THE SUPREME EIYE CONFRATERNITY The supreme eiye confraternity is a fraternity based in almost all the higher schools of learning in Nigeria.The Eiye group as it was called was founded by three students of the University of Ibadan to uphold the core nature of the African culture with a commitment to excellence. The history of campus confraternity can be traced to 1952 when Nobel Laureate, Wole Soyinka and six of his friends called the G7, formed the National Association of Seadogs a.k.a. Pyrates Confraternity, to fight against injustice and abolish foreign conventions.An offshoot called The Buccaneers a.k.a. National Association of Sea Lords was founded by Dr. Bolaji Carew in 1972 after he was expelled by the Pyrates Confraternity.The Eiye confraternity, which calls itself National Association of Airlords, was also founded by the likes of Professor Jide Osuntokun, a historian and diplomat, Dele Nwakpele, Bode Sowunmi and Delu Lipede, among others, in 1963.A study conducted by the National Universities Commission, NUC, in 2001 revealed that there are over 33 secret cults and associations operating in the universities across the country.The symbols of eiye are foremost in the minds of all members which is to uphold the history and roots of the African culture.
