This comes as the Commissioner of Police in Ogun State,
Abiodun Alamutu, and the Vice Chancellor of Abia State University (ABSU), Prof.
Onyemachi Ogbulu, warned students of the institution, particularly those
studying at its Ogun State affiliated institutions: Harvarde College in
Abeokuta, the state capital, to shun cultism and approach their studies with
total dedication so as to be profitable to their parents who have invested so
much in them.
The trio of Oloyede, Alamutu, and Ogbulu expressed their
concerns while speaking during the 2023/2024 matriculation ceremony of Harvarde
College, held in Obada-Oko, Ewekoro Local Government Area of Ogun State.
Represented by the Board’s Coordinator in Ogun State, Akeem
Abdul-Hammed, the JAMB Registrar declared that any tertiary institution’s
admission seeker who fails to follow the due process will lead himself or
herself into problems in the future.
Speaking at the event, ABSU’s Vice Chancellor, Ogbulu
declared that the institution would not renege in its war of expulsion, as well
as melting other stiffer penalties against students found to be contravening
the laid down standards on zero tolerance to cultism at the expense of total
academics dedication during the period of their studies in the institution.
With particular reference to poor performance and other
social vices commonly associated with students in tertiary institutions, Ogbulu
specifically admonished matriculating students to stay away from every form of
distractions, stressing that ABSU will not “waste time at showing you the exit
if you will not conform to the university’s standards”.
In his own address, the Ogun CP, Alamutu, lamented the
menace of cultists and other cult related activities across the state,
stressing that the trend has become a serious source of worries to the security
agencies.
