Hive-Naija Weekend Engagement #59 - "2023 NIGERIA ELECTION"

Hello everyone, my beautiful hive naija people, it's another beautiful weekend and I hope those with their PVCs are ready to change the fate of our beloved country starting from tomorrow being Saturday. Well, I trust all my naija people to know the right thing to do, so I believe what's left now is to do the right thing. So without further ado, I specially welcome you to our hive naija weekend engagement which happens to be the last weekend for this month.

OBJECTIVE

As we all know, the Hive Naija Weekend Engagement is focused on promoting the togetherness of the Nigeria brethren together through engagement and it's also now concerned of the well being of each and everyone who is part of the engagement. This account was opened to make the engagement more personal and official you can find the INTRODUCTION POST to read more about the purpose and aim of this new account and also do well to follow the account so as to know when a post is made.

Last week, the topic was ", SOCIAL MEDIA/LEOTHREADS"

We had over 200+ comments last week which was great despite the fact that we had just few people who engaged, I want to appreciate you all for the consistency, quality engagement and your efforts, let's keep them coming ya all. Special thanks to everyone who makes this hang out possible.

A long time ago, I thought, I shared and I asked "Why don't we Chat on hive every Weekend?"
And you all said... YES

_{"Well, we won't be the first as there are some weekend engagement trends already on Hive! But this would be THE NIGERIAN VERSION!"}

I will drop a topic every Friday (Today's topic is below), share your thoughts on the matter, reply to someone else opinion, and interrogate the opinion if you like. Keep the discussion on. If you don't have anything to say about the topic. Just reply to someone else's comment.

Do all these in the comment section, as that is where it all goes down.

There are no further rules, please banter as you like, speak any Nigerian language (Igbo, Yoruba, pidgin, Efik), anything, as long as someone else can understand.

This week's engagement starts Immediately after you see this post and ends on Sunday at 11:59 pm.

2023 NIGERIA ELECTION

For this weekend, we will be discussing about different things, but mainly about our election. As we all know, there are different candidates going for different positions both at the federal, state and local level and we all have a role to play to helping the right people fill these different positions.

So we want to know...

• HOW HAS THE PREPARATIONS TOWARDS THE ELECTION BEING FOR YOU?

• HOW DO YOU THINK THE ELECTION WILL BE LIKE? OR HOW WAS IT? (FOR THOSE WHO WILL BE SEEING THIS LATER)

We've noticed that the engagement has been dropping a whole lot recently and we are not totally sure why but we want to encourage us to keep inviting more of our Nigeria brethren to join us and also encourage those who are no longer engaging to please do so. And on that note, we have decided to make our threads and hive post one at a time as we notice some persons are finding it hard to cope and we hope this helps carry everyone along.

Okay Let's Gist!!!!

Be as simple and sincere with the discussion, hehehe.

Don't you think we are forgetting somebody?... Well, I'm sure we are...

Oh yes before I forget, there are also prizes for those that did well to invite someone new to the party and also you that has done well to invite someone you are also not left behind because you didn't leave anyone behind. But wait... Not so fast, this time you have to be more intentional about your invite, yes that's right...you know what you benefit when you engage so why not let others know about it. In fact I will advise you to look beyond the prize and look more to doing something different even for your Naija brethren by showing them the way here.

With all that said, let the discussion begin....
