KOVIC19COVID20: Was he banned because of that altercation? If he was that's hugely unfair. I normally waka pass the dramas here, but as I remember it, his advice in the Tv license thing was sound. 9 Likes |

KOVIC19COVID20:Finally someone here get me. Phew!! The same Mamatukwas, i have never said anything or post anything when she sort her BDC things instead I have advise few on Nairaland to do transactions with her as she is legit. Instead all I got is all the unnecessary gbas gbos while I was trying to subtly pass my message on. Anyways it worked as someone earlier posted a link that can help anyone bringing in food for personal use. Which I hope will help us just as the TV license info helped. |

LagosismyHome:When I read his initial post, I didn't think it had any malice or intent to pull down her business. I didn't also think he accused her of illegal dealings. What I understood was him giving insider information that we should all be careful when importing things as the government is planning to scrutinise it more. That is what I understood. 3 Likes |

davide470:If he was banned as a result of the TV license thing then that is wrong. My major problem with the mod here is the penchant to ban dissenting voices even if they have not committed an offense. Justwise please unban him. We need as many people as possible to make this thread lively and informative. 9 Likes |

TheGuyFromHR: Maybe you need to go back to read his replies to my posts, this is not even the first or second time he does this, every time we have debate here he will pick on my post with insults. I can pull out posts regarding this. How come i haven't banned everyone that disagrees with me here? How come he is the only person that got banned? Calling me a criminal for not opening door to TV lience people? I have no class for not reporting that i don't streaming live program? How many of you here have i banned? LagosismyHome: Have i ever banned you before but we have disagreed on many issues. How many of you here have i ever banned? Even when we don't agree on the same issue? Don't i have the right to give my opinion on issue without receiving insults from someone? Don't streaming any live program and i don't want to pay for something i don't use but i still get called a criminal. 2 Likes |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by justwise(m): 10:31am On Jun 08, 2021 |
dustydee: Point out a single person i banned here that did nothing wrong, just one, mention the person's ID and i will pull out the post. |

dustydee: Nah, English exists as a common lingua franca to hopefully help us communicate clearly. That way the chances of ‘misreading’ a situation becomes quite slim. There is NO way I could have surmised from and I quote: ‘My Team and I are watching’ #Justsaying’ in response to a perfectly normal post that it was meant to be anything positive. This thread exists to educate, inform, encourage (I hope), if you want to do so, do so. If anyone sends out wrong information and you know better, state it clearly so we can all learn. The poster missed a golden opportunity to educate us on aspects of food import that we may have benefited from. Telling us you are ‘Watching’ is supposed to help me how please? Furthermore, if myself or anyone else who responded misunderstood the poster, there was AMPLE opportunity to clear it up quickly yesterday. But no. I’ve sha promised someone I respect to drop the matter so I’m dropping it. Apologies accepted if the poster truly didn’t mean it. Cheers. 5 Likes |

justwise: If we have to wield the big stick every time someone insults us, we all will become tyrants, dictators, authoritarians, autocrats, Buhari, Idi Amin, Hitler, among other names. Stop banning people for just calling you names. It’s abuse of power and an infringement on their freedom of expression - simple. What you did is not any different from what Buhari did with Twitter. He felt disrespected and banned Twitter, while you also felt disrespected and banned that fellow! Stop it, it’s beneath you and unbecoming of a gatekeeper. 25 Likes 1 Share |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by icon8: 10:43am On Jun 08, 2021 |
justwise: You have to be more tolerant. “Insulting” you is not an offence. Come on, man! It’s a free world. Is name calling a ban-able offence on Nairaland? If so, Buhari is a saint compared to the rulers of this forum. Sigh 2 Likes |

justwise: Thanks for educating me on that. I must admit I never read the rules - not worth my time. However, if that’s the case, I move to expunge and repeal Rule 2 from the Nairaland constitution, since it’s the season of constitution amendments in Nigeria. Any seconders? #FreeRalphJean 4 Likes |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by icon8: 10:48am On Jun 08, 2021 |
justwise: The same way Buhari “banned” Twitter and you all are having a meltdown? You are either pro free speech or anti. There can’t be no middle ground or double standards! #FreeRalphJean 1 Like |

Mamatukwas: I have absolutely no prob with nobody arguing or debating with me, but don't just come with an insult simply because you feel that i'm cracking down on scammers here unfairly, yes that was his reason for throwing insult at me each time the opportunity presents itself |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Divine88: 10:54am On Jun 08, 2021 |
Mamatukwas: Ma i think you missed the two letters after ‘watching’ Anyways I will brush up on constructing my statements next time when posting or replying. Thank you Ma. Am so happy my apologies was accepted oo Ire oooo |

Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by r4blessing: 11:09am On Jun 08, 2021 |
honestly @ Justwise you cannot unilaterally banned someone because they called you a criminal or some other insults. That is all shades of wrong. This is a clear case of if man was God 5 Likes |

Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by icon8: 11:26am On Jun 08, 2021 |
justwise: Because that’s the hallmark of a dictator? What that means is that if you had the power to kill or throw people in jail for just insulting you, you’d do it. What that further means is that you are no different from Generals Buhari and Abacha, Messrs Kim Jong-un, Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini, amongst other notorious human rights abusers living and dead! 1 Like |

Justwise, you are being untruthful here. Some of us followed that argument very carefully. That guy NEVER called you a criminal. If I recall correctly, and I am sure I recall correctly. The guy said not paying Tv licence is a criminal offense in the uk. Which is very true. I dare you to unban him, then bring back all his posts that you deleted, and show us exactly where he insulated you. 5 Likes |
