night meetings, and claiming to right wrongs of the oppressed as if they where officers of the law, they even have their own gods and many other not so good life attribute

The only reason you did not hear of rival cult clashes is because there were not enough cults and cultists
