the earlier u start thinking out of the box the better for you. I voted lanicky and yet I am mot even near Lagos by a thousand miles,so also many others . Secondly how did u arrive at the conclusion of this so called hypothesis of Lagos internet voters So u think everyone that was voting and posting here were in Lagos?
Lanicky won because of her team hard work,they campaigned and canvassed for votes vigorously. A friend of mine was even replying one of her team that they should just let him know when the voting will be done ,he hasn't even seen the lady picture. This is what we call effective marketing ,despite all the obvious odds against lanicky .her team persisted in making her grow on people. In life,stay focus on what you believe in ,market urself with passion and confidence and someday someone somewhere will appreciate u.

laykhorn:



Lol! No offence taken. That's bygone.
I just couldn't put myself together to pick one of Ivvy, Refiner and Lanicky and all three were mentioning me. It felt like betrayal to me so I just ignored all and shut myself out. They are all bold and beautiful and with brains.

Cheers! See you around bro!

Wow, really?

Haaa boss... I dey laf sote i pour sunlight inside tea

KingEbukaNaija:


You forgot that you need 2000 emails and phone numbers - 2000 unique sim cards .

i.e 2000 x 200 = 400,000

Are you willing to spend 400,000 naira to win a competition where the first position in pecuniary terms will get less than 100 K ?

Even a Benin man is talking about beauty ..Benin girls are one of the ugliest no offence

[color=red]you say

amtaken:
God bless you.

I am seriously considering leaving this forum.

It is full of hatred for the SE and SS.

Fedayeen02:
Congratulations Lanicky. I fell for the audio interview you made. You downplayed your beauty but held your intelligence on a high ground.


Continue to shine.

Onstelly sebi i tell you Last year it was tsunami Twaci but tophaz snatched the crown at the 11th hour.


Mimzy you did great and you have the best campaign team but fate was asleep.


Refiner you deserve it and i will advise you to try again next year because you are a Queen in waiting. Be a Lanicky who didn't give up.


Mysticgal plz note that love will always conquer money cos I've experience both side. You are beautiful with a good heart but you need to do more.


Ivvy you are brilliant but i got disgustef with the childishccampaign of one Sgoat that notwithstanding you are a queen in your own right. Continue to soar like an eagle. Never give up.


I voted refiner with my Alternates but The best won.

Congratulations Queen Lanicky

For Nigeria to succeed as a nation, religious and tribal bigotry must be kept far away from all corners of the country but I see that not happening soon because as we speak today, those two things "religious and tribal bigotry" have beclouded the average Nigerian man.

Even when things are done without religious or tribal sentiments, 60% of the Nigeria's population will reason towards that angle.

Then in relation to this Miss Nairaland contest, tribal sentiments cannot be totally ruled out from the competition, but definitely not coming from the organisers of the contest (NL CEO, the host et al) rather coming from the voters who truly determines the winner with their votes.

It has become norm in this country for competitions like this and other similar events to be marred with tribal sentiments and it is not surprising to see this one, because most Yorubas will vote for Yoruba contestant, likewise most Ibos will vote for Ibo contestants regardless of the contestants looks and performances in the general question part of the competition.

We also see these types of scenarios play out in the Nigerian polity during elections and other things that involves contest.

Now our verdict: Nobody, no ethnic group should feel cheated here on the result of the Miss Nairaland 2016 contest that saw Lanicky taking the crown.

The thing there is that, since we did not rule out that most voters voted based on tribal sentiments, then Yoruba contestants will mostly come out as winners all the time not because they are superior than any other tribe as some of them are already claiming here but just because by the virtue of highly populated Lagos state based Internet and Nairaland users.

It has been proven that Lagos state has X5 largest Internet users than any other state in the country or even other states put together.

And Lagos is a mainly Yoruba state with more Yorubas, meaning they partook more on the voting strength.

So that is what truly played out in this contest.

Aeontk:
[color=red]you say

Fugazi:




Try to have a sense of competition. Anytime y'all see Yorubas, you start hating.

bongolistik:
first of all, nobody said everyone. Secondly If you know the number of Internet users in Lagos that visits NL as compared to any other state in Nigeria, you will be amazed.

Fedayeen02:
tell me more

telemapreye1:
Just hold your lips there,is mimzy not yoruba,ivvy too is partially yoruba.
This stuff was rigged

telim:
Since every body is allowed to vote for their favourite contestant from their device. it's very easy to use bot to mass vote for any contestant. Nairaland is a very simple site that doesn't have a complex algorithms in place for detecting patterns and hosted proxies. A bot will do the job without being detected.

RichYoungNigger:
Yoruba or Hausa or Ibo.
I don't give a flying fucck.

Why don't you think of how to make money instead of arguing whether the contest was rigged or not.

How much sef the girl win ?? $300 ?? That's how much i spend on cigarettes in a week

bongolistik:
rigging is not impossible and can be a factor as you said
