Open Letter To Seun On Putting Islam For Muslims Section Threads On Front Page by Wizeboy(m): 5:28pm On Oct 02, 2014
Dear Seun Osewa,

We write this open letter to you, the owner of Nairaland.com to express our disappointment and objection to your barring threads located in Islam for Muslims section from the front page of your website (without restrictions).

We want to let you know that most of us participate actively on other threads in other sections without breaking the rules and find it disheartening that we cannot express our beliefs on your forum without been marginalised whilst people of other faiths have their threads on front page without any discrimination.

We learnt that you decided to ban Muslim threads from front page due to many hidden comments and bans that are given to erring members who break your forum rules by posting insults or seeking to derail threads.

This we find to be unfair and unjust as there are many hidden comments in the Politics section with bans handed out to rule-breakers. Yet, threads from that section appear on front page virtually every day.

Whether a thread hits front page or not, some people might still break Nairaland rules and you can easily find threads that are not on front page with hidden comments.

Therefore, your refusal to let our threads hit the front page for all to see has not achieved your desired result as it only portrays you as a biased and unfair decision-maker.

We appreciate what you have achieved with Nairaland thus far but expect that you would build it as a platform that is fair to all regardless of faith.

Therefore, we request that you reverse this unfair and unjust policy of yours and instead ensure that the forum rules are implemented fairly at all times.

We hope you will consider this open letter and act accordingly towards being fair to everybody.

Best Regards,

Seun please your attention is needed here...

It is disheartening that no single Islam thread on front page. Check my profile since I have joined your forum (Nairaland). I have never been banned or make unscrupulous comment to anybody likewise many others here.

Why would people committing the offence be justify while our innocent thread is been punished. This is purely discrimination, I don't really mind if you ban me because of this, is time you should start acting indiscriminately without fear or favour.

Many comments are been hiding on your forum each day and you never ban such section on front page.

Peace

The OP spoke for us all.

It is hoped that Mr Seun, in the spirit of fairness, looks into this request pationately.

A blanket ban on "everything Islam" may also be seen as a tacit approval by You to label Islam as the endangered specie. This is unhealthy!

It may also be conceived as a pseodu support to ill-minded individuals who deliberately turn Islamic threads violent so as to get banned and raise dust therefrom.

Allaah loves the Just!

The ones that make FP on Fridays are not from Islamic section abi, the ones that make it during your festivals are not from Islamic section too right? How many thread about the "other faith" do you see on FP on a day that is not their worships day or special event? Do you know how many made it during Ramadan? or is their any other section belonging solely to muslims apart from Islamic section that we don't know of?. You should have made your point without roping in people of "other faith" I don't give a damn whichever you had in mind.
I want to believe you are making known of your own personal grievance not making FP since Jan last year. There's no biggie in FP they don't pay people for it. And there are mods in that section, you are not speaking for muslims here but yourself.

The truth is that Mr seun osewa thus far has not really justified why the Muslim threads haven't been hitting front page for sometimes now.

Despite the fact that Muslims have served meritoriously and still doing so on Nairaland.

One thing you should realize is that many nairalanders just visit the front page, and don't bother visiting other sections. That's why most at times, threads on the front page get lots of attention, contributions etc.

When you decide to isolate the Islam for Muslim sections because of bans, negative comments by others, and your thought that Islam/ Muslims are violent is totally uncalled for.

No matter how you try hard to hide the section, those who still want to be mischievous do still come there to do what they are good at.

So, i as a Nairaland Muslim, together with my brethren humbly request that You Reconsider your action of not putting our threads on frontpage , and be fair in your judgment and do what's right.

Let me ask you this question:
When last did you see Muslim threads hit front-page?

It used to be so before now every Friday, but seun just decided to stop it abruptly after making only guests to view it.

There's a biggie in front-page because some people don't bother to visit other sections except the front-page.

So, we need to enlighten our fellow Muslim brothers and educate other non Muslims about Islam.

So, bro that's why we are clamoring for this.

Actually I think religion is what a man does with his solitude and all man should keep thy religion to thyself in thy section, anything on FP should be fair game and open to opinions, no matter how funny.

Yes, everything on front page is opened to opinions but without breaking the Nairaland rules.

How do you justify, when someone bursts to Islamic threads and start calling Muslim different names like Boko haram members, terrorists. Likewise insult Allah, his messenger etc.

Be honest bro, is that an opinion?

So, in that case the moderator has no choice than to ban or remove the post.

That's it bro

It is pertinent to disclose this issue to the sole proprietor(Seun) of this forum, all sections made nairaland to be what it is today, we are all part of nairaland & segregation won't bring unity on this forum rather disparity.
I would enjoin Seun to have a rethink & make a right decision towards harmonising this forum.
This is a business enterprise and there should be effective management of all units/sections so as to accomplish the aims & objectives of the business.

Thank you.
