Addressing the students during the conference, the Assistant Chief Safety Officer of the University, Mr. Wilfred Agbu, urged the entire students to shun cultism and other anti-social behaviour.
He also charged the students to deem it necessary to enter the vehicles at motor parks whenever they were travelling to avoid being kidnapped.

In an interview after the conference, the commandant of “Man O War” of the institution, Godwill Bobzach said, the purpose of the conference was to enlighten the students on the activities of the cultists in the University.
He said, the leadership of “Man O War” command would continue to partner with the Safety Unit to fight against cultism as well as hard drug being taken by the students.

In his speech, the Deputy Commandant of “Man O War” in the University, Onaji Lovis Agbo, urged Nigerian Security Agencies not to hesitate in waging war against cultism, kidnapping and drug abuse for the benefit of the students in the institutions of higher learning in our country.
