Interesting point you make. However bad eggs are everywhere... If you think Nigerians are bad, try the russians! So you need to dump that mentality that the world perceives Nigerians as the worst of bad sorts... No!
There may be terrible Nigerians out there, but there are even more terrible citizens of other nations. The only reason why Nigeria seems to always come up first on international radar is because we are naturally ostentatious, we love to show off. Thats why Nigerians always stand out wherever they are, whatever they are into... Its not that others dont do better or worse, its just that there is a showmanship in the way Nigerians do this, that always get them noticed while others pass on unobserved...
I understand your zeal and the zeal of other Nigerians to sanitize steemit, but call to mind that you are dealing with human beings too, so at all times, be respectful of that fact, and handle Nigerians dealing off handedly in a matured way, and not with outright threatenings, like as if you are schoolmasters with canes, and the defaulters are truant students who must be punished by flogging...Its a good warning you are putting out here... But however, lets be civil and diplomatic in the way we handle these issues, let us also show the international community here that we are level headed and respect freedom of speech here, which is what steemit stands for, freedom of speech. Let us learn from the likes of @sherlockholmes and fellow steemians who are fighting spammers and scammers at the global steemit level, they never degenerate into threatening, and lashing out of heated words at the apprehended accounts, rather they relate with them in civilized manner and mete out action on them in very matured ways.
I am saying all this because i took steemit seriously, because i saw it as a marketing opportunity for my internet online earning activities, and i faced a very tough and hostile resistance here from certain Nigerians, i was only beginning to understand how steemit works, and was really upset with the schoolboy way i was treated, but i decided to overlook the immature reaction of those who were fighting for the steemit cause, and rather embrace the good in steemit which they were really trying to pass across to me, however not properly... And thats why i am still here in steemit, because i was quick in understanding and appreciating the value of steemit, in revolutionzing the way to earn money online... But i thought to myself, if other Nigerians are treated in this same manner when they come to steemit, they not knowing the power of steemit, but coming with what they know how to do already, facing such hostile reaction from our Nigerian protectors of the steemit image, many of them will just back out, and forget about steemit
So tell me, is that what we really want for steemit? To exclude people from it, whom with a little politeness, diplomacy and maturity, we could have included into the steemit community.
