Out of curiosity.

In the religion section it became VERY apparent that Muslims should have their own section and that the moderators of the general religion section should be Christian.

Yet in the politics section, 2/3 of the mods are Igbo. Isn't this rank hypocrisy? How can Igbos be allowed to lord over the other 249 tribes in Nigeria, especially when they have shown themselves to be extraordinarily tribal and bigoted in their support of the Jonathan administration. A direct conflict of interest to the duties of a politics mod.

It is getting to the point that NL politics can not be even be taken seriously because of the tribal slant of the moderators.

Can't we have balance? People complain EVERY DAY about Afam's tribal slant in his moderating duties. Why are there no Northern politics mods, or Ijaw, or middle belt? It is not an accident that threads on the front page about the middle belt are nonexistent and that threads about the North only fixate on Boko Haram.

How can anyone trust the objectivity of the threads that are recommended to Seun and Mukina to go front page when so many of the mods are emotionally invested in protecting their tribe and Goodluck Jonathan?

People CHOOSE their religion and we all know how much people can twist their duties to protect their religion. Even people sworn to protect the country of their birth (military) will kill their brothers over their chosen religion. We are each BORN with our tribe, and it takes an extraordinary godlike person to resist the desire to protect and support their tribe. So how can we pretend that our mods are objective?

This is just a simple fact of human nature. We see it play out in EVERY society on the planet in the form of racism and tribalism.

Could you, as a mod on an oyibo website, promote threads that would harm the reputation of Nigeria? Wouldn't you be slanted and try to prevent those threads from becoming public? Of course! You might be able to do your job objectively some of the time, when the newsworthiness of the thread was too much to hide, but you could never promote threads that would harm Nigeria's interest on a consistent basis!


I am not saying that the current mods should be replaced, but that we are in desperate need of increased diversity. Especially considering the emotional stake that NdIgbo have staked in the Jonathan administration. It is a fantasy to believe that Afam and Sexkillz ignore their tribe when performing their duties.

All I am asking for is diversity. Thanks. If Afam and Sexiillz are truly objective, they should support it too.

Baseless assertion. OP, pls help us with educative threads.

You get time!

Just leave seun and his site, na him sabi.


They get a kick out of doing what they think will upset people.

Besides, you dont know who is paying them.

Diver-what?

However, when they have kept nl in the doldrums for as long as possible, dem no go get lives?

If that FVCTARD sexkillz had been doing his Job...you'd have been on a hundred year ban just like 'Yorubest'. Your level of ethnic bigotry is just so out of place!
