CLIQUE:
Members of confraternities hardly mingle with non-members, and this supports the saying show me who your friends and I will show you who you’re.

Cult members move around with members for so many reasons which include being informed on time if there are issues (hit) in the area. Another reason is for protection, for guidance (new members), etc.

There are cult groups that their members don’t move alone, in fact, it is in their constitution for members to move in groups for reasons in line with the ones mentioned above. Eg “two-two” cult group.

DRESS CODE: – Ways to Identify Cultists | Cult Groups in Nigeria

The way you dress is the way you will be addressed. This is true because on campus, for instance, cult members are seen displaying their confraternity symbols.

Cult members send signals to people around, but because not everyone can identity these symbols, they often fall victim to harassment. There are different colors, symbols, and dress codes for each confraternity.

HANDSHAKE:

This particular one is obvious, as confraternities have different handshakes, and members could be identified through that.

Most confraternities have their handshake as the holding of the two palms so firmly (anchor), while others cross their two hands across their chest as a form of axe, and some shake hands and leg.

NICKNAMES: 

Cult members are given nicknames on their initiation day, which will serve as their means of identification. Some names can be funny, while others are just randomly meaningless but people are advised not to make fun of these names as that could provoke them and lead to something else.

Only members are to call these names and only their confraternity members can explain the meaning of each name.

SCARS:

The initiation of new members does not take the form of party galore. New members are beaten on initiation day to signify membership.

They are giving different cuts with cutlasses, axe, etc. This in a way to harden their hearts and show no mercy on the opponent.

LIFESTYLE: 

Most people that belong to dangerous confraternities usually live life so simple and quit. sometimes, they are easy-going to the extent that people may never find out. these sets of people usually disappear from school spend weeks off-campus and no one will know their way about.

It is advisable that one maintains his/her lane, does not underrate anyone on campus, and be mindful of what you in public.
