Quality moderation helps to keep up quality posts

For example no reasonable dont want the masses staying long in their house especially tours and vagabonds

There are 60 days left until the INEC Chairman's tenure expires on November 9, 2025. The Anambra State governorship election on November 8, 2025, will be the last major election Professor Mahmood Yakubu oversees as INEC Chairman.

Who should replace him?

Brendaniel:
I'm from the south east, for me I see you people as full Igbo, any person who says you are not full Igbo is deceiving himself, for me any Igbo man anywhere has equal rights with every Igbo man everywhere, there is nothing like superior Igbo, Igbo is Igbo, this is where I want Ohaneze to strengthen the bond and ties with every single Igbo clan outside the the south east, no Igbo clan should be seen as less, no Igbo clan should be see as more, once you are Igbo you are Igbo....

MemphitzDgreat1:
It's now confirmed that Nairaland is firmly in the hands of the APC propaganda machinery. It's shameful that this thread didn't make FP

A graduate of accounting from a recognized American university is not educated!!

Indonesia and Saudi arabia have 99% of Muslims. Nigeria has just 44%. India on the other hand the population of Muslims is the whole population of Nigeria

Nukilia:
Break the country into 6 regions with regional ministers.

Obi South East
Jonathan South South
Ribadu North west
Osibanjo South West
Sani Musa North Central
Atiku North East

Shawarmagirl:
He's pained because APC has reduced the money they promise him if he succeed in destroying the party. Shame on him

Bendeco02:
Stop shining teeth

Peter Obi won in all military barrack/stations in the six regions of Nigeria.

Howmany Igbos are in military?. Because you guys always turn the arguement tribal when you have no point.

That should have told you how popular he is. He was able to win in all military stations because the soldier can't allow their vote results to be manipulated

Kalulu44:
And again about Lagos been a no man's land. They didn't start calling it that today, ystday, last year or even 20yrs ago.
I was born, raised, schooled, and still reside in Lagos in the year 1980 even though by Igbo parents. I have been hearing Lagos is no man's land since early 90s I know myself very well and we always laugh it off and it never caused quarrel or rancour between me and my friends who are Yorubas.
.
So the question here: what then changed now.
Is it bcus of social media, politicians or what?

Tochi3:


..Mods kindly push this piece of news to the FP..

..tilumbu must be exposed..insha allah..

BATified2023:
To those shouting obi is your president, if e sure for obi make e go address them

DomPerignon:
They are being paid per evey deportee by the US govt

They will then turn around and deport them back to their countries.

Its a win win for Ghana as they make money from the whole ordeal and get to deport the ones already in Ghana alongside the ones Trump is sending their way.

They will then claim all those they are deporting where the ones Trump sent their way

They will make at least $2,000 per deportee and that's excluding airport taxes and fueling sales they will generate for each aircraft that lands in their airport.

Ezewuzie01:
This is really baffling. The Catholic Church should stop awarding knighthood based on monetary contributions of awardees but the focus should rather be on their impact in the lives of those around them.

Mbanda:
Why are you ronus afraid of the truth? What racoon stated in his post is nothing but the truth.
The same group of people you are yarpping about left Nigeria in 1967 to stay on their own. What did you do?
You declared war on them, just to bring them back into the fold called "one Nigeria". So you see, to us you are not making any sense.

Iceberg3:
Don't you dare open your mouth and say "ordinary Edo"...
Edo ain't ordinary. Before that bladdy 1914 amalgamation,we had a very great and thriving kingdom and were doing well under our great kings like oba Ovoranmwen,Eweka,Ewuare.......
Ogidigan and others also comes to mind.

We have small countries like UAE,Kuwait, Luxembourg today who are great beautiful nations.
1914 placed us among strange and big4nothing unproductive people so please refrain from using that language on the great Edo.

POLICE ARREST SELF-ACCLAIMED “OBI OF LAGOS” ALONG WITH THREE ACCOMPLICES, FOIL PLANNED UNVEILING CEREMONY



Source: https://x.com/lagospoliceng/status/1965876238058127478?s=46[/quote]The guy is actually claiming Obi of Lagos state, not just Lagos.

The sad thing is, all the other stuff that they put in the IV that they plan to do, are all worthwhile. The money miss road Obi guy just had to install himself to cause issues.

It was the same with the guy in Ghana, the plans he had were sensible ones, he just had to spoil it with claiming to be Eze Ndigbo and wanting his own kingdom or whatever.

What is this fascination some rich people, and this is not an Ndigbo only trait, have for these elaborate titles, thrones etc?

Brenbentondiaz:
I'm just curious to know why some Bini people bear distinctly Yoruba names, while you don't see Yoruba people bearing Bini names.

WizardOfNG:
My opinion also. I don't know of your experience but most of my "bot" bans, when I have even been extra careful to use 'acceptable' talk, has been in face-offs with Igbo posters who are insultive against me personally, or Yorubas generally, yet suffer no consequences.

Whereas my polite response to tackle their idiocy is banned by the "bot". Go figure.

I label GRV "untalented mediocrity" and was banned. Yet they will call Tinubu drug lord, Escobar and all manners of despicable things yet get away with it.

What sort of "bot" is that? Clearly a human and partisan one selecting who to ban and who to indulge.

It is Seun I blame for his naivete and lack of pragmatic intellect. Check the ethnicity of the composition of MODs and you'd understand.

I don't have time for frivolities but I also know, factually and proven beyond doubt, those who live and breathe bigotry to understand that their predictable discriminatory and prejudiced behaviour will be a problem whenever they are placed in position of control/power over other Nigerians.

They will abuse such powers to favour their own and punish others. Nigerian history 100% validates this.

@aswani

I hope you're doing OK?

I saw your post late yesterday but had a limited time to reply all my mentions. Indeed, I appreciate your positive thoughts and insights here.

The moniker I castigated in that post used a Benin-Edo name (which could have been a fake name created for trolling like these bigots have been doing to spread disinformation and to divert attention from the real ethnic origins of the trolls). Benin-Edos don't relentlessly derail threads by spewing hate towards Yoruba folks and others on this discussion forum or other online platforms unless when "genuinely provoked" by territorial expansionists or secessionists and those casting aspersions on the Oba of Benin and we know who they are.

Regardless, a manual crackdown through bans by these mods on those well-known trolls is needed to curb these infractions. I keep seeing the NL thread posts of those who regularly use "hate speech and disinformation" being pushed to the NL front page and this ONLY encourages these monikers to continue their bad habits through selective application of punishments by some mods here. There is very little the so-called NL bot can do if strict manual monitoring of toxic posts isn't done.

Cheers.

Raf4:
War camp kọ, battle field ni. Wish war was Bini fighting that made her thought of jumping several settlements, communities, villages and towns in order to build military camp in about 300km away??
Where are the relics of the Bini war camp and weapons/ammunition/armouries anywhere in Eko/Lagos today?

Eko is purely Yoruba word from Ereko to Eeko to Eko.

SarkinYarki:
What is this man scared off?

WizardOfNG:
Below is another "bot" ban I received. A poster is baiting. I respond without insult. Instant WWF-style takedown. Guys don't be reactive or apathetic. That is what is behind most problems of Nigeria. Be proactive and fight to defeat ogres. From now on, screenshot and prove you did no wrong.

Only way to force Seun to remove bigoted, hateful and intolerant mods abusing their power here.

Dotherightthing:
This one is just manufacturing names to justify his point.

Aside, Idumota, Idumagbo and Iduntafa any other Idu there is a figment of your imagination. And they are just streets compared to OLOWOGBOWO, ITA FAAJI, EPETEDO, OKEPOPO, OKESUNA, ISALE EKO, ISALE GAN GAN, ISALE OFI, IGBOSERE, etc etc

Ota is an Awori town in Ogun state.

Agbo is ram.

Ofa is arrow.

Agbe is farmer or beggar.

Adan is bat.

Are is leader.

They are all Yoruba words.

Idumu kor Idimu ni

Continue deluding yourself.

Nobody is denying Binis WERE INVITED to Lagos Island to protect it from invaders.

The fact is that they can NEVER be founders or owners.
