Answer:

Tribalism or ethnicity, religion and corruption are popular clichés used to describe or analyze various forms of anomalies in nation building. In this article, tribalism and ethnicity are used interchangeably, because of its varying use to different people, but refers to same subject in the discourse. According to Wikipedia, tribalism is the state of being organized in, or advocating for, a tribe or tribes. In terms of conformity, tribalism may also refer in popular cultural terms to a way of thinking or behaving in which people are more loyal to their tribe than to their friends, their country, or any other social group. Tribalism has been defined in engaged theory as a 'way of being' based upon variable combinations of kinship-based organization, reciprocal exchange, oral communication, and analogical enquiry. It is defined as “a label for social groups who feel a distinct sense of difference by virtue of common culture and descent”  

This subject is crucial because, while tribal societies have been pushed to the edges of globalization, tribalism is arguably undiminished; because it is founded upon intense feelings of common identity that leads people to feel tribally connected. It is often more about “feeling” of commonality than actual commonality; and that is why it is as powerful as religion in Africa.

Cultism is an association of people who are under an oath to support them spiritually, physically and morally. Their admission, registrations and forms of worship are sacred. They have various signs and signals which they use to recognize each other wherever they see each other.

"Heard from the news yesterday about the gruesome murder of five supposed cultist in a university in the south-south region of the country. It made me reminisce my time at the University of Lagos. It was almost annually that students are wounded and killed few weeks to the exam in what was suspected as a cult related attack. It annoys me that youths, who are supposed to be leaders tomorrow are virtually wasting their lives daily.  

Parents have a lot of role to play in curbing the rate at which cultism is ravaging our societies. Parents have to know that there is more to upbringing a child than money. Most parents waste too much of their time chasing money, leaving their siblings at home to maids.
