On behalf of the shoeless one and the broke one, I endorse this!!!! Look at all of them screaming freedom of speech! Majority of u screaming freedom of speech are either in their work place or back from work. This is Seun's workplace and the last time i checked Nairaland is not a PLC. If you can't comment without insulting the government of the day(It might be APC 2mrw), quit the forum. Once majority of you had quit and Seun sees that the fortune of Nairaland is dwindling he will know what to do 5 Likes |

The Iranians arrest their citizens and deal with them on islamic laws based on what they say on twitter but has the iranians called for the end of twitter? It amazes me that an international forum like nairaland will have so many rigid and moribund laws which should be comprehensively discussed in a disclaimer policy but not outrightly stamped on every page of the forum. does facebook and twitter act like nairaland? why cowering in fear? 7 Likes 2 Shares |

Hello Seun, I would personally say you are threading on thin ice. Freedom of speech can sometimes be a complex issue, this would mean that your moderators would be very astute as to what constitutes an insult and what does not. I don't think the insults are that bad, it should be ones constitutional right to say he thinks a government official is clueless. 1 Like 1 Share |

Don't worry. I won't make the mistake I did the last time you showed your government propaganda colors and then promptly deleted the thread. I screen captured your post this time. Nairaland: Honorary Ministry of Misinformation 5 Likes 3 Shares |

Seun: Hello, The downfall of nairaland will come with too many draconian rules. So many good contributors have already left nairaland because of the perceived childish nature of your forum. George Bush was not only insulted, he was stoned. BTW, you can ban me again if you want but i will still tell you the truth. Know that just because you own a site, you can't just wake up and say people should not talk - which includes yabbing (or insults if you prefer that term). simply because your gej is on the receiving end. There are posts you have made on this forum in the past that you have said unpleasant things about others - like the comment you made on a 2007 thread that was someone resurrected about the death of GMB's wife (which you quickly deleted yesterday). Yes I am waiting for it you can hand me a lifetime ban. 20 Likes 3 Shares |

Seun:Lai lai! you will have to ban all of us. Anyone who feels insulted can sue for libel. Afterall, David Mark Called all of us miscreants during the fuel subsidy protest. The government insults us daily in its handing of the affairs of the nation. This is our avenue to hit back. We will resist any attempt to curtail our freedom of speech.

An elected leader steals, makes ediotic comments, acts cluelessly both on national and global stage, what names do we ascribe to such a person? If you think everyone will reason alongside the disgusting way you are steering your forum, get ready to be heavily disgraced. Go ahead and make your draconian rule to protect the useless mofo who calls himself a President. 16 Likes 1 Share |
