No.

Fellow Nairalanders,

We have noticed the use of ethnic slurs and other derogatory names by a small but persistent group of political actors and trolls.

This practice of derogatory name-calling adds no value to the forum. It's bad for our mental health, our harmony as a community, and the reputation of Nairaland. It's simply toxic. It's absence and the absence of the people who use those slurs will not be missed.

Therefore I have decided to ban the practice entirely. I have instructed dominique, mukina2, Lalasticlala and Mynd44 to ban anyone who uses an ethnic slur or derogatory name on Nairaland. The antispam bot will also contribute to the effort. Please report any case that you see.

high time,social forums really made this election a redefined political landscape where if care isn't taken,future elections could actually be really violent,no thanks to tribal bigotry on these platforms and thanks to buhari's firm grip for this one.

Fucklove:
He's from south south.

So there are no longer Igbos from the SS? Or will this only last until the next irredentist pops justifying the region's inclusion in a "Biafra" map on the basis that the "Igbos of the SS" supposedly want it that way?

You're right sir.

I dey feel say sometimes Seun just wants to trigger Nlders with these topics.🤣🤣

babajero:
The damage has already been done, but it is never too late to start. And another thing is that I think Mynd44 is little tribalistic and fanatical to to carry out such task.

Exactly my sentiments. It’s too late. I grew up seeing myself as a Nigerian without any tribal prejudices. Social media particularly Nairaland has opened my eyes. You can ban what a man can say but you cannot ban his heart. Now we know the hearts of others, banning doesn’t change anything. I rather a man who says what he feels than a man who smiles but has e wil in his heart. It may make Nairaland a less hostile environment but let’s not kid ourselves…..the genie has left the bottle!

nice one

mynd44,mukinat2., Lalasticlala. Shey una see this

Oscarhakx:
its fucking obvious there's nothing going on in your life. Nairaland is your whole life. Only place where you get your dopamine rush. You fucking morally deprived loser

mariahAngel:


Going by how Lalasticlala does his job, you will hardly know where his from.
I only got to know the day Seun mentioned it.

but when Seun said he had brought him back ,the next day homepage was filled with Obi’s post and anti APC’s posts .

The only difference between him and Mynd44 is that the latter airs his opinion on politics once in a while and once declared he’s Yoruba that studied at OAU while the former does not comment on posts and always post snakes .

Seun which words are banned?

kudos @seun nice.. I like you for this.. so now unblock me on twitter

I'll be on standby to help Seun and the mods to apprehend those trolls and bigots and send them to the mods for proper sanction
God bless Nairaland

seun, you have been doing well so far, keep your distance if I could have an opinion.
This is truly the state of the mind of the people, so that if there is a remedy, it can be conceived from the true conditions at hand

Seun:
No.

I am seriously disappointed it took you almost 8 years to address this issues. A lot of write up about putting an end to ethnic slur but at the time it was driving traffic for you. It means one thing, you don't rate or listen us your clients, unfortunately many bright minds gave left the forum.
