Peaceworld:
This is very funny. Do you really think I am doing this for personal gain? Then why am I not going for president? The board is a maximum of 8 members. There's a reason for that. Thanks for your support all this while but to say I am doing all this for personal gain is not true at all. If so, I will be looking at ways of arresting this assoc for myself. I haven't done that. Just want to see this assoc grow BECAUSE I AM AN AUTHOR AND HAVE WORKS I WANT TO SPREAD OUT just like you and every other person here. Please if this is what you're thinking, that is wrong. How can I be working for personal gain? A board with 8 members is for the good of everyone. Please peeps, look at that exco again. There are no real actual board members who are really board members. Is that what we want? OK. If that's what we want, then I might as well just remain a member. After all, I have contributed into this well enough. Maybe it's time for others to contribute since I have been doing it all FOR PERSONAL GAIN. Very strange what some people have in their minds. Very very strange. So that has been what you have been thinking all this while? I am trying to make that board up there more democratic and if you're not joining this fight then you are not a friend of YAN. Everybody there works for the president, if you look closely at it. There's nobody who is actually on his level. Mmmmmmmhhhhhhhhhh......working for personal gain.....very very very very funny. Cuddlemii, hw u doin?

owkkk @ daily news tnks sir...now dis is d idea:

Name of projct: 'YAN FOR WRITE CAMPAIGN'
Aims: 1. To build a world f writers who wil contribute 2 dis nations buildn process through d power f d pen.
2. To encourage more readership of d works we produce.
3. To make YAN a household name in Nigeria.
A Brief:
In a tym lik dis wen evrytn is crumblin in d nation, leaders r failn n citizens d4 loosn hope. It is very neccessary dt as writers we feed d nation with d ryt thots wc cud serve as a lead in hlpin us develop actions wc r capable f buildin a worthy nation 4 every1 2 live in. If u ask mi wat nigerians nid ryt nw is writers. Writers who through their works can offer great perspectives 2 d dev.of dis country,continent n d world at large.
It is time 4 writin 2 take ova d face of nig. Film-makers av done dis, musicians r doin dis n now it is our turn as writers 2 do dys by takn ova d face f nig. Dnt we tink of a tym in wc instead f ppl listenin 2 d unhealthy nig musics n watchn d obscene nig movies filled up evrywia in dis country ppl wil begin 2 read our works, watch our programmes n apprecia8 us.
It is tym 2 take YAN n writn as a whole 2 d streets, homes n evrywia around d nation. 'It is YAN 4 WRITE CAMPAIGN' n we must rise up n move dis campaign sme reasonable kilometres away 4rm its birthin ground. Join mi n support d 'YAN 4 WRITE CAMPAIGN'.

How 2 achieve dis campaign: By organisn an annual writin tour round campuses in all d tertiary institutns in d nation. We might mk it a 6 yrs plan. In those 6yrs we will visit all d major universities in d 6 geo-political zones i.e. One yr each 4 evry zone.

Funding of dis projct:
Dis wil b basicaly tru corparate n private sponsorships n den partnerships.
* Corporate & private sponsorships such as d fed & state givts., multinational companies, fed n state govt.ministries n parastatals etc.
*Partnerships with likeminded assoc's n org's, universities,educational bodies etc.

Note: dis is jst my idea n its bound n subject 2 adjustments n changes as long as it is in line wit d visions n aspirations of dis association.
Tnks 2 all whom av patiently read n assimilated dis. One luv 2 all f u yanners my advice 2 u is dt, lets kip yanning d yan until all d yan hav been yanned out. Am stil ur boi luke n am checkin out f hia 4 nw. Bye....!!!

Peaceworld:
Lukedj, nobody's starting a new fight. It's just dt all of a sudden, our legal Prof. Emyo is nowhere to b found...desperately need your help here, Emyo!!! Sunical needs to see dt it is suicidal for the president to head both the board n execs at the same time. OK, why is GEJ not the President and Senate President at the same time? Or PDP Chairman for dt matter? At least, ds is one issue Emyo agrees with me. Where him dey sef?

DailyNews:

Plz Luke share the idea..thanks in anticipation....

Uniquexty: My beloved peaceworld, u are 7 men in one body. Its only George Shadow that would do what u've done and there's no doubt u r d man. (Who no go know, no fit know) u are a blessing and YAN owes u. We love u. @sunical's suggestion, phiozy seconded, i am thirded it. We are all wonderful. @cuddlemii, ur points are taken but we havent built any wall around us. This is a thread where everybody's opinion matters. The only restriction i know is the fact that we are one family and anybody interested in commenting and joining must adhere to the rules of respect, love and unity. Outside that, pls look elsewhere. This is not like the other threads u see where people display their talent in the use of abusive words. Concerning the idea of posting thiny winy stories, we'l start it up. I just pray people's stories and write ups are not looked down on. We are all learners and should help one another grow. @luke, u have a thing with words that makes my stomach rumble with love and respect. U make excess sense joor. We are doing it. YAN IS MOVING FORWARD AND THE GATES OF HELL CAN NEVER PREVAIL AGAINST IT

Peaceworld:
Nice idea...but this is YAN and not PEN. I think we should shape our own leadership the way we all agree we can work with. Have issues with the president chairing the board n the executive at the same time.

DailyNews:

My brother, what else do I have to say, other than what u rightfully said in your previous post? tell me? See, when I woke up this morning with YAN on ma mind, the first issue I addressed on YAN wassap group was this same issue, and it was as if God was speaking through you at the same time He spoke through me on our wassap group. I have done everything beyond my capacity to ensure peace and harmony reigns bw the duo, all to no avail. This worried me to the extent that I picked up my phone last night and dialled peaceworld to ask if he was a lawyer or a law student cos Emyo is, which may be the cause of their frequent opposition to each ones opinion, but peaceworld confirmed to my greatest amazement that he is not, so I wondered if they knew before now, and still no...I don't really understand what the problem could be. on several occasions I have spoken to Emyo to pls n pls try and accomodate people even in their flaws, and he always promised me he will but to no avail. For chrissake, how can we expect a baby that just learned how to walk to start running the same day? is it possible? YAN is a new born baby struggling to stand and we expect it to start running like a teenager, how pls? Nigeria as a nation that has existed for over 50 years is still struggling with whether the constitution should be amended or not, so why do we expect our constitution to be 100% perfect at this onset without even running a trial to see how the things we stipulated in the constitution would work or not, thats totally absurd I must say it. Our having members who happens to be experienced in law and legal matters shouldn't be a curse but instead a blessing, so why are we ignorantly killing a baby we jointly raised? why? pls and pls, Emyo you need to come publicly here and apologize to peaceworld and peaceworld you do same and u guys must finally embrace each other with honesty and sincerity of heart. Don't we love God at all? don't we fear God? don't we read our scripture and what have you? don't we know that without peace there won't progress and lastly a NAGGING WIFE IS WORST THAN A PROSTITUTE WIFE! Happy weekend lovely people!

Peaceworld:
Simply put, dear, no one has d right to insult any other person in public. Even if you disagree with the person. We've been disagreeing for a long time now, but I'v nevr insulted him. Just put fwd what u dont like abt d constitution. Is dt too hard to do without spiting on the same person you want to take in your corrections? So this is not about pride, gosh...I'v bn humble enuf to work with evry othr person here. This guy is just too impossible d way he goes abt insulting me. Someone who keeps hatin cuz he doesn't hav everything his way...so pathetic.
