"these guys, unlike I and my team, still enjoy the government support."
Lol, the freedom given by Steemit is second to none, during my first ever promo Steem meet up I did last week, I met people like that, who relent on the government support on 19800naira monthly allawee as corpers - https://steemit.com/promo-steem/@ofishea/video-my-first-promo-steem-meet-up-kogi-state-nigeria
While i've made times two of that in less than a month, in the video for my first meet up, you would see the reactions of the corpers when I told them how much I made in less than a month.
Am currently in Kogi State and I've not met any old steemian here yet, so i'm representing, I hope to do some great stuffs on promo Steem here just like @ejemai has been doing so far in different states.
Keep up the good work sir, I respect your commitment.
It is amazing how we are able to connect the dots with reality from a Steemian point of view and i must also commend you for taking the Steem to your community. I hope to be able to join you on your campaign soon enough. Steem on!
Would really be an honour having you here
