Lagos State House of Assembly has passed a new bill to start punishing the parent of any Arrested Cult members.
The bill was passed on Monday through a voice vote conducted by the Speaker, Mudashiru Obasa, NAN reports.
Obasa said the house included punishment for parents of cultists found guilty of cultism in the amendment of the Anti-Cultism Law submitted by the State government.
The speaker explained that this would further prohibit unlawful societies and cultism. David Setonji, representing Badagry Constituency II, described the issue as a major challenge.
Setonji advised parents and guardians to take proper care of their children by ensuring they complied with societal norms and values.
