For your mind, you fit say Seun go make you co-founder of nairalandabi? Keep dreaming. I yimmu for you.

Lanceslot:
Make sure you mention and link me up with it when its done....

Seun:
Fellow Nairalanders,

Nairaland loves Igbos and Niger Deltans very much. The thought of being separated from them for any reason is unbearable to us, so we have decided that we will reject any attempt by anyone to use Nairaland to promote the idea of removing Igbos and Niger Deltans from Nigeria.

We have updated rule 9 of Nairaland to reflect this decision. It now says:


I'd like to urge all Nairaland members to respect and obey rule 9. Mynd44 is in charge of enforcing it. If you break this rule, you'll be banned.

Thanks,
Seun (Founder Of Nairaland).

Sister no vex oo, but I can't see any atom of intelligence in the way he communicated it. He just sounded like someone who wants to say sth but lacks the proper words to pass it across. Lame. dts the word I will use to describe that. he should hv given some good reasons for his decision, rather than sounding like someone who is trying to avoid sth.

sukkot:
yes you are. we need to get that nice spare part good deal

NewNigeriaMind:


God my friend is not an hypocrite.

When seun created this forum, he didn't create it to promote successions and anti-Nigeria elements.

SMH!!

Oh, I don't give a bleep 'bout that, I'm saying you need not tell us. just do it. mtcheew

eazydon:
Okay. Maybe you are tired of owning Nairaland. Know ye this, You have lost a big followership with this. And be prepared to see a total decline in your ad sales, and perhaps permanent shutdown of Nairaland. We give you 76hours to rescind on this decision, or expect a catastrophe of Bibilical proportions.

A word is enough for the...

AtlanticBreeze:

mark has biafra agitations and several other national and international agitations on Facebook, infact there are nothing less than 50,000 biafra groups and Facebook pages on Facebook. When Texas citizens were agitating to secede after Obama won 2nd tenure, mark didn't crack down on them... Free speech must be respected that's what social media is all about but trust black man seun to be shamelessly partisan.. smh

pesinfada:
if u call biafra anti-nigerian elements what will u call bokoharam?u nd seun is nt serious,God will punish u ppl 4denyin biafrans dia human rights.

funny thing is that the igbos had a site that was rivalling nairaland in popularity around 2005 - 2006. in fact it was more popular. i used to visit the site. very addictive. it was owned by an igbo guy based in new york. i forget his name now. he was a programmer. the site was called NAIJARYDERS. but you know like anything that is china made, anything that is igbo made dont last lol. he probably didnt have the foresight seun has by holding onto the site when money was not yet coming in. you know our boys from the east like the cash quick and fast. but i am telling you the site was more popular than nairaland. on a thread you may get like 200 people or more. well the igbo guy just abandon the site and and it folded.

NewNigeriaMind:


I understand that may be your life ambition.... don't worry nobody is dragging it with you

@Seun

Let me add that you should have employed a PR specialist to advice you on this. Your tittle should appear neutral even if you had something else in mind.

It shouldn't have been addressed to any specific tribe or group. It should have simply said,

Dear Nairalanders,

Nairaland is devoted to promoting Nigeria as a single indivisible entity. As such we do not subscribe to being used to promote any secessionist theory or goal.

To this end all posts that promote division or session in whatever form will no longer be allowed on Nairaland, as it goes against our values. This new rule will therefore affect all calls for Biafra, Oodua Republic, Niger Delta Republic, Arewa Republic etc

Violation of this new rule will attract an automatic ban.

Thank you for understanding and I hope your stay on Nairaland continues to be fun, engaging and insightful.

God Bless Nairaland, God Bless Nigeria.

Wishing the best of the Season and a wonderful 2016.

Seun

warrior01:
You go ban tire na. So what happens to freedom of expression and beliefs? So Yorubas are free to aspire and promote their Odua beliefs and Hausas, Arewa but Igbos of course are to be banned to talk or aspire for their beliefs in Biafra. Highly disappointed in you Seun.

What stops you from coming up with a superior argument why they should remain in Nigeria? Why are you so scared to discuss Biafra? Must we all have the same line of thoughts or intellectual discourse? I reject being or tagged a zombie where a fellow man will dictate what I discuss.

ngmgeek:


And who said gerarahia? Your brother or my brother? mugu!

PresVA:
Thought you said people are solely responsible for whatever they post?



Meanyl, enough posts will be hidden today

kwis:

I see

Adebowaletunji:

DEAR U DIDNT FOLLOW THE NEWS WELL....AFENIFERE THREATENED SECESSION

PointB:
It's quite sad that Seun will take such hard-core position. I feel hes being threatened or induced. Either way, he's being compromised and I'll most likely stop commenting here or perhaps deactivate my account all together. I believe there are other more welcoming and pro-biafran/Igbo sites to spend my time.


No big deal.
