If APC bring another anti-igbo advert tomorrow, you go accept am

No need apologizing, people know who you are already

You did it few weeks ago, apologized and did it again last week

I just read the full thread, so you made only 16,000 naira? Or 16million?

He makes money from adverts which covers for the free access you have on his platform. He is only being considerate to have even posted an apology in the first place. You can go ahead and delete your account on nairaland if you wish. No body go hold you!

So you had to wait after election to "apologize" for people who don't know you to be a fox.


Well done, Seun. I am Igbo and I voted SanwoOlu (APC) because he performed well in his first term. But I can bet my balls you can never vote an Igbo man no matter how good he is.

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.

@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.

A thread about the advert was opened and his attention called to the advert.

I guess the disappointment of generating such poor income from the advert is what pissed him off.

Apology not accepted.

I am not going to call names but I remember back then when this forum was the best thing to happen to Nigerian youths. All of a sudden it turned to the worst.
Apologies or not, you can still control things here. It seems that the rules that guided the forum died long ago.
All these idiots polluting this place with tribal bigotry must be stopped or ethnic war might start from here and spread outside. It usually seems impossible until it happens.

Unless of course it's all deliberate.

I understand you're a business man, but next time if you have such an advert, please do not accept. Just contact me and I'd pay you whatever money you would have realised from the abvertorial.

It takes character to apologise.

Imagine the topic,
dear Igbo people.

Bros you dey fvk up. You and Gbadebo Chinedu needs serious media training.

Nobody sends a message like this saying Dear Igbo people. If Biden writes a letter and says Dear Black People, how does that sound like?

When George Flyod was killed, it was not about George or just black people but the injustice done to all.
If an offensive advert is placed on your forum to Anambra, it is not an attack on Anambra people alone but an offense to all.

If you had to apologize, just make it general. And stop playing like some people are being victimized and you think it will save you. You just invited cyberbullying to yourself for no reason, they will screenshot this and share it among themselves to prove they are being victimized and targeted

Now you just sounded like a child, like you didn't go to school at all, like someone that has never passed oshogbo, unexposed and illiterate. Are you learned at all?
