Actions speak louder than words.

We prefer to observe on NL thanks to the anonymity that enables any bigoted scallywag to go on their regular verbal tirades against the north. Responding only gives them more fodder. If you want to hear from Arewa, go on Twitter.

Such utterances, including on NL, however have real political consequences in the real world as can be seen with the political frustration of our loudest antagonists.

Northeners have never been here, just few of them

Parachoko:
So what should seun do about it?

He should try to make the Forum attractive to Northerners. First step is to clamp down on bigots that are making Nairaland look like an anti-North Forum.

abobote:
Northeners have never been here, just few of them

And the few are leaving in droves. This is not a good way to expand the Forum userbase.

KINGofHELL:
Has anyone else noticed that the engagement rate of Northerners has drastically reduced on this Forum?

Familiar Northerners like Arrewa /Arewa1stson, AdolfAboki, SilverNorGold, and others hardly create threads or engage in conversations these days, which is unlike them.

Seun should do something to make the Forum attractive to Northerners. We're tired of watching only Yoruba and Igbo engaging in discussions on NL.

How long does northern Nigeria still need a quota system?.
They will not come to parity with others they share space with, yet want to rule over people whose capacity they have failed to match.

Seun, please give them Nairaland Hausa service.

Kyase:


Yes I'm a northerner
I guess Benue is in West shey
No region as middlebelt as long as Nigeria is concern

You obviously skipped geography classes in school. How due north is Benue in Nigeria's geographical topography?. You're actually "stranded" in the middle of nowhere, not only geographically, but sadly also economical and political.

The true inconsequential dot in a wide circle.
