What is cultism its causes, effects and how to curb the menace

The cultism causes are people search for responsibility, satisfaction of a person's needs and wants, security and finding social identity.
The effects are possibilities of death, abuse due to the cult activities, can disrupt schooling, expulsion and physical injuries. 
To Curb the menace, the Federal Government of Nigeria enacted the decree 47 of 1989 where any cultist guilty will be imprisoned. NGOs also helped our in the campaign through educating students about what the cults are and what it can do to them. There was also religious education where to seek enlightenment and spiritual awakening.

Idisagree because it would have harmed our whole society. starting from the madness of the civilians to the mass destruction of towns.
