Teenage Cultism on the Rampage

CHECKING THE RISING INCIDENCE OF TEENAGE CULTISM

Cultism can be defined as a situation whereby a group of persons holds or shares beliefs that is significantly different from those of established religion as well as practice traditions that are contrary to those regarded as normal and acceptable.

This implies that cultism is an activity carried out by a secret cult/confraternity. A secret cult is simply an organization of a few persons with a view to actualizing a sinister or ulterior motive.

Cultism could be attributable to various factors such as hunger, frustration, vulnerability, insecurity, ignorance, inferiority complex, quest for power, peer influence, oppression, youth restiveness, intimidation, loneliness, or family/parental background, as the case may be. Among all the factors that could make someone to join a secret confraternity, the most dominant one is peer influence.

Someone is confirmed a member of a secret cult group after passing through a certain rigorous ritual, which is invariably cruel and inhumane. Sometimes, the prospective cult member passes away in the process if he or she lacks a strong resistance to pressure or tension.

An individual may willingly wish to join a certain secret cult owing to his/her interest. On the contrary, one might be subjected to join a cult group through the effort of some of the members of the group due to a certain quality or idiosyncrasy they observed in the person such as academic excellence, financial security, influence, and/or physical stamina.

It is obvious that cult activities have been on rampage in recent times. There are various forms or levels of cultism; ab initio, secret society was found among people of advanced age bracket until it was introduced to the students of tertiary institutions of learning. And lately, the latter seemed to be of higher effrontery as a result of youthful exuberance.

Currently, it appears cultism has taken a different dimension, which makes it more worrisome. Apparently, the drumbeat is no longer observed only on our campuses or in wider societies but also by the students of the various secondary schools in Nigeria and beyond.

Surely, taking a walk to any neighbouring secondary school will convince one that teenage cultism has come to stay among our teeming young ones. The most painful part remains that most of the teenagers involved are yet to know that they are practising evil or something prohibited by the law thereby making them constitute enormous nuisance among their contemporaries.

Some of them don’t even stop at their fellow students while carrying out their activities or observing their norms; in most cases, they end up threatening their teachers or a staff of the school. It is pathetic to notice that most of the affected parents or guardians are yet to acknowledge that their children or wards are cultists, which implies that the so called parents cannot give adequate account of their teens.

Unequivocally, extension of this ugly and dastardly trend to our secondary schools is no doubt an indication that the future of the country’s educational sector is not just in shambles but has been placed in an unimaginable danger zone that if severe measure is not taken towards its eradication, the country is liable to experience a colossal socio-economic waste soonest.

We must understand that all hands ranging from the parents, to teachers, counsellors, school managements, government at all levels, religious bodies, the media, civil society, and what have you, are expected to be on deck toward stemming this societal menace that is telling on as well as ravaging our national development.

We ought to make our young ones realize that one who indulges in cultism has sold his or her soul to the devil and could die prematurely. Among all, they should be meant to comprehend that anyone caught in the act will surely face the wrath of the law, which attracts a capital punishment to include life imprisonment among others.

There is no need reiterating the fact that a teenage cultist is likely to possess a poor mental coordination and may abandon his/her studies or educational pursuits at the long run. Indeed, any cultist is perpetually in bondage to fear, and has no regards for social and moral values. Above all, he/she is often destructive, merciless, unreasonably stubborn and extremely wicked. Suffice it to say that cultists have no regard for one’s life, even theirs.

Against this backdrop, there’s a compelling need to save our young ones from this irrational and blasphemous practice that will cost them not only their future but their lives as well, so that, the country can boast of leaders tomorrow. In regard to this, the parents/guardians ought to endeavour to keep every record of the activities of their wards, and endeavour from time-to-time to pay unscheduled visit to those residing in the school dormitory. The various school managements on their part should not hesitate to report to the concerned parent whenever they observe any strange behaviour in any student.

Most importantly, the various security agencies including the community based ones like the vigilante group are meant to variously mount their stations close to the secondary schools within their respective places of operation or even inside the schools’ premises. This measure, no doubt, will go a long way to checkmate the day-to-day activity of the students and also keep them away from any form of vulnerability that is likely to befall them. Obviously, the time to act is now. Think about it!

Criticism and Nation-Building

THE ROLE OF CRITICISM IN NATION-BUILDING

       

Criticism can be defined as the expression of disapproval of someone or something. In the same vein, a critic of a person or system disapproves of them and expresses such view publicly; one who writes reviews and expresses opinions about books, films, music or any art work having considered it carefully can also be referred to as ‘a critic’.

Criticism is simply a matter of flushing out a certain thought or attitude and trying to change it. It is to show that things are not as self-evident as one believes. Thus, criticism ensures that what is accepted as self-evident will no longer be accepted as such. Suffice it to say; observance criticism in any society is a matter of making facile gestures or remarks difficult.

Criticisms are veritable recipes in any area of human endeavour. For instance; in Steward-Client relationship, if the client has a criticism to tender, it means he/she wants to give feedback on the services being rendered to him/her, thereby creating an opportunity for the steward to learn more about the person he is working for and how to convert them into a satisfied client member. Same measure is applicable in a Trader-Customer relationship.

Similarly, in business venture, working or partnering with someone who is patient and able to receive as well as act on criticism signifies that both parties involved can work towards a better or greater outcome. Furthermore; in movie production, criticism enables the producer to know what his audience actually want.

If one always thinks he is right but doesn’t get feedback from anyone else, he wouldn’t know if he is really doing well. Whether you are selling, servicing, performing, or leading, listening and acting on those honest views or reactions will tell you precisely what is good and what could be done better. Perhaps, you can use the information to change your performance, exhibition or product, as the case may be.

In public service, criticism has the tendency of guiding the public servants away from bad practices, and towards good and acceptable ones. It would enable the said workers to take a step back or have a rethink with a view to making amends or adjustment where necessary.

The socio-political arena is not left out while discussing the inevitable role of criticism in nation-building. Undoubtedly, a little constructive criticism from the members of the public such as the civil society groups, the electorate, the religious organizations or what have you, channelled towards the political office holders can yield the anticipated change in the country or society in question.

Considering the positive impact of constructive criticism, there is no gain reiterating the fact that it is indeed a welcome gesture or required factor toward the socio-economic development of any nation; hence, ought to be sustained. To this end, there is need for us to acknowledge that the language we use in response to criticism is vitally important.

Whenever criticism is tendered by any concerned individual or group, the recipient is expected to try at all cost to avoid getting into an argument. Instead, they should turn the exchange into a discussion on how to resolve the predicament; such approach would keep the door open for the required change.

Most importantly, criticisms are not meant to be taken personally. Even if one feels he/she is being criticized unfairly, he shouldn’t retaliate with an extreme knee-jerk reaction; such response will worsen the situation and can even harm the person’s reputation as well. Therefore, it is essential to always remember to not be offended by someone’s remarks even if you think it is a personal attack.

On the other hand; having noted the enormous significance of constructive criticism in nation-building, there is also a compelling need for the critics to be mindful at all times when tendering their criticisms. They should know when they are supposed to tender the criticism as well as how it ought to be presented. It is worthy to note that, some critics lack the orientation on when and how to present their criticism; this set of persons invariably tender their contrary opinions as a form of antagonism thereby making the supposed recipient misunderstand the gesture.

More so, critics are meant to comprehend that criticism is expected to be accompanied by the presumed remedy to the anomaly that is being criticized. Most so called critics usually end up raising a cloud of dust in the name of criticism. Unequivocally, a criticism that is not tendered with a presumed solution to the problem being criticized is simply a mere noise that is intended to cause a pandemonium or controversy rather than addressing the situation at hand.

In view of the aforementioned facts, everyone at all levels including political leaders, followers, craftsmen, traders, businessmen, teachers and public servants, as the case may be, is expected to take criticism seriously regardless of the circumstance in order not to abuse the tool, which has proven beyond any reasonable doubt to be the engine room of any nation-building. Think about it!

Extrajudicial Killings

STEMMING THE ALARMING RATE OF EXTRA-JUDICIAL KILLINGS

An extrajudicial killing is the murder of a person for an alleged crime or offence carried out either by an individual or a group of persons without any official backing, directive or supervision from a court of law of competent jurisdiction through a legal proceeding.

Extrajudicial killing or punishment also known as ‘Jungle justice’, which is usually carried out either by a government agency or an angry mob or sometimes by an individual, has been on the rampage in recent times in such a manner that it requires a severe and drastic approach by the apt authority.

Extrajudicial punishment used to be a feature of politically repressive regimes, but lately even self-proclaimed or internationally recognized democracies have been known to use the measure under certain circumstances. But the truth of the matter is that, it is illegal and barbaric; hence, unacceptable.

Such actions typically happen quickly with security forces acting on a covert basis, performed in such a way as to avoid a massive public outcry and/or international criticism that would reflect badly on the state or country. Sometimes, the killers are agents outside the government; some criminal organizations have reportedly been employed for such a purpose.

In most cases, it is carried out by uniformed security forces in order to punish a victim, but under circumstances that would make it appear as self-defence or suicide. The former can be accomplished by planting recently fired weapons near the dead body, while the latter is observed via fabrication of evidence suggesting suicide. In such cases, it could be difficult to prove that the perpetrators acted wrongly.

Because of the dangers inherent in armed confrontation, even police or soldiers as the case may be, who might strongly prefer to take an enemy or a suspect alive may still be tempted to kill under a certain circumstance to protect themselves or the affected civilians, and potentially cross the line into extrajudicial murder.

In some cases, someone may be declared missing having been murdered by a certain group. A disappearance occurs where someone who is believed to have been targeted for extrajudicial execution is nowhere to be found. Their ultimate fate is thereafter unknown or never fully confirmed.  

Extrajudicial punishment may be planned and carried out by a particular branch of a state without informing other branches, or even without having been ordered to commit such atrocity. Other branches sometimes tacitly approve of the punishment in retrospect; they can also genuinely disagree with it depending on the circumstances, especially when complex intra-government or internal policy struggles exist within a state’s policymaking apparatus.

In times of war, natural disaster, societal collapse, anarchy, or in the absence of an established system of criminal justice, as the case may be, there may be increased incidences of extrajudicial punishment. In such circumstance, the Police or military personnel may be unofficially authorized to punish severely individuals involved in looting, riot as well as other violent acts such as massacre, especially if caught red-handed. This measure is sometimes itself corrupted resulting in the death of innocent persons who probably were just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

More so, someone whose case is in court may be brutally murdered in cold blood by the aggrieved party or the plaintiff owing to inconsequential and unbearable delay of the court proceeding/hearing. This is why the various judicial custodians must be more proactive in discharging their official duties come rain come shine.

Currently, the most alarming aspect of extrajudicial killing or punishment is the one being carried out by a group of civilians referred to as ‘Angry mob.’ It is usually observed on the street, inside a motor park, or in a market arena when one is accused of stealing, pick-pocketing, or any form of jungle crime.

The mob often accomplish their mission by setting the suspect ablaze at the scene of the incident using fuel and condemned tyre, prior to the arrival of security personnel. The most painful part of the illogical act is that, an innocent person is mostly mistaken for the person who actually committed the crime.

It is worth noting that constitutionally if a suspect is allegedly guilty of a certain crime, he or she shall remain innocent until otherwise proven by any court of competent jurisdiction. Prior to the pronouncement of the final judgement by the concerned judicial custodian, the accused person/group is meant to be free in respect to civil cases or to be kept under the care of the appropriate security agency regarding a severe criminal case. Another fact we must note is that, sparing the life of a culprit would help the relevant security agency to apprehend his/her partners in crime.

Against this backdrop, and considering the enormous negative implication of extrajudicial punishments, there is a pressing need for the appropriate authorities to look inwards toward eradicating the anomaly, which has caused an unquantifiable damage to countries where it is harboured, particularly Nigeria.

Thus, special court especially mobile courts ought to be instituted to try anyone accused of any form of extrajudicial act without any fear or favour irrespective of his/her status or age. On their part, the various security agents must be fast enough while attending to any security call/invitation and should endeavour to live up to the expectation at all cost.

In addition, the civil society is required to sensitize the general public on the dangers of taking the law into their hands; they ought to be made to understand that no individual or group is above the law. By so doing, justice would be given its due regard thereby ushering in a country we have longed awaited. Think about it!

Matrimonial Battering

MATRIMONIAL BATTERING ON THE RAMPAGE

      

Battering is a pattern of bahaviour used to establish power and control over another person through fear and intimidation, which usually include the use of violence. In the same vein, Matrimonial Battering is a situation whereby a woman is battered by her legitimate husband.

Battering, which is indeed a criminal act, takes place when a person believes he/she is entitled to control another. In recent times, the most worrisome form of battering is the one that happens between married couples, which has degenerated into an alarming state.

Battering of a family member can take many forms. It may include emotional, economic and sexual abuses as well as isolation, use of male privilege, employment of threats and a variety of other behaviours used to maintain fear, intimidation and power. In all cultures, the perpetrators are most commonly the men of the family; suffice it to say that, women are mostly the victims of matrimonial battering or violence.

Among all forms of battering, it could be classified into two major types namely, physical battering and psychological battering. Physical battering is a situation where the abuser employs physical attacks or aggression, while psychological battering involves verbal abuse/harassment, excessive possessiveness, segregation of the woman from friends and family, deprivation of physical and economic resources, and destruction of the woman’s personal property. It is worth noting that physical battering, which is prevalent in most African particularly Nigerian homes, can also lead to psychological trauma.

Battering, which has taken a different dimension in several families in Nigeria, can be attributed to immaturity, alcoholism, hot temperament, infidelity or lack of love. Other causes include lack of male child, alleged barrenness, selfishness, influence and ignorance. Among these, the most prevalent factor that leads to battering is lack of love because if one truly loves his wife/partner, he can never make any attempt to hurt her even when he is under the influence of alcohol.

Survey shows that battering remains the major cause of the ongoing high rate of divorce or estrangement among married persons in Nigeria. Needless to say that if an adequate and drastic measure/approach is not taken towards curbing the anomaly, it is likely to render millions of our children vulnerable in near future thereby affecting their upbringing.

Acknowledging that marriage is the most intimate relationship two human beings can experience, second only to a relationship with God and that it is the only intimacy that brings out the best in someone, there is no gain saying that everyone has a responsibility towards preventing or eradicating battering or any form of domestic violence against women.

We can individually or collectively join in the crusade aimed at ending domestic violence or abuses against women, which has brought a colossal upheaval in various homes, by challenging any thought or attitude that allows such act to prevail in our respective societies.  

Let’s be conscious of the fact that, a woman who is suffering from matrimonial battering can do anything to protect herself with a view that such aberration would continue to repeat itself. In one of her books titled ‘Trauma and Recovery’, Judith Lewis Herman – an author and psychiatrist stated that, “The guarantee of safety in a battering relationship can never be based upon a promise from the perpetrator no matter how heartfelt. Rather, it must be based upon the self-protective capability of the victim…” She went further to state that, “Until the victim has developed a detailed and realistic contingency plan and has demonstrated her ability to carry it out, she will remain in fear and danger of repeated abuse.”

Considering the aforementioned primary attributes of marriage battering, it is obvious that anyone irrespective of status or age is liable to patronize the monster. To this end; first and foremost, parents or guardians must ensure that their children or wards as the case may be have attained a reasonable maturity stage before they would be encouraged to settle down or get married. In view of this, we ought to acknowledge that maturity is not only based on the age of the parties involved but including their level of exposure or experience.

As regards child bearing, acknowledging the tradition or desire of most men from this part of the world that a marriage that is yet to boast of a male child or a child at all is useless, our men must be meant to understand that a child is a gift from God and not by the making of their wives as they presume. In other words, anyone who is yet to have a male child should remain steadfast in his faith in God, and must note at all times that a woman cannot be confirmed or proven to be barren unless it is stated by her creator.

Inter alia, we ought to always have it at the back of our minds that marriage is “For better, for worse” as written in the Holy books. The religious organizations have a very vital role to play in this regard.

Above all, there is an urgent need for the law makers to enact a law that would assign a capital punishment to anyone found guilty of matrimonial battering or any form of violence/abuse against a woman. A stitch in time, they say, saves nine. Think about it!

2015 World Public Service Day

ACKNOWLEDGING THE REWARD OF STEWARDSHIP AND ACCOUNTABILITY AS THE WORLD PUBLIC SERVICE DAY IS CELEBRATED TODAY TUESDAY JUNE 23, 2015

      

         

A public service is a service provided by government to the people living within its ambit or jurisdiction, either directly through the public sector or by financing provision of services. The term is associated with a social consensus usually expressed via democratic elections that certain services ought to be available to all, irrespective of their income.

        

Even where public services are neither publicly provided nor publicly financed, for social and political reasons, they are usually subject to regulation going beyond that applying to most economic sectors. More so, public service is a course that can be studied at the tertiary institutions of learning. Common examples of public services units include the schools, armed forces, paramilitary bodies, fire brigade, health centres, and paramedics.

        

Public services are regarded as very important services, that for moral reasons, their universal provision ought to be guaranteed. They may be linked to fundamental human rights such as the right to water and the right to electricity, just as ‘service’ simply implies helping others with their specific need or want.

        

The term ‘Public services’ or ‘Services of general interest’ often includes education, health care, environmental protection, security, public utilities, law enforcement, postal service, public broadcasting, public library, public transportation, public housing, social services, telecommunications, town planning, and public sanitary services, just to mention but a few.

        

Any public servant, regardless of his or her status, is expected to stick strongly and passionately to the basic ethics or modus operandi of public service. A public servant, in any circumstance, is required to be sincere, trustworthy, transparent, punctual to duties, humble, respectable, serious-minded, vision-driven, accountable, unbiased, hardworking, and above all god-fearing.

         

For instance, government officials serve the people thereby managing the resources of others as stipulated by the law. With respect to the nature of this kind of stewardship, there is an expectation from the public that in conducting daily activities, the officials will practise fairness and equity. They are also expected to maintain openness in their activities to ensure that they are operating within the public’s perception of what is right and in line with the mandate of the constitution guiding their services.

        

Public officials are meant to see themselves as stewards rather than masters, as well as treat their respective jobs as means of helping people instead of dominating them. Public servants ought to note at all times that even a small percentage of misbehaviour on their part can cause a vast amount of harm or damage to the society they are serving.

         

Most importantly, public office holders should understand that certain absolute principles, such as honesty and transparency, are meant to be obeyed regardless of the consequences. Honesty or transparency is the primary product of one’s conscience. It is obvious that one who has cheated on his/her conscience has equally cheated nature; needless to say that the person must surely be visited by the law of karma, which states that ‘every work/action has a reward’ or ‘as you sow, so shall you reap’.

        

It is appalling and pathetic that currently, several public servants in Nigeria, especially the political office holders are not just cheats, but wolves in sheep clothing. The persons/officers in question are yet to realize that stewardship and accountability, which have an eternal reward, are meant to be the watchword of any public servant at all cost. This set of people is not just cankerworm to the treasury of the society/community involved, but remains the only nightmare faced by the society.

        

Most disturbingly, they see embezzlement of public funds, truancy, or lateness to duties, as a way of life. They often consider time management as an unreasonable and inconsequential factor in their everyday life. Most of them parade themselves like people who are beyond punishment, forgetting that no one escapes the consequences of his/her actions. This action of impunity is the singular reason they invariably litter the workers’ payroll with names of nonexistent beings widely known as ‘Ghost workers’.

        

Today Tuesday June 23, the international community is celebrating the 2015 World Public Service Day. In its resolution, the United Nations (UN) General Assembly designated 23^rd June each year as World Public Service Day. The Day intends to celebrate the value and virtue of public service to the community, highlight the contribution of public service in the development process, recognize the work of public servants, as well as encourage young people to pursue careers in the public sector. The annual observance of the Public Service Day highlights the invaluable contributions of public servants and administrators in our efforts to build a better world for all.

        

As Nigeria joins the rest of the world to celebrate the World Public Service Day, I enjoin every public servant as well as the prospective ones in the country to acknowledge that the reward for unalloyed stewardship and accountability lasts for eternity, hence ought not to be overlooked for posterity sake. Think about it!

2015 World Refugee Day (Aired News-Commentary)

COMBATING CAUSES OF ALL FORMS OF CRISES AS THE 2015 WORLD REFUGEE DAY IS MARKED TODAY SATURDAY JUNE 20

      

         

A refugee can be described as a person who has been forced to leave his or her country due to persecution, which could be attributed to his/her race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or social affiliation, or as a result of disaster, either natural or manmade, such as massacre, genocide, war, inferno, earthquake, terrorism, climate change, and famine, just to mention but a few. In some cases, the internally displaced individuals within a certain country can also be referred to as ‘Refugees’.

         

Today Saturday June 20, the global community is commemorating the World Refugee Day. On 4^th of December 2000, the United Nations (UN) General Assembly in its unanimous Resolution decided that, from 2001, June 20 of every year would be celebrated as World Refugee Day. In the resolution, the General Assembly noted that 2001 marked the golden jubilee or the 50^th anniversary of the 1951 Convention relating to the status of Refugees.

        

Each year on June 20, the United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) and countless civic groups around the world host World Refugee Day events in order to draw public attention to the millions of refugees and people who are internally displaced worldwide.

       

Recently, the Bornu State government in Nigeria cried foul as well as sought for the financial assistance of the international community in regard to the alarming number of displaced persons recorded in the state owing to the ongoing insurgency of the Boko Haram sect in the area. Such incident is not only peculiar to Nigeria, but to many other countries in the world.

    

Statistics show that not less than forty-three million people worldwide are presently displaced as a result of conflict and persecution, which is the highest number since the middle of 1990s. More than fifteen million of the aforementioned figure are refugees who fled their home countries, while the rest are people who remain displaced by conflict within their own homelands and they are generally regarded as ‘Internally Displaced Persons’.

      

Worldwide, refugees have really suffered an untold hardship in the respective camps or localities they are being hosted or they found themselves; they mostly lack the three basic needs of mankind, which remain food, clothing and shelter. Most of them often feared killed by deadly diseases, or sometimes due to the unbearable hazards attached to the environment they reside in.

        

It is worthy to note that, most of the beggars found on the major roads or streets of most cities in Nigeria, likewise other countries, are refugees. A good number of them who hail from the neighbouring countries to include Niger Republic, Chad, Benin Republic and Cameroon, migrated to Nigeria in search of a lasting succour. This implies that more than half of the world’s refugees are in urban environments, not in camps. This set of people invariably fall victim to human trafficking, which is currently on rampage in several countries.

        

No doubt, displaced persons are found virtually in all the nations across the globe. Since refugees are mainly victims of either manmade or natural disasters, there is a compelling need to take appropriate and drastic measures that would thoroughly address all forms of disasters or conflicts witnessed by mankind.

        

It is noteworthy that, even the natural disasters such as earthquake, depletion of the Ozone layer, climate change, erosion, and what have you, are mostly attributable to human/manmade actions or activities. Needless to say that, any event that could lead to displacement of individuals from their places of residence or country of origin, can be averted by the concerned persons or authorities, as the case may be.

        

To this end, inferno for instance, which usually takes place as a result of man’s carelessness or lackadaisical attitude, can be prevented by sensitizing the public on the fundamental actions that could lead to such disaster. In the same vein, people ought to be professionally directed on where, when, and how to erect various structures both residential and industrial  as well as in the case of drilling of boreholes in order to help avoid future occurrence of earthquake and other related crises.

        

There is also need for legal backing in respect to prevention of the various uncalled attitudes or practices including discrimination, extremism, racism, ethnicity, human rights violation, et cetera, that can result to a life-threatening crisis such as insurgency, terrorism or war. Hence, the bill concerning prevention of terrorism acts that is presently lying on the floor of the National Assembly ought to be given a speedy hearing by the current law makers with a view to passing it into law in earnest.

       

As Nigeria joins the rest of the world to mark the fifteenth (15^th) commemoration of the World Refugee Day, I call on the various civil society organizations as well as religious bodies to embark on a massive and rigorous awareness crusade that would educate the entire public on the dangers of any form of crisis, which will go a long way to bring a holistic attitudinal change among the overall citizenry. Think about it!
