Gov. Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa has advised Nigerian youths to shun cultism and drug abuse in order to become responsible citizens.

According to a statement issued by Mr Fidelis Soriwei, the governor’s Special Adviser on Media Relations, Dickson gave the advice on Monday in Yenagoa at an interactive forum with students of the University of Africa, Toru-Orua.

The governor admonished students to indulge only in activities that would justify their parents’ and government’s investment in their education.

He warned that cultism, drug abuse and other anti-social behaviour were capable of truncating their dream for a great future.
