₦airaland Forum

Pls, help me guys. I got 220 in jamb and i chose pharmacy and physiology as my first and second choice respective BOTH AT UI. Please, what should i do? Help me

Pls guys. Will UI accept the jamb notification of result, i mean d one without my photograph? I hate how JAMB is so heartless that after they gave me d result that it ain't mine, they still want me to waste money buying another e-nonsense card to print the result with my password.

Seun: Seun Osewa, the owner of Nigeria’s biggest online community Nairaland, has explained to HumanIPO the reason administrators of the forum are censoring comments and banning members who make inappropriate posts.

In an exclusive interview Osewa said such actions are required to prevent continual derailment of threads by those asking irrelevant questions and he believes the censorship can save lives.

“Do you honestly believe we should not have taken any action against the so-called "garri activists", who were derailing every thread by asking irrelevant questions about garri?” he said.

Osewa also justified the forum’s instruction warning members against posting comments that are derogatory to Islam.

When asked why the notice is not placed on the threads of other religions, he said the administrators took the decision to prevent the repetition of past religious violence sparked by anti-Islam posts in print and online media.

“Two hundred innocent people died in November 2002 because a journalist made a comment about the Miss World contest. 16 innocent people died February 2006 because a newspaper in Denmark published an inappropriate cartoon.

“If it is a crime to try to discourage people from posting comments that could lead to lost lives, then we are certainly guilty,” Osewa said.

On how he got the idea to create the forum, he said it stemmed from his previous recognition of the value of online discussion forums.

He said: “I used to be active on various discussion forums online, so I recognised their value. But the Nigerian forums available at the time were dominated by Nigerians abroad.

“They focused on topics like US politics and inter-racial relations. In 2005, after a mobile phone forum I created, because GSM phones were trendy at the time, started taking off, I noticed that the discussions were dominated by Nigerians at home. And it was wonderful.”

Osewa said “off-topic” sections which focused on topics such as romance and politics were particularly popular which led him to believe a “general-purpose” forum focusing on Nigerian life would work.

“So I built Nairaland and closed the mobile phone forum. As expected, Nairaland's local focus appealed to Nigerians at home, including many who didn't know anything about forums.

“But it also appealed to many Nigerians abroad because it made them feel as if they were back in Nigeria. So we got to eat our cake and have it too. We were very fortunate.”

On the forum’s success story, he said it is as a result of the forum’s loyal and passionate members.

“I feel so blessed to be in charge of the Nairaland Forum. I feel extremely fortunate. I don't think Nairaland has any secrets.

“Nairaland is what it is today because Nairaland members have chosen to stick with us for the past eight years.

“We have loyal and passionate members of all ages who continually enrich each others' lives by sharing information freely on our platform,” Osewa told HumanIPO.

As regard to that nonsense you did recently, IN ONE SENTENCE, PROOF TO NAIRALANDERS THAT YOU ARE NOT A MEMBER OF THE BOKO HARAM SECT! We are waiting.

Even though u change that your moronic rule, i still hate this website. What were you thinking when you formed those nonsense? Just wait till i find a better website!!! Nonsense!

ecolime: I really feel for these kids. A very brilliant boy gave me his question paper immediately he got back home from the exam centre for cross-checking. We both re-solved all the four subjects he did and from our personal grading, he shouldn't have had a score lesser than 290. To my greatest suprise he was "given" a score of 185 when the result came out.
I personally believe there's a big error somewhere or truly JAMB did this on purpose. Hundreds of thousand candidates can't be lazy at the same time. May God heal their broken hearts and spirits

i was too shock when i saw my result. It was then i started hating this country as a whole. And the sad thing is that no one believe me when i said what gave me isn't my score. God is alive!

Adenikkee: There was a day I asked him, "do you love me?" and he said "yes". I now said but what will I do for you to love me more and he said if only I can pass my JAMB.

Well, the JAMB result came out a few days ago and I did not pass it.

When I told him the result, he said "hmmm, my baby since you didn't pass your JAMB I don't think things can work anymore"

Now I don't know what to do because I love him very much and don't want to lose him.

Please, could he have fallen out of love with me cos of my JAMB result or he's gotten tired of the relationship & using it as a convenient excuse to cop out OR he never loved me before?

NLDers, please I need your advice.

i know how bad u feel especially as JAMB didn't actually give candidate their real score this year. But i will advice you to forget that guy, face your study and become somebody great in life SO THAT IN THE FUTURE WHEN YOU MEET THAT GUY AGAIN AFTER YOU ARE GREAT, YOU WILL JUST BE LAUGHING AT HIM BECAUSE OF YOUR SUCCESS. A word is enough for the wise.

When will the OP say april fool?

This OP will fail JAMB if he/she tries it. How on earth can you write "HOW YOU" instead of "ARE YOU"? Ludicrous!!

I just wonda why some people dey jealous. We have won the afcon cup. You can go and die haters. And rememba, we neva start well but the end is always sweet
