A CALL FOR NIGERIAN'S UNITY ON STEEM: BY WORDS OR BY DEEDS?

##### I was opportuned to be at the steemit meet-up in Lagos Nigeria 2017, and i saw the sacrifice and zeal, of a true Nigerian Steemian @Oluwoleolaide, he isn't just a steemian, he was one of the first hands i feel into, when i started my steemit Journey, and im proud to say i learnt many things from him.

##### Yesterday i saw his post calling for a united Nigeria on steemit as he frowned against disfragmented groups making the centre stage very week, i was moved to tears, finally somebody spoke what needed to be done.

##### @surpassinggoogle once told me that moving as a unit is what will move Nigeria forward, but when i look around, i don't see that.
##### I also saw @gbenga post this morning calling for a united Nigeria, that was when i knew i was right about something, and what was i right about?

##### You see i could have be long gone away from steemit, because when i joined newly, i was lost, i had nobody to call and talk to, the first Nigerians i met blatantly told me not to disturb them, just because i ask them to at least tell me what i have to do on steemit.

##### You see, i was demoralized, i was on the verge on quitting. 

##### Steemit is not just a place where you have to earn and go away, Nigerians forget its a social network.
##### Of course @gbenga tried to bring Nigerians together by creating the Nigerian badge and i saw his intentions were laudable. Now how many Nigerians who have been here for a while can i point at and laud their selflessness?

##### fragmented groups are the only thing i see, no centre stage platform where all Nigerians, can achieve big things together. NO!

##### Just being two months old here, i wanted to speak to @Bania, about an agenda of creating a one Nigeria platform for all, but i have messaged a few top dogs here, and they read my message and never replied, now how can we have a one Nigeria, when all we are doing is a rat race?

##### Establishing groups here will not take us anywhere, its just like dividing Nigeria, we are divided already, i have a goal to make a platform where we can all work together as one.
##### I suffered greatly in my first week, now how many new nigerians will have to face this and still continue?

##### We are growing and that is true, but with this lackadaiscal approach, we may stutter , doing campaign and holding flags and steemit logos, and holding talk shows is not the real deal, how about building up your prospective convert? How about helping them grow? But NO! we focus on the big things and forget the small things.

##### Today i weep because our unity is crumbling, some users now feel like bosses, they believe that talking to a newbie, is a shameful act, they hail @surpassinggoogle but never really key into his concept of love.

##### I was just a rep 40, when he spoke to me and encouraged me, how many rep 60's and above have that mindset of building a bridge where every user can cross and talk to each other?

##### Forgive me if im being sentimental, but im wrong? I could have left steemit due to a few of our wonderful brother's harsh words, but im happy im here, i'd wish to touch lives, but i need to be encouraged too.

##### I want every single Nigerian both here and in the diaspora to heed my call, let us kill our pride, @dragonslayer109 is one of the meekest guys i ever spoke to, despite all the achievement he had here.

##### Please, decentralization is killing our community, let us participate, together and in one voice and heal our country.

##### A few here has been wonderful to me, and there's no silver and gold that can repay that.
##### We can build something build, in love and unity shalll we stand if we say **YES**
I do hope my message settles in.

Don’t worry yourself too much @josediccus...  you’re doing a good job on Steemit.
 It takes time for change... but your on your way 🤓.
  As the saying goes ... Rome was not built in one day.

  So relax and give your community time to grow...
