IBK,
I cannot advocate the suppression of anybody's voice, that would not be me. In my opinion, there is a difference between "gate-keeping" and moderation. The former seeks to exclude, while the latter sifts. I believe that atleast, the basic rules of decency should be observed in public discourses.
Toyin disagreed with your viewpoints without throwing dirts on your person but your reply heaped doubts on his academic endervours, which was unnecesary in the circumstance.
I also love you for what you have achieved in your chosen profession and this the main reason why I feel bad any time you "miss yan" (as we say at Arugo Motor Park Owerri).
Be well always,
CAO.
