Great Our Nairaland made the list

Ehh if NAIRALAND is not There I would have BOMB the whole Internet.

true talk oooo

Good to see NAIRALAND in the list, I registered in 2009. During my NYSC, all my roomates about 30corpers in big room were all Nairalanders and we came from different state.
kudos to Seun Osewa and his team.

I enjoy Nairaland when it comes to critical comments between the AFONJAS vs UGWU CHASERS.........
make I run commot b4 dem go come injure me nao because I dey their land.

May God bless Seun very much. Sir Seun, you have made a great positive impact in our generation. I celebrate you more than all our So-called celebrities put together. Nairaland should be recognized by the government, and Seun should receive national award. The knowledge and solution nairaland provides, a combination of facebook, twitter, whatsapp and the rest of them can't provide it. If nairaland where to be own by a white man especially USA, the site would have been as popular and rated along side with facebook, yahoo, etc

The LASU Forum on my signature is coming here soon as well as my beloved www.badagryforum.com.ng too!

You guys are the most wicked souls on Earth, vandalizing other peoples work without remorse. Look at the way you copied someone else article and pose as the writer. You posted it here on Nairaland and also on your mediocre blog with a link back to your stupid blog as if its coming from you?

Kindly remove this content here and on your blog immediately or I will take Google DMCA actions against your blog and report you to your host.

Respect Mr seun osewa

Nice one.

Check my profile for my forum link.

What about reddit

Reddit is a social bookmarking website.

To be sincere Seun needs national recognition. He has motivated and impacted so many lives in Nigeria. Today, we can do more better than some Westerners. Take a look at naija whot game and [url=everyknows.com] Every knows[/url] these people have all done well. I look forward to see a social media website by a Nigeria that will compete with Facebook and Instangram. I believe in my people. One day......
