The Director-General, National Council for Arts and Culture, Mr Olusegun Runsewe, has joined other Nigerians to condemn the alleged murder of a final-year student of the Lagos State University. The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the victim, Miss Favour Daley-Oladele, a final-year student of LASU was reportedly killed in Osun State by her friend and her friend’s mother for money ritual. Runsewe said the rise among Nigerian youths’ insatiable quest for money through rituals had never been part of our culture. “Killing somebody for money ritual is never business and has nothing to do with being poor or lacking anything good in life. “If this goes on unchecked, it will destroy the entire fabric of the family system and the Nigerian culture of love for one another.
