Obi is a great writer, but writers need to learn satire from the masters like Wole Soyinka. And for musicians, they have to learn from Fela.

Criticizing politicians should not be same as fighting dirty.

There is a way it is done, and you pass your points across without sounding like you have personal axe to grind with the politician.
So passing ur mom to neigbors and friends to chop should not be called rape. I’m disgusted with folks I share this country with

Many of their writers are asking brittle paper to take down their literatures from their website in protest.

One of their award winners even returned back their money and their award.

Brittle paper is finished. Credibility lost.
They don't know what hit them.

But it is very ironic that a notorious anti free speech family like the El rufais somehow have a stake in Nigerian literature.

How did that happen? That is irony of cosmic proportions.

Shut your gob.

Stop writing nonsense.

The hard hitting Soyinka that we all know would dissociate himself from your partisan nonsense.

You painted a false Soyinka.

When your boss wants to put things right,to clear your mess,no matter how good you are,you don't hang up or walk out on him,except you have someone you are doing his biddings who will later accomodate you,your boss can as well do without you,regardless of who is right or wrong here

The issue is not about hard-hitting or otherwise. You are too emotional.

Satire is an art, not a street fight.

Anthony Joshua is a hard hitter, but he is a more refined fighter than a thug in Ojuelegba.

Soyinka will never replace pass to with gang-rape and then proceed to write an epistle.

Soyinka goes into a battle armed with facts, not emotions. So, why he would hit hard, it would be with facts.

First of all, how is it different from the war of words we witness on Nairaland everyday?

It is just a war of words.

My mother has been dragged here on Nairaland in the many wars that I have fought here.

I am very certain that Bello does not even know the man's mother. It is just an exchange.

Even Davido and some celebs have never shied away from dragging people's parents into their clapbacks.

I don't see what the big deal is here.

Abi was it not Trump that talked about grabbing them by the pussyhuh

It is all just words.

Bello shared his opinion. Someone came around to bully him by calling him "Daddy's boy".

He fired back. How is that rape? Or a threat of rape?

Look at this one.

Brittle Paper finished? You must be a joker.

When Brittle Paper was providing platforms for young writers like Obi to hone their skills, people like you never showed face.

But because the paper favored professionalism over emotions, you are questioning their credibility.

The owner of Brittle Paper has done so much for African literature. I am a beneficiary. And people like me don't forget such favors. We will always remember her contribution and support her.

As we speak, a LongLiveBrittlePaper hashtag has started on Twitter.

And many writers have refused to take sides.

Brittle Paper is going nowhere.

If you value your future, you better be quiet.
I don't see the point of arguing the merits of the case with you.

Another award winner just returned their award to them two hours ago .

He won their inaugural poetry prize, and had asked for his poetry to be taken down.

Those are people far sensible than you with a lot of reputation and record to protect.

I know I can't impress on your integrity, you probably have none given your argument, so I would appeal to your sense of greed.

If you value your long term credibility and money making future in literature, don't endorse brittle paper publicly.

Just do it codedly.

Actually, they are far better than pro-rape people such as you who use it
as a political weapon.

At first, you guys allege that it was a "threat to rape", now it is "rape".
So people are now be raped via Twitter?
The funny thing is that the message is public knowledge for anyone to read.

People who can't see through your deception will think that you care.
You don't. You are the type that claims "false allegation" when a real rapist is arrested.
But now you are quick to show your disdain for a fake rape.
Your aim is to trivialize rape so much that people will no longer care.

Rape has a specific legal meaning, this tweet is not even close.

SMH
I would be glad if you show me where I espoused rape.

What emotions are you talking about?

A young privileged fool threatened rape of a senior citizen and a conscious writer called him out on it.
Nothing more to it.

The way you are going, I doubt if you would last in this business.

Your moral compass is seriously bad.

I bet you know that calling Bello a fool can constitute cyber bullying of Bello?

If we were all to apply criminality to every threat on social media, we should all be in prison by now.

How can anyone even read threat into that tweet? Bello did not even emphasize the word or retweet to drive whatever threat you all seem to see home.

As for you, don't even talk about moral compass. Everyone who knows you here know that you don't like APC and El Rufai.

There is no way you can comment on this matter without being bias.

So, don't even talk nonsense about moral compass.

Not totally true. I saw the post from the other boy accusing El Rufai of being a pedophile by the way he was holding a young girl ina photo. I wish I have the real tweet. It was after that that Rufai's son posted about thr boy's mother. I would have said worse if anyone post such about my parents especially at that age.
You don't have sense at all and a bloody liar!

All the tweets have been shown and compared here that Bello El Rufai's tweet came before the one you are talking about!

Moreover, it wasn't the same guy that Bello attacked his mother that tweeted the latter tweet you are talking about!

But since they have paid you 30k BMC stipend to come to nairaland to defend your pay master, you will see white and call it black!!

You igbos thought it's ur absolute right to sit in every known social platform and criticize and insult northern leaders.
Am yet to find anywhere they direct such hatred to their own leaders in the east.
Furthermore it's rare to find where Hausa people jump on every eastern leader's scrotums to leech.
Yet the north is steadily progressing.
Nairaland here is over flooded with developments from north and it's so hard to find such from the east.
But this yeastern yoots don't know any different they are like he goats inhaling the urine of goats on heat. They will never see any wrongs from their governors etc.
What do u people expect the son of El Rufai to do when u constantly besieged his dad?

My only advice to you is to stop drinking Namdiot Coward Cownu's unrine in place of real apple juice. It's not good for your physical and mental health. Seek mental help from a Board Certified Psychiatrist fast before you end up naked at the market square.

Done responding to your infantile diatribes -----NOW STFU AND GET LOST.

Lagos Lagoon is open and ready for you 24/7 in case you are unable to cure your mental instability.

The fact that you likened daddy’s boy to passing around somebody’s mom to friends is the reason why Naija will be forever a breeding desert for war, illiteracy and poverty. What is it that he has done in his life other than being a bigoted product of Naija lootocracy?
