The Chairperson, Anti-cultism Campaign Committee, University of Ibadan Centre for Social Orientation (CenSo), Prof. Helen A. Labeodan has urged students of The International School, Ibadan (ISI) to speak up whenever they are harassed, intimidated, or bullied by their seniors, classmates, or any individual.
She gave the charge while addressing the students during an Anti-cultism campaign visit to the school.
Prof. Labeodan emphasized that harassment, intimidation, and bullying typically have detrimental effects on the victim’s psyche.
She, however, added that perpetrators may face consequences later in life because “everything that goes around comes around.”
