Politicians all over Nigeria have a way of using cultists as thugs to help them with their dirty work. They often use cultists for ballot box snatching, destruction of election materials, and assassinations.

Some persons accuse these politicians of financing most cult groups for personal reasons like getting rid of political opponents or gaining more power themselves.
