Look at many threads posted on the FP on Nairaland where some people are seeking advice/information about some personal challenges they're facing, you'd struggle to find a genuine piece of advice that can help the person, especially on the first page of the threads.

The cyber bullies would be the one calling the person all sorts of names and abuses. You'd get more mature responses to issues on Quora.

Segedinho:


Irrespective of the content nor program..

She isn't supposed to air that interview

Should I give you the house address of the deceased so you can go tell her family? Since you keep repeating the same statement over and over again without even knowing the details of the incident.

If a person has a genuine problem in need of advice and they post it on Nairaland, the cyber bullies will push the person into depression. That's the major problem here. Say no to cyber bullying.

Segedinho:

OGA
The is no justification nor blame of cyberbully in my response thus far .

I am just saying it as it is....She was bullied cos she gave them reason to be bullied..

There are more anonymous way to air that rubbish and no one would know who to bully or face...

Imagine I said I raped your daughter at my very low,would you call the response I received bully?


What you termed bully could considered be a mere shocking reaction from Mr A....

You can't control how people react to your careless action....

Obviously, you don't know the content of the interview granted by the lady. You're just making ignorant posts all about instead of making proper findings about the incident first.

You don't even know the program in question.

It's the same way many Nigerians bully others on Nairaland here daily. See filmsy excuses in support of and justifying cyber bullying.

Segedinho:

Her face was blurred but she can easily be figured out and that was done..


There are more anonymous way to burst it if it was eating her out... a lengthy phone call would just be fine......


The interview was unnecessary and the interviewer was stupid too for bringing it to air...

She would have easily took her to the therapy and stop there....

She can actually allude it in her speech and not necessarily bringing it on as an interview.

The blurred face was too fake ....

Continue justifying and looking for excuses for cyber bullying till it happens to you or someone you know.

If a person posts a real life story about some low points in their life online without the story even containing any controversial content, the cyber bullies would still attack them calling it fake just as you're doing now, which won't enable the person get the help they need.

I've seen a number of individuals that many people had written off at low points in their lives, who then went on to achieve great things later on in life.

Nigerians are too self-righteous, lacking empathy, and judge others too harshly.

Segedinho:

Bro..

Cyber bully is here to stay and no amount of preaching would change that..it is as it is.

If I come on air to say I slept with a goat....should I be applauded for that...

If truly the the story is true then she killed herself for nothing cos cyber-whatever has been there and still would be there ...


I am beginning to view it from Gbola's angle ...like who does that?,even the worst imbe...would have a rethink in going gun-blazing like that.....

That's you jumping to conclusions without making proper findings first. The lady's face was blurred during the interview.

Obviously, you don't know anything about the actress' show and the different real life stories narrated by guests on the program.

Segedinho:

U are talking of moral right in a world that consist of the good the bad and the ugly.

There are things that are meant to go with you to the grave as a secret and that ws one.

What was the essence of the nonsense interview,,,? To gain sympathy?? to raise fund?? to be applauded,,,??

The end point was depression and death and that was what she embraced.


For crying out loud..she is not a celebrity nor someone that has the fame to be called upon by an interviewer...

She woke up,carried her 2 left legs to the studio to say nonsense about the worst secrets in her head..

She ws stupid...May her soul R I P ...

Her face was blurred during the interview. She was just sharing her ordeal, what she had gone through with certain relatives while growing up, and the interviewer stated now that she had even arranged how she would see a therapist to help her heal.

Many Nigerians judge too much, too harshly.

Mindlog:


I professionally work with people who presents such life story in therapy and just watching the video, I instantly sensed the underlying suicidal ideation it exuded. I told a colleague of mine that I hope for the interviewer's sake that lady don't end up committing suicide as she was not bloody trained for such!

Few hours later, reading she had committed suicide wasn't a shock to me though I would have loved to read, she survived the suicide attempt.

She shouldn't have divulged such controversial information. Even so, human life is too cheap in this country.

Even people without such a controversial story still experience cyber bullying if they post their personal stories online at low points in their lives.

That's the issue I've with cyber bullies specifically, not even the lady in question as I don't support the act she narrated in the interview.

I don't even support bestiality. My issue is with the Nigerian cyber bullies. If you share some good news about yourself online now or a personal problem, the bullies will attack as usual.

I don't know what people gain in being wicked to their fellow humans.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:


Some things are better left unsaid. Coming to social media to tell the public that she got herself two dogs to satisfy her. People go abuse her. It is an abomination. Na Africa we dey. Even in the West, dem go tell you say na animal sexual assault. Maybe e get other things wey dey bother her so she just use online bully as a excuse. See the heavy frontal asset wey dog dey enjoy.

I never supported the information she revealed in the interview. My issue is with the online bullies that dominate the Nigerian cyberspace.

These bullies would find the slightest excuse to call others the worst of names online. It's the same way they bullied this lady they also do to others in need of relationship advise, career information, or those involved in one mishap or the other.

If you share a personal story online without any controversial content, you can expect the bullies on the Nigerian online space to call you bad names.

It's just what these people do habitually whether or not the story is controversial.

That's why it's always good for young people to use social media and Nairaland with moderation because of wicked, vile people like this.

What the lady needed was a therapist. Cyber bullying is bad. It costs nothing to be kind in words to your fellow humans.

Segedinho:
gbam




The girl died for nothing infact she orchestrate her death with that nonsense interview.


There are limits to what you can divulge........


What sort of nonsense talk wS that,,??to what essence

Many Nigerians that celebrate all sorts criminality don't have the moral right to bully the lady. These are people you can't even trust with your misplaced personal belongings, such as a mobile phone, wallet, or car keys that they'll return them to you if found.

Such corrupt and morally bankrupt people don't have any moral right to bully the lady online into depression and eventually suicide because they're even worse.

It's the same way the lady was bullied that many Nigerians bully others that seek help in the form of information on Nairaland here.

Nigerians would find the slightest excuse to exhibit their vile, wicked nature. Life is too cheap in this country.

Mindlog:


Why she go air such interview?

Ask Google or ChatGPT.

GloriousGbola:


You do realise that this is 101% winding?

Winding? Did you watch the actress' video on IG reporting the event about 30 minutes ago?

It's always good for one to limit the use of social media and Nairaland. Too many vile and wicked people.

This lady, who said she slept with dogs when she was interviewed recently by the Yoruba actress Biola Bayo, just committed suicide, according to the actress, due to the online abuses by the self-righteous IG users.

Nigeria really has some of the most wicked humans on the planet, and coincidentally, these are often the most religious people. So much religion, and yet, so little humanity.

I don't know what Nigerians gain by bullying other people online.

The interview posted on FP earlier: https://www.nairaland.com/8117869/get-myself-2-dogs-satisfy

Obviously, this Finidi no go last on the job. What's Onuachu still doing in this match? When even start him in this first time place? Finidi is a poor coach.

Onuachu, useless striker. E no sabi nod ball well with all him height

First official match for the Super Eagles under gaffer Finidi.

Modified: Finidi gets a baptism of fire as the Super Eagles concede a goal on the half-hour mark.

Ibime:


No let eye deceive you. Luis Suarez is 5ft 11 and stocky and weighed 82kg

Aguero is carrying weight and low centre of gravity. He full ground with stocky and short legs that balance him well. Alvarez is just thin. Aguero was 77kg, Alvarez is 71kg

Make I blow your mind. Obafemi Martins is exactly the same height and weight as Alvarez but you go know who full ground and who no get strength. It is about how your body and legs balance for ground. Maradona was shorter and lighter than both but his short and stocky legs mean he is the hardest to shake off the ball because of his low centre of gravity.

Sports Physics 101.

Seun, it's going to one month now since I made this post. Yet, you didn't give any response and no action has been taken. Your forum doesn't support African cultures and traditions.

At different occasions, I've been banned on some threads for promoting good aspects of African cultures and traditions.

I was just banned this morning as well on a general discussion thread for the same reason.

Kindly deactivate my account. I'm done here.

You can't force members to be on your site when they don't want to any longer unless Nairaland has become a cult.

A youth full of energy hiding behind his keyboard posting nonsense online calling for a 90-year-old to continue leading activism and social justice campaigns in his old age the same he'd been doing in his younger years.

Some people are sick upstairs. Spineless keyboard warrior

BlueRayDick:


U asked what has Wole Soyinka become and I have tried to reply u as civil as I can ever be while overlooking ur attempts to make attack the prof’s personae ( A bait I chose not to fall for )

I know u have Celebrity Obsession Disorder which makes u get hard-ons when u hear the name Wole Soyinka mentioned in whatever context . Nonetheless , I won’t let u control the narrative and misconstrue my posts that I’m asking an 89 year old man to lead a protest against any political class.

My post is very easy to understand for those who are open minded and not some pseudo-intellectual growing Afro forming a prof wannabe .

I don't read nonsense first thing in the morning, noisemaker and keyboard warrior. Keep ranting and rant from now till the next year, WS still remains one of the greatest African minds alive. That's a statement of fact, which is true whether he supports your candidate or not.

BlueRayDick:


Okay . I have tried to reply to ur post as civil as I can ever be and as usual u have typed as irrational and out of point as u have always done.

That’s the best u can get from me .

Just intensify your effort calling for a 90-year-old man to continue leading campaigns for social justice and activism against the corrupt political class at old age, while you (a youth full of energy) hide behind your keyboard making funny posts.

Many people are hypocrites, and people that are "real" like WS are scarce, which is why he's highly respected by many home and abroad.

Many people that make posts and noises online about good causes don't mean or practice what they say offline, and they do the direct opposite in the real world offline.

Talk is cheap. Only few humans really practice what they preach online in the real world.

BlueRayDick:


I will overlook the fact that ur paragraph was out of point and the second paragraph was almost same and I will just answer the question “ what has he become in his old age ? “

Wole Soyinka “ The activist” has become a man who now condones most of the ills he once stood against .

My post was about his activism and not about his academic/professional accomplishments . Every reasonable educated fellow knows he’s an accomplished writer who is reputed for his works all over the world .

But then there’s Wole Soyinka the activist , the man who formed Pyrates to fight for human rights and social justice . There was a Wole Soyinka who took a gun , headed to a government radio station , took over a live program and played a pre-recorded tape calling the incumbent premier of western region a thief . Why ? Because the premier of western region was generally believed to have rigged himself into power with the backing of federal might against the wishes of the people .


That was the Wole Soyinka I was talking about. That Wole Soyinka who would not agree with the official election result but took laws into his hands by committing a felony justice to force his perceived winner down everybody’s throat irrespective of what the “official” figures says . That is the man who now gets offended by a group of youths disagreeing with INEC’s official figures out out.

So u see, I’m coming from a place of someone who read what Kongi the social justice fighter had done in his youthful days in the name of what he believes to be justice

You're not making any kind of sense. He used his literary works to fight for social justice during the military era, something most online noisemakers today don't have the courage to to do. And that was partly one of the reasons he won the Nobel prize in literature.

So, you can't separate his academic achievements from his activism and social justice feats.

It's easy to make tweets online and make Nairaland posts.

Offline is the real deal, and most people are just noisemakers, including people that type silly posts on Nairaland about Wole Soyinka.

I'd take your comment more seriously if you've ever done any form of activism or organized a program that fought for social justice, not mere online noises.

If you've ever done so, then you'd see the enormity of what WS has achieved in Nigeria's history.

You're just making online noises expecting a 90-year-old to continue organizing activism and social justice programs at old age. I don't even understand how many of you reason.

Like I said before, it's easy to make online noises and rants. Offline is where the real work is, and we know the real men and women with the courage to record key achievements in the country's history, one of which is WS.

Everyone can't support your candidate. That's a reality you need to come to terms with.

BlueRayDick:


U are right, some of these things are calculated attempt at distracting the people from
The real issues .

The Wole Soyinka outburst against Obi, the introduction of the national anthem and now this phantom restructuring story . All of these 3 came on the heels of Tinubu marking one year anniversary in office with nothing tangible to show for his one year residency at the seat of power .

Investors are leaving in droves , some existing investors are shunning the country to invest elsewhere and we have food inflation going above the roof. They don’t want u discussing all these , they just want u discussing whether the national anthem was composed by a foreigner in a contest that overlooked hundred of Nigerians or that Wole Soyinka who took over a radio station with a gun in his youthful days is in a position to call out youths who insulted him for what he’s become in old age.

These things don’t matter , but that’s want they want us discussing and they are actually succeeding at it

What has Wole Soyinka become in his old age? Lols, regardless of online rants and noises like this, WS has written his name boldly on the sands of time as one of the greatest Africans of the 20th/21st century.

I just read some funny posts like this online and laugh. Wole Soyinka is currently one of the few greatest and most accomplished African writers alive. That's a fact, which is true regardless of whether he supports your candidate or not.

He has barely spent one year in office. He don dey strategize how to become a sit-tight president. What's wrong with four years for a single term?

Tinubu wan use style enjoy three terms in office (12 years for two terms in the bill draft). Lols. Tinubu never does anything for the good of the common man. It's always about him and the greed for power.

Make the northern senators no gree. Useless bill

Breaking into Upwork now will take the kind of time I can't afford. LinkedIn has served me well thus far.

With your academic qualifications and skills, you'll find it easier. There's enough money to be made on Upwork if you've key technical skills, such as research writing, technical writing, academic writing, programming, software development, and the likes.

It's low-skilled people that find it difficult getting jobs on Upwork.

I'd encourage you to consider it if you've a valid means of identification, such as international passport, voter's card, digital ID card (NIN slip alone won't be enough), or driver's license.
