The Vice Chancellor, Lagos State University (LASU), Prof. John Obafunwa has admonished new students of the university to eschew cultism, noting that the act never gives protection to anyone.

Addressing the freshmen at the 2013/2014 matriculation ceremony, held at the university auditorium, Obafunwa said: “Parents should warn their children to steer clear of cult related activities.

Cultism is evil and those who participate in it are not only wreaking havoc on themselves but on the society.”
