The fear of cultism drew me close to God but a cousin of mine, Kazia (not her real name), was not as fortunate since she was ignorant of the dangers of being a cultist. If she was not ignorant, she could not have taken the decision that led to her getting paralyse and dropping out of school. Kazia joined a cult on entering a higher institution, she admired the cult and concluded it was a place to belong, not knowing that several cultists eagerly desire to quit, if they could find the way out. She enjoyed the ride as a cultist until the day of reckoning arrived. She and some other cultists went on an operation, but the police chased them when they were done. The police opened fire and some of them sustained injuries. A bullet hit Kazia's spine that left her in a critical condition. Her gang thought she was dead and in order to prevent being implicated they opted to escape with her. She now remain paralysed and out of school.

Adefo (not his real name) comes from a christian background, he was very bright in school. As the only son and hope of the family, his mother tried to meet his needs by all means. He had every prospect of success. Nevertheless, things turn sour in his second year in the university as a medical student. His room mate, a cultist who believed Adefo could use his good look to an advantage, used the occassion of his birthday to invite him out and introduced him to a girl who started visiting him frequently. Next, Adefo started getting letters inviting him to a cult meeting with warning not to disclose the visitation. Out of fear, he went to the meeting and continue attending. From then on, he no longer had enough time for his studies and when exam came, he has to cheat and was cought. During a cult raid after the exam, he was seriously injured. The two cases got to the school authority and he was expelled in his fourth year. His mother collapse on hearing the news. Now after many years of idleness, Adefo lives on outskirt of a town as a motor mechanic apprentice.
