IPOB retards have started with another exaggeration.

Dumbos must mention MC and Tinubu on daily basis to gain any relevance.

However, you didn't express yourself the right way. You just broke rule 2 and rule 20. Too bad. 🤷‍♂️

You should have allowed her respond to the above before banning her, it appears you quickly cleared yourself without giving her a chance to do same...na reverse psychology you sharply use seun.

ahnie:

Those wrapping begging are the real beggers and should banned for life. They are doing that to avoid ban.

Seun:
Any evidence of that? We accepted political ads, but I'm not aware of any other cashing out. I'll investigate anyone if good evidence is provided.

N3TRAL:
Seun, can you make a list of words that are prohibited so that our freedom of speech is not ridiculed in the guise of fighting tribalism.

Make a comprehensive list or a comprehensive definition of what tribal slurs are. Define tribal slurs and what can pass as tribal slurs if there's no list. Thanks.

" Tribe of the fallen demon" has been used to insult people here. It's a phrase not even a word.

SAY NO TO TRIBALISM OR CYBER BULLYING. I STAND AGAINST BOTH VICES AND CONDEMN THEM AS A GOOD NAIRALAND MEMBER!

See dem, one of the tribal bigots is already complaining.

Seun:
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.

- Seun Osewa, Founder of Nairaland

Good morning seun, na now your day break.

gidgiddy:
You still don't get it. You don't get a country or nation just because Lugard came in 1914 to force everyone into Nigeria at gun point. That's not how it works. The ethnic groups who were forced in the colonial country called Nigeria have to be asked if they want to continue with it, especially those who have fought and agitated to leave Nigeria such as Igbos. There is no point talking about a great and progressive Nigeria in a situation where some people feel like they are being held against their will.

Unity in diversity only means something if the people have agreed to work together to be a nation like the Americans did.

Before we talk about a great Nigeria, we must first ask who wants to be a Nigerian.

nzeobi:
thank you OP.

nairaland has shown that Nigerians are not united and still divided along tribal or ethnic lines I.e that is why you see names likeFlatinos, cone heads, Afonja, s, Yoruba Muslim's.
nairaland has also shown that Nigerians have the highest number of hypocrites take a look at those defending the osun rerun scam and those still supporting their oppressors just to spite their fellow Nigerians even when they have nothing to gain.
nairaland should also stop posting news and pictures of all this fake and broke celebrities but rather things that people can learn from.
people should verify their accounts with their facebook, thats the only way you will see people make sensible contributions.

Dreambeat:
Unity is not by force How can you unite with someone who does not share the same values,goals and aspirations with you.It's practically impossible.

ednut1:
U cannot unite lions,leopards and hyena. U ban them they create new profiles. Nothing seun can do. The average nigerian lik iya risi in the market, clement in PH bus park or the farmer in benue doesnt know what nairaland is. So unity cannot come from here

Dont Mind them, they think Biafrans are like them.

Let him keep saying "So No To Separatist"

As if we Biafrans care... The youths of the contraption now believe their future and progress is based on separation, without which there will certainly be no prosperity.

dometome:
unity in diversity scam

Turantula:
Hahaha! Unity my left ball. So that the status quo will continue forever - "Monkey they work bamboo dey whack". Everybody should go his or her way O. Fulanis can go back to Futa jalon

You people just talk anyhow, Is Nigeria the only country in the world with people of different tribes and ethnicity living together? Why are there no tribal war in countries like India, South Africa, United Kingdom e.t.c. yet they live peacefully together....una think sey na only Nigeria be multi-ethnic country.

Ghana next door has people of different tribes and ethnicity living together and you cannot find this senseless tribal attack as you have in Nigeria.

Seun:
Accepted. You pinpointed exactly what the problem was 5 years ago, and I'm just realising it. We have zero tolerance now.

What? you are just realizing your forum is now home of tribal bigotry, seun fear God even someone that just joined nairaland today can see how tribal bigots feast on threads on frontpage within minutes and you the owner of this forum claim you are just realizing it.

I have been suggesting a clean up but you look the other way, it is either you are a tribal bigot sympathizer or one of them for claiming ignorance.

JagabanBorgu:
U are big f00I tho.
Commonwealth is an association like UN, AU etc, if being a member of commonwealth makes u an ally then u are an ally with all UN, AU nations definitely.
U keep blabbing about allies when u don't even understand Nîgeriàn politics, u think u understand international politics.
I put it to u, Nigèria is not an ally of the UK.
Agree or not, u can continue to çry.

Go school you no gree, keep disgracing yourself otondo.

Maize247:
What's wrong with THIS IPOB. Where is Uwayawu, Obi, Chinedu Gbadebo that have said worse. Who is going to petition the ICC against them, we will soon collate our list though we are not used to this type of rubbish petitioning FIFA, UN, HIV...

You are so dilutional to attribute all your problems to IPOB, I am Yoruba btw before you tag me igbo or IPOB.

Who even told you the petitioner is igbo? The name Gideon Christian is a Christian name and not a tribal name.

Seun:
What? Any evidence?

Then why do you always push Reno's senseless and toxic tweets to frontpage? Do you owe him that you had to pay him in kind?

Your moderators are doing a terrible job by always pushing divisive and tribalistic post to front page, it is either they are doing their bidding or doing your bidding. Do you even monitor the activities of your moderators?

JagabanBorgu:
How did UK become our ally?
Do u know what an ally is or u want to be a worshipper of the west?
Couñtries like Burkina Faso, Mali etc are kicking their colonial masters out and slamming bans on them, u want us to worship UK, who told u that the UK sees u as their ally?

First understand what COMMONWEALTH means before ignorantly searching for the meaning of ally, I bet you don't know Nigeria is still a member of Commonwealth countries as such an ally of UK. Go school you no gree go

Bashet:
No outsiders has right to dabble into our politics considering they know nothing about our affairs. Nigeria is a sovereign state! Nigeria is not under any colonial rule. High time they sunk into their hypocritical heads!

I don't even blame them. It's the useless people who keep behaving like slaves while calling on them that made them to start talking to feel relevant. Can they say gibberish when it comes to China or Japan? Point is they aren't important in the scheme of things and have no business in the affair of a sovereign state thus should keep their hypocritical trashy mouth off.

Trump for example didn't believe he lost the election to Biden and was acting as a sore loser before he was clamped. Did you see any country interfere in the USA political affairs?

Hypocritical people who can't even take it if they were in the same shoes.

See the way Pier Morgan and several British people lambast Harry and Meghan daily because the two said little stuff about their Queen. Let alone, if a clown dare say gibberish about the British heritage. Yet they expect us not to talk while some fools provoke us daily by constantly saying gibberish about Yoruba heritage? Can British tolerate such nonsense? That is, can they tolerate some clowns saying nonsense about their British heritage while living on their British soil and even supporting Ipob terrorism to destroy their land like the Igbos are doing?

Lipscomb:
I like the way femi addressed the bastard here.These are my personal views and I am constrained to express them given the fact that one @benllewellynjo1, a misguided, mischievous and clearly unlettered Englander who does not know his place, threw away all caution and mentioned my name in his inglorious commentary.

flokii:
Nigeria rising..

No to colonialists meddling in our affairs.

They hid Diezani from Nigerians despite all the atrocities she committed in Nigeria, they kept quiet when Kanu was inciting hate through his radio biafra transmitted from UK, they only came when Nigeria's State Secret Service nabbed him.

Who do these folks really think they are?

akingangan:
Blame the inferior-minded Nigerians
always begging for a visa ban like traveling to these cold regions is a prize.

What a disgrace to ask for Visa ban.


With all the violence at the US capitol, imagine they start asking for a Visa ban from us for their citizens.

Stupid!

Given FFT incitement comments during election and violent outcome you would still support him, party affiliation has affected your sense of reasoning. You cannot progress in life with this kind of mindset because you don't know when to call a spade a spade.

N3TRAL:
There's no contention here. Even Atiku's and Obi's lead counsels know they have no case.

If we no ginger clients to file cases in court, how litigation lawyers go take chop?

You should have been intelligent enough to ask Falana which part of the Nigerian constitution told him FCT is the 37th state and why it doesn't have a governor, Senate and House of Representative member...urchins don't use their brains.

LeoDeKing:
Obifraud deceiving himself up and down.

Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the next president of my beloved country Nigeria.

Uche can continue insulting everybody on social media, Tinubu becomes the president on 29 May 2023.

I can see you are so pained, The painment will be permanent

DR. ONYECHI IKPEAZU, SAN, OON, JP, FCArb

Biography

Born in Onitsha, Anambra State on 15th April, 1959, trained in the United States of America and attended Evanston College, Lake Forest College and Oklahoma City University where he obtained the degree of Doctor of Juridical Science in 1982 In 1984, he was called to the Nigerian Bar as a Barrister and Solicitor of the Supreme Court of Nigeria. Dr. Onyechi Ikpeazu has been in active legal practice till date and has served as Chairman of the Onitsha Branch of the Nigerian Bar Association and a NEC (National Executive Council) member of the national body, NBA. In recognition of his advocacy skills in 2002 he was conferred with the rank of Senior Advocate of Nigeria, (SAN) and in 2007, he was honoured by the Federal Republic of Nigeria under President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua with the National Honour of Officer of the Order of the Niger, (OON). He is a fellow at the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators and is also a member of the Nigerian Body of Benchers. Some of the landmark cases handled by Dr. Ikpeazu include MOJEKWU V. MOJEKWU; MOJEKWU V. IWUCHUKWU preserving the inheritance right of a woman; NGIGE V OBI reported in (2006) 14 NWLR (Part 999) 1, a decision that brought Mr. Peter Obi to office as the duly elected Governor of Anambra State. His adroit display of rare forensic advocacy skills led to the trail-blazing decision of the Supreme Court of Nigeria in the case of OBI v INEC (2007)11NWLR (Part 1046)565, which case effectively re-calibrated the election metric rule in the hitherto uniform quadrennial elections into the office of Governors of States in Nigeria.
Consequently, a candidate who was wrongly kept out of office after an election he rightly won, would still enjoy un-interrupted his four-year tenure guaranteed under the extant Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria with effect from the date he took Oath of Office as the Governor of the State, barring such other circumstances as death and impeachment. Dr. Ikpeazu conducted the defence of INEC in several election Petitions including the Presidential Election Petition that arose from the General Election in 2011 He also led the defence of INEC in several Governorship Election Petitions arising from the 2015 General election, including;

RIVERS STATE

BAYELSA STATE
EDO STATE

He equally led the team of lawyers that represented Senator Ademola Adeleke in the Osun State Governorship Election Petition Dr. Ikpeazu is also a lead counsel in several State Governorship Election Petitions and appeals arising from the recently concluded General Elections 2019;

OGUN STATE
AKWA IBOM STATE
RIVERS STATE
ENUGU STATE
EBONYI STATE
ABIA STATE
CROSS RIVER STATE
OYO STATE
IMO STATE

He is also part of several Senatorial and National Assembly Election Petitions across the country. Besides election cases, Dr. Ikpeazu has also provided legal representation in International Arbitrations across several jurisdictions. With regards to criminal cases, Dr. Ikpeazu has successfully defended notable individuals in allegations of crimes, among them are Hon. Justice Adeniyi Ademola, former Judge of the Federal High Court, and Late Justice Umezulike, former Chief Judge of Enugu State.

In advancing the course of education, he has delivered lectures and written essays in universities, seminars, workshops, and socio-cultural fora. Dr. Onyechi Ikpeazu, SAN, OON, FCArb, a Justice of the Peace (JP), a devout Christian, and the General Overseer of Our Saviour’s Church, Onitsha is happily married with children. His hobbies include reading, table tennis, and boxing.

This foolish Hundeyin himself is the carrier of fake news and most of the Obiidiots learn it from him.

So why is he trying to correct them now?

I’m sure this fake news of him disguising tomeet Tinubu will make the CJN scared of Obiidiots and suddenly rule in favor of the Peter Obi.

Did your parents raise you up to be insulting people you don't even know or you just decided to be unfortunate?

Moferere:
Their choice

And this one is someone's wife?
And this one is someone's mother?

Mad people everywhere

Their families have been slaughtered by bandits and Fulani herdsmen, when you too experience what they experienced you will understand why they are protesting naked. Una no kuku get sense.

Seun:
Dear Igbo People,

I sincerely apologize for allowing a toxic political banner advert which said, "Lagos can never be run from Anambra; go and vote" to run on Nairaland for several hours on Wednesday, March 15, 2023.

The mischievously worded banner advert appears to have been part of an ethnically divisive political campaign aimed at securing Lagos State for the ruling party by instilling fear in Yoruba people, making them believe that Igbo people intended to "take over" Lagos State.

Such ethnically divisive political campaigns have no place in a forward-thinking democracy, and for this reason, the ad should have been taken down instantly. No harm was intended, but my lack of forethought about the ethics of that type of advert led to a disappointing outcome.

We should have had a clear policy against accepting negative and ethnically divisive ads on Nairaland, we should have communicated it to all advertisers, and we should have taken down any advert that violated that policy instantly. This will all be in place before the next election.

We made almost N16,000 from the ad. We will double it and donate it to victims of political violence in Lagos.

Please, do NOT give up on Nigeria. The times are challenging, but TOGETHER, we will overcome.

Sincerely,
Seun Osewa.

Well done seun, the said advert ran for hours not minutes and none of your mods noticed, who vetted the advert? Well, we all saw the outcome of that divisive advert. 16,000 blood money pocketed, well done.

Don't tell us you are not aware of tribal bigots swarming your forum, what are you doing about that? Infact, tribal bigots now see nairaland as an avenue to unleash division amongst Nigerians and YOU ARE DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT.

It is either you are helpless or you are supporting them. Don't forget division leads to agitation and agitation from left, right and center leads to civil war and when the war starts nobody will have access to nairaland.

My one cent.

-"those who see courts as a continuation of campaigns are setting selves up for heartbreak'' - Very deep

Peter Obi's petition is more like telling the court that:

'' Look i am here to reclaim my mandate even though i know i never won the election. I checked everywhere for evidence of rigging; we had our own independent collation, Tinubu still won. We even checked inside INEC server, we found nothing like rigging. So this is More like i am here to retrieve the mandate that was never stolen.

Please my Lord, Nullify the whole election that cost the country 400Billion naira because the winner failed to get 25% in FCT, even though he had the majority votes and won the highest state". And also i am hearing rumours that he is a druglord, please disqualify the 1st position, and proclaim me, that came distance 3rd, not even the 2nd but me the 3rd position and that even failed to secure 25% in 24 states; the rightful winner. Or just disqualify the winner entirely and set another election of another 400bn taxpayers money between me and the second position, Atiku Abubakar. Lets have a 3rd position-man vs 2nd position-man presidential election.


How can someone suddenly change mouth from 'the election was rigged, i won.

TO
the winner didnt make 25% in FCT so Cancel the whole election and lets start again.

Peter Obi is frying the brains of obidients, rendering them bra!nless and they dont even know. He is surely playing games with their empty skulls. A game of staying relevant. Man just want to always be in the news and remain relevant till 2027, when it is time for another election.

Why jittering, INEC already declared Tinubu winner na, why trying so hard with long senseless epistles?

Your tears will be very sweet when Peter Obi's stolen mandate is returned...keep ranting, I will be the first to tag you incase you want to stay away from commenting.

TINUBU WILL NOT BE SWORN IN AS PRESIDENT OF THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA.

DeOTR:
I'm also not the one that wrote this section


Why should a candidate that had the majority votes and at least, 25% in 30 states of the federation not be declared winner if the above quote is true that FCT is treated just like a regular state of the federation?
What's your special about the residents of the FCT (I live there) that a sitting President must have at least a quarter of their vote?
So the INEC should conduct a rerun election because a candidate got 80% of the votes in the FCT and he's not the one with the majority vote?

How old are you? You clearly haven't completed your education reason for your lack of comprehension, go back to school. Bye.

DeOTR:
You're not saying anything different.
So how would you feel if that section stated that "...have not less than 25% of total votes cast in at least two-third of all the States in the Federation"?
Since you don't know why "and the FCT" was included in the phrase.

You are now saying rubbish, I did not write the constitution and the constitution is very clear on this matter. Tinubu did not win the election constitutionally, period.

Don't bother replying me again, I wont respond cuz I have made myself clear enough.

yarimo:
Mteeeew labour party rig ABIA state election, INEC must cancel ENUGU and ABIA state governorship and assembly election immediately

Na you be this
