You ki.lled the igbos again with your greed

The pains of biafra war
3 millions igbo children are crying on your head today

I weep for my brave igbo
Who stood up to tyranny meted to her by the Nigeria people

The are focus, the are Rich, the are intelligent
The ruled the Economy of the Nation

Truly Igbo Amaka

Salute from the North

you have started your victim stories again

how about the people killed by Nnamdi kanu

So the urchins could only come up with just 16k for advert. Very poor people.

And oga just realized that 16k is too small.

Well, Judas realized that 30 pieces of silver wasn't worth it but then it was too late.

This is needless. I was one of those that supported that the ad should be removed but this your epistle is needless.

This apology will only expose you to more trolling and cyberbullying.

You dont form WOKE when it comes to political matters.... no time for sitting on the fence you need to be on one side. Dont let cybermobs determine your choice for you.

doublewisdom:

Na now day break for this one. Your advert has served it's tribal purpose already.

it has done its work

Seun:
Dear Igbo People,

I sincerely apologize for allowing a toxic political banner advert which said, "Lagos can never be run from Anambra; go and vote" to run on Nairaland for several hours on Wednesday, March 15, 2023.

The mischievously worded banner advert appears to have been part of an ethnically divisive political campaign aimed at securing Lagos State for the ruling party by instilling fear in Yoruba people, making them believe that Igbo people intended to "take over" Lagos State.

Such ethnically divisive political campaigns have no place in a forward-thinking democracy, and for this reason, the ad should have been taken down instantly. No harm was intended, but my lack of forethought about the ethics of that type of advert led to a disappointing outcome.

We should have had a clear policy against accepting negative and ethnically divisive ads on Nairaland, we should have communicated it to all advertisers, and we should have taken down any advert that violated that policy instantly. This will all be in place before the next election.

We made almost N16,000 from the ad. We will double it and donate it to victims of political violence in Lagos.

Please, do NOT give up on Nigeria. The times are challenging, but TOGETHER, we will overcome.

Sincerely,
Seun Osewa.

It's was really too much on us, for just supporting our own brother, after how many years of marginalization in our one Nigeria...

Seun, I enjoyed your twitter post of Late.
I understand this is happening as you are seeing the trend of tribal slurs and how many emanated.

Apologies accepted, but this is an eye opener.

thebosstrevor1:


Seun apologise to your people, you are still spreading hate written by an ignorant person

I don't know seun and I don't care about his apology

You call what happened in Lagos hate written by by an ignorant, ? What happened in Lagos was no secret the Yoruba's made it known to everyone

It's well...And to think you promoted GRV on your platform only to accept ads with a dagger to his heart!!

Going forward, a clarion call should be put across to Igbos nationwide to boycott voting outside South East nor Igbo groups endorsing any political candidate. That will be fair enough!!

Also the "Nigerian Anthem" should with immediate alacrity be recomposed, because the phrase "To build a nation where peace and justice shall reign" is obviously a big scam...

FreeStuffsNG:
So the apology of Seun is not tenable and needed niyen

He be like you nor see the publications about Igbo. Na hot soup he siddon so. Make you dey play.

Not surprised, Seun is an 'obedient' apologist.

@Seun this is medicine after death. The deed has been done.

The owner of this site and his appointed mods are core tribalists. Election has ended, this pro APC site has been used as a tool against the Igbos as intended and mockery disguised as apology is presented. Lol.

Nonsense apology
After the damage, if the real fight start una no go fit stand

thebosstrevor1:
LMAO...Seems like they have threatened you

Anytime you apologize you set up yourself up for more bullying, you can see that already.

I have never heard Nnamdi Kanu apologize for all the death he has caused all over the place through twitter, facebook and youtube, even the CEOs of the various platforms he spread his hatred didnt apologise.

Man dem!, you will continue to apologize forever, until you realize that you cant please everyone.

exactly. Seun is weak. He tries his best to be fair, but they mock his weakness.

Why are you still focusing on the hate even after the apologies, it is obvious that nothing can stop you, that is why i think Seun is not supposed to apologize at the first place.

What i hate in my life is hypocrisy, the igbos have done worst than what was advertised but you dont see the Yorubas or northerners complaining.

I saw the ad and was like wtf!

I commend your good intention. There were worse adverts everywhere here and outside Nairaland.

I hope you understand that no matter what your good inention is, you can only do your best. It is good for good conscience.

But note, you can never please most of the Ndi Igbo. They will seize on it and find fault.

Well done Seun. More grace to your Elbow.

@Seun, you blocked me on Twitter after I called your attention to this same ad.

I wasn't even abusive, I just said "have you seen this? Seun" And you blocked me.

Not that it matters. Just calling out your hypocrisy.

Read through the lines of what you are posting, you will see the hate

the writer is literally saying that all Igbos are neat and all yorubas are dirty

Be truthful to yourself for once. This is a pipe dream.

Kininifoods:
A big shame seun..

A big shame

No one will hold APC responsible though.. your name is soiled in the history of ethnic bigotry and tribalism.. I am Yoruba but I hold you responsible for allowing your platform to be used for such mischievous campaign..

Looks like people have finally sat you down and chastised you because until yesterday, you were still arguing about how that particular ad can cause mayhem to a targeted group.

You saw for yourself the outcome.. people who looked like Igbo sef collect.. Igbo man with APC membership wasn't spared..

History won't be kind to you and no! Apology not accepted.. your 32k donations is not the deserved justice meted out to any of the victims. Keep it!

thanks u,don't mind diz apc urchin,they think d thug they used know them,after election they will still go back to road, continue harassing pple that still support them and pple that did not support.
U see how they attack my Friends who are Yoruba themselves, because believe they look Igbo.

We accept your apology bro. Together we the igbos, yoruba and house commoners can liberate our selves from the evil , oppressive government we have today. We are not giving up on this battle. United we are, victorious we will be. Let peace reign.

FreeStuffsNG:
It is politics. Waiting for Mr Obaseki to apologise to Lagosians for Edo no be Lagos ad

Yorubas are the progenies of the Bini people. It's like two sisters having an argument.

jimyjames:

you must be stupid. You think you can indirectly insult yorubas. Yes thugs were stoping fresh people from voting. The reason is they think woke people including woke yorubas did not buy into their agenda. It is as simple as that. Those thugs do not represent us, they are the bad eggs among the yorubas just as you are one of the bad eggs among igbos
