You needed to have seen my face when this man walked into the room. It was a legit standing ovation as we welcomed the visionary @ejemai of @stach into @tojukaka's room.

An awesome atmosphere it was. The faces of those who have been impacted, one way or the other, by this #LivingLengend, on seeing him, corroborated my story.

There was a pronounced appreciation of the man whose passion about @steemit has resulted in massive contribution to the African steemit community (@steemit-ghana, Togo, and many Steemit Acceleration Hubs in Nigeria (most espcially the just recently launched @stach hub in Uyo in Akwa Ibom state and other West African Nations at large. See details here

@ejemai talked about how happy He was, just to see that the imaginations he had always had since finding steemit few months back, were becoming a huge reality.

Using one of @fisteganos' recent posts on dtube as point reference, He particularly encouraged us to continue to create quality content adding that "reward only comes from value created".

Also in attendance were strong steemians and @stach brand promoters such as the hillarous @tojukaka, world renowned @destinysaid, the influencial @samstickkz the CEOs of @Cryptonafrica (@emmexdee and @moziano), @evelyniroh an Uyo-based whale together with beautiful @emem and Telecommunications guru @japfive.

To add to an already educative mini-meetup, (#TeamCryptonAfrica) had a closed door session with some very important personalities in the steemit community Nationwide. @destinysaid @tojukaka and @japfive were hell-bent on learning about @Cryptonafrica's Crypto-Trading Model (a tool/course in the fully loaded starter pack at the #Cryptonacademy).

It would interest you to know that these guys are a few weeks away from becoming full time #CryptoTraders. What are you waitiing for? Sign up here today.

The fun afterwards was remarkable.
It all started when @tojukaka decided to 'tear our shirts' with random upvotes. 😁
As if that was not enough, @japfive also joined in embarrasing me with upvotes on all my valid posts.. OMG!
Now to add sugar to honey, @destinysaid was right on time to set everyone on a course to our destiny (u🐕pvotes non-stop)

The world famous and Uyo's very own @tojukaka and @dayveedben

Quite frankly, I had one of the best educative sessions in a long while, I mean, these guys are as smart and equally as brilliant as they appear. Even after about 5 hours of interaction, we were reluctant and unwilling to path ways. I mean the ideas kept on coming in.

Ideas as regards how we could give back to our communities courtesy steemit. This led to a mini brain-storming session and I got to think along-side some great whales!

We came up with an all-inclusive project that when implemented, would reach out in any and everyway, to the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in NORTHERN NIGERIA. #Steemsavers coming soon...

Projects such as:

  1. Production of Electricity through the use of the Wind Vane and Turbine systems in affected areas of the Insurgency in the North.
    (@destinysaid particularly liked this one)

  2. Reward schemes for everyone who successfully promotes @steemit in such environments to improve the standard of living in these remotely vandalized economy
    (Sugested by @tojukaka and @samstickkz)

The only question without an answer that was asked was Who will go for us? hahaha.. Volunteers are welcomed to show interest in the comment section of this post.
Also, suggestions on possible plausible projects which can be implemented are welcomed in the comment section also.

Well more updates will come your way as soon as they unfold. Meanwhile its been fun since signing up into this community. I can confidently say the future holds alot in store for all genuine steemians. Keeps steeming!
