Oseo John Omoruan
This book was written from the author’s personal experience as a member of the Neo Black Movement (Black Axe Confraternity) and the Buccaneers Confraternity in our institutions of higher learning, which today are generally described as cult; Indeed, membership in these groups led to his being rusticated; thereby prolonging the time it took him to acquire a degree (10 years).
Drawing on his personal experience and on what he learnt from his predecessors in these organizations, the author has provided a compelling insight into the oft-shadowy world of campus based ‘cult’ organizations. The book tells us about the hopes of the founding fathers of these ‘cults’, the high ideals which led to the foundations of these groups and how over time these ideals were perverted and the groups degenerated into what today are essentially criminal organizations.
All events mentioned in the book are true events of which the author had personal experience or which were related to him by members who were personally present. The author reveals the whole of the inner workings of these organizations, the leadership structure, and the coded language used by the membership, the songs they sing at their nocturnal meetings etc; all in a bid to tell students the truth about who the original confraternity members were and what they did.
In writing this book, the author seeks to show that the ‘Campus Cults’ as we know them today, are a perverted form of the original organizations and that the perversion is directly related to the destruction of moral and ethical values in the wider society. If the decayed ethics and moral situation in the wider society is not tackled and a sense of moral and ethical well-being restored to the society, then no real change in the phenomenon of campus cultism can be expected.
The author offers his thoughts on how these problems can be tackled. It is not just a law and order problem, but one that reaches into government, school administration and our homes.

This book goes to the foundation of the Nigerian problem, and it reveals the “Campus Cult Mentality” in the behavioural pattern of our leaders.
In this book, it would be discovered that the creation of many African countries meant building a team to support the development and growth of these emerging nations. Those teams were often made up of individuals brought together on various spurious excuses – in effect; this was close to the “Peter Principle” – of promoting one to a level of incompetence, which had led to social upheaval ravaging the African continent today, and is presented in this second book as an ‘anthropomorphic satire’.
