A man called Stone| Principals and Principalities Podcast

الوصف

In 1990, a well-raised boy from a good family enrolled at the University of Ibadan. He was not poor. He was not desperate. He had every reason to walk a straight path and become someone great but instead, he took an oath, changed his name to Stone — and he became one of the most dangerous cultists his community had ever seen.In this episode of Principals & Principalities, host Ayomide Odubonojo-Kinoshi tells the story of Stone — a young man whose life was influenced by Nigeria's cult underworld. A world built on blood oaths, military weapons, and a tertiary principals that looked the other way.This week we trace how a boy became Stone. We examine the 1952 origins of Nigerian cultism, the military's calculated arming of campus confraternities, and the rituals of binding that made leaving more dangerous than staying. We hear from someone who knew him — who watched it happen — and never forgot.This episode asks the question that defines this podcast: In Nigeria, is crime ever just crime?Listen wherever you get your podcasts, and follow us on social media for behind-the-scenes research, upcoming cases, and episode drops.Follow us On⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Us on⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Twitter ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠(x)
