The Police in Anambra state have
warned parents to look out for seven signs which they described as tell-tale
signs that their wards were getting involved in cultism.
The Spokesperson of the Anambra
State Police Command, SP Haruna Mohammed, in a press release identified seven early signs that show a young person was taking to
cultism.
They include: late night, love
for music, love for specific colours, difficulty in exposing the body,
isolation, anger and smoking, and making new friends.
Mohammed said, “Early detection
of a child’s engagement in cultism can help stop the full involvement of that
child in the evil act and also save the life of the child from impending
dangers that lies ahead.
“Bad friends contribute a lot to
joining cultism. Try to know the friends your child goes out with most times,
find out their details and find out where they hang out. Doing this will help
you to be sure your child is not in the company of friends that are cultist
because sooner or later the child may join them in their evil acts.
“If your son or daughter is the
jovial type that loves keeping company but suddenly starts keeping to him or
herself watch out. This is very common among some cultists as they love to be
alone.
“You can do a check on the type
of music your child has gotten newly and loves listening to over and over
again. Some of these songs are fraternity songs containing their chants and
anthems.”
Haruna added that, “Some parents
are not aware that their children smoke under their roofs even in their private
rooms. Check your children’s rooms when they are not around and do it into
detail, checking every corner in the room. You can also check the fingers or
lips of the child to see any strange darkening. If your child gets angry at the
slightest provocation that is not usual with the child, it can be a sign.
“Take note of your child if he or
she has suddenly fallen in love with a particular color. For example, the child
can wear a color for a week or can’t do without the color in any form of
dressing. This can be a danger signal you need to look into.
“Cultists don’t like to expose
their body especially the back because they have some wounds they don’t like to
expose to people around them. Watch if your child suddenly finds it hard to
undress in your presence or goes to the bathroom with clothes on and come out
of the bathroom.”
