Taking Abuja (the heart of Nigeria) to Steemit!

Hello Steemians!

It is a great pleasure to get this community on Steemit. This platform intends to showcase the Capital of Nigeria, Abuja and Nigeria at large to the Steemit environment. It is a new platform, and so we feel it will be courteous to first introduce the platform.

Nigerians are relatively new to Steemit, and the likes of @anjiba, @chiama and @softouch have been making efforts tirelessly to take Steemit to as many as can be reached. Many self-funded seminars have been organized at different locations, first in Abuja, before we'll strategize on how to extend beyond the city.

In the post of @anjiba, https://steemit.com/promo-steem/@anjiba/abuja-must-hear-about-steemit-my-three-days-journey-of-promoting-steemit-in-the-city-of-abuja-this-week of January 15th, he chronicled one of such seminars at Dutse, Abuja. And to say the least, the turnouts have really been wonderful. I am confident that, as @anjiba put it, 'ABUJA MUST HEAR ABOUT STEEM IT'.

Below are some images from these seminars.

As a result of the great turnouts from our audience that surpassed our expectations, we have decided to create this community.

The account shall be moderated by @anjiba and @softouch, and will, among other things, undertake the following functions:

  1. Unites all Steemians in Abuja, Nigeria and the country at large. We hope to launch a website soon where all Steemians in Abuja and its environs can register and come together to collaborate. On the sites, experienced Steemians will be able to assist the newbies on how to succeed on Steemit. We also intend to connect the site to the Steemit platform.
  2. Showcase Abuja and Nigeria to the rest of Steemians.
  3. For fun, organize fests, competitions, puzzles among Steemians within Abuja and environs, and rewards every the top 3 contributors.
  4. Encourage Steemians who are doing well and working hard with their Steemit Accounts, by referencing their works, and as well, inspire new and dormant Steemians to put further efforts.
  5. Use parts of the fund generate by this account to assist the needies—orphanages, charity and so on.

Meanwhile, for the meantime, take your time around the beautiful city of Abuja:
