THE IMPENDING FALL OF KWARA COMMUNITIES: Perceived Problems Vs Actual Damage
Barrister Sir, @egi_nupe
Perhaps I should use this medium to put this thing into proper perspective: whatever you currently know about it, the ongoing damage is farrrrrr worse than that.
I was born, bred “and buttered” in Ilorin; I grew up living and well-accustomed with at Sango – Oyun – Apata Yakuba – Ẹlẹkọyangan – Kwara Poly – Oke Ose Axes.
• Pre-COVID-19 Era:
These communities are notorious for early initiation and participation of teenagers in thuggery and cultism activities (mostly the boys) and waywardness (the girls).
• COVID-19 Era Revolution:
This was the period when “yahoo-yahoo & benefit boys” outburst replaced hooliganism, hence, these communities took a new characterization — more than 70% of the boys became either yahoo boys, or their accomplices (their Alfas, clergies, etc), and the girls, mostly prostitutes, and similar ordeals.
During this period, some parents with high spiritual values and disciplines were still able to raise some obedient and upright kids.
However, I could see the projections and prognosis of these deeply-rooted diseases, and I knew the future was highly unpromising, as indiscipline and crime (yahoo and prostitution) were being praised, and uprightness, castigated and mocked.
In 2023 and 2024, there was a pathetic “pregnancy outbreak” in these communities. Many girls (including minors, 16 years and below) got pregnant from serial sexual exposure, prostitution and even unreported rapes.
(I made some tweets about this last year and this year: I'll attach their links in the comments)
Other parents, due to societal pressure and the normalisation of these immoralities and indiscipline, either pressure their children with sayings like: “no be your mates dey do so-and-so for their parents” (and here I am talking about teenagers building houses, buying cars for their parents, etc, with obviously illegal funds), while some even take their wards to these “pablo brothers” or “fetish Alfas, Pastors, Olóògùn” to initiate them or do rituals for them.
• NEOLIFE Domination Era:
Between late 2024 and this year (2025), NEOLIFE, GNLD and FHG people saw an indisciplined and suitable market for the incubation and propagation of their ordeals.
They rented houses en masse, moved their offices and work centres to all these areas, infiltrating and capitalising on these existing indiscipline.
What makes Neolife Outbreak Particularly Pathetic?
1. The few disciplined children and teenagers have been fully hijacked from parental control and watch. They have sold them dreams, gave them “easy-buy loan phones” (to get their interest), and breeding them for unforseen failures.
2. They are catching them really really young. Most of these boys are 15 years old and below. They bait them with phones, and promises to teach them and make them excel through graphic design and other digital skills.
3. They are sending them out of school and entrepreneurship. Most of these kids have now stopped dreaming about quality education, some even abandon their hard-acquired entrepreneurial skills and handiwork to pursue Neolife.
4. Due to high illiteracy and lack of exposure, they've also been able to brainwash some parents to voluntarily commit their children to them, and these parents are hard to do so.
THESE PROBLEMS ARE MORE THAN I HAVE SIMPLIFIED IN THIS ARTICLE ‼️

Dear @followKWSG and @RealAARahman,
Kwara State Polytechnic has been the largest harbour of indiscipline and immoralities in Ilorin, and if the Kwara State Government and School Management do not take over, WILL DESTROY OUR HARMONY.
With regards and patriotism,
