Police take cultism, drug abuse campaign to Ogun secondary schools
The Ogun State Police Command has taken its campaign against cultism and other social vices to six secondary schools in the state.
Coordinator of POCACOV, Ogun State Command, ASP Oluborode Opeyemi, noted that the initiative directly combats the dangers of cultism, substance abuse, and deceptive gang recruitment tactics.
The advocacy, Police Campaign Against Cultism and Other Vices (POCACOV), was organized in partnership with The Global Citizens NG at the All Youth/Secondary Schools Leadership Summit, held in Ifo Local Government Area of the state.
ASP Oluborode urged the youth to take absolute control of their life choices, thoughts, and actions, warning that a lack of self-leadership leaves them vulnerable to negative external influences.
In their separate remarks, Dr. Julius Osimen, who addressed global leadership fundamentals, alongside mental health advocate Mrs. Florence Freddy and scholar Mr. Taiwo Oyedele, delivered specialized sessions on psychological resilience and character development.
Educators and parents were also charged with establishing early intervention monitoring systems to identify and address vulnerable behavioural patterns.
The summit concluded with a mass pledge by the students to reject criminality and act as peer evangelists, actively driving positive transformation and safety within their schools and immediate communities.
DAILY POST reports that the advocacy had over 170 senior secondary school students in attendance.
