Devastated Father Orders Police to Execute His Own Son After Cultism Arrest

A shocking revelation by the Inspector-General of Police has shed light on the intense emotional damage secret cults inflict on Nigerian families. Recounting a recent law enforcement operation, the police chief shared the startling moment a father disowned his child in the most drastic manner possible upon learning of the young man’s arrest for cultism.

When officers contacted the young suspect’s family to inform them of his detention and ongoing investigation, they anticipated the typical parental reaction—tears, pleas for mercy, or frantic attempts to arrange legal representation. Instead, the team was met with raw outrage. Overcome with embarrassment and deep frustration over his son’s illicit lifestyle, the heart-wrenching father shouted back at the officers, demanding they “kill him” rather than return him to society.

This extreme response underscores a growing wave of parental fatigue across communities struggling against cultism, gang rivalries, and youth violence. Many parents, after years of investing in their children’s education and well-being, find themselves broken when those same children join violent groups that bring terror to their neighborhoods and shame to their family names.

Law enforcement authorities emphasized that this incident serves as a grim wake-up call to youths flirting with cult membership. Beyond the immediate legal consequences and danger to personal safety, involvement in cult activities destroys the bond between parents and children, leaving behind broken homes and unimaginable grief. Police continue to urge community leaders, educators, and guardians to remain vigilant and guide young people away from peer pressure and criminal networks before it is too late.
