There are about 180 cult groups in Nigeria, says a non-governmental organization (NGO)-Peace on Campus Initiative (PCI).
The group said the figure was obtained by its intelligent unit in each zone, state and Local Government Area (LGAS).
In Nigeria, a confraternity is a group that is nominally
university-based, though 'street and creek' confraternities began in the 1990s.
The first confraternity, the Pyrates Confraternity was created as a social
organization for promising students.
However,
as new confraternities were formed, they became increasingly violent through
the 1970s and 1980s. By the 1990s, many confraternities largely operated as
criminal gangs, called "campus cults" in Nigeria. Besides normal
criminal activity, confraternities have been linked to political violence, as
well as the conflict in the Niger Delta.
In no
particular order, here are the "Top 7 Confraternities in Nigeria and their
History"
Pyrate
Confraternity
Ahoi-Seadog
In
1952, Wole Soyinka and a group of six friends (Ralph Opara, Ikhehare
Aig-Imokhuede, Sylvanus Egbuchie, Nathaniel Oyelola, Pius Oleghe, Olumuyiwa
Awe) formed the Pyrate Confraternity at the elite University College, Ibadan,
then part of the University of London. According to the Pyrates, the "Magnificent
Seven", as they called themselves, observed that the university was
populated with wealthy students associated with the colonial powers and a few
poorer students striving in manner and dress to be accepted by the more
advantaged students, while social life was dictated by tribal affiliation.
Soyinka would later note that the Pyrates wanted to differentiate themselves
from "stodgy establishment and its pretentious products in a new
educational institution different from a culture of hypocritical and affluent
middleclass, different from alienated colonial aristocrats". The
organization also known as the National Association of Seadogs (NAS) adopted
the motto "Against all conventions", the skull and crossbones as
their logo, while members adopted confraternity names such as "Cap'n
Blood" and "Long John Silver". When fellow students protested a
proposal to build a railroad across the road leading to the university, fearing
that easier transportation would make the university less exclusive, the Pyrates
successfully ridiculed the argument as elitist. Roughly analogous to the
fraternities and sororities of North America, the Pyrates Confraternity proved
popular among students, even after the original members moved on. Membership
was open to any promising male student, regardless of tribe or race, but
selection was stringent and most applicants were denied. For almost 20 years,
the Pyrates were the only confraternity on Nigerian campuses.
Beliefs
and sayings:

In
1972, Bolaji Crew (Code-named “Late Ahoy Rica Ricardo”) and others were
expelled from the Pyrates for failing to meet expected standards. Carew went on
to found the Buccaneers Confraternity (also called the National Associations of
Sea Lords), largely copying the Seadogs' structure, symbols and ceremonies. A
major impetus for the creation of new confraternities was the fact that members
of the new groups simply did not meet the high academic and intellectual
standards set by the Seadogs, and thus considered the original organization to
be elitist.. Different notorious cult groups had emerging without check from
the concerned authority, unleashing terror on humanity and posterity.
