Bringing the Nigeria Niger Delta to Steemit...

Fellow Steemits,

My name is Ogechi and I decided to put pen to paper today as a result of the latitudinal audience I’ve seen that Steemit commands; of course all credits to my very close pal @Chuks who introduced me to it.

I’ve actually tried very hard to overcome that inertia to hit my keypads and come on board Steemit; coming from an engineering background with a specialty in oil and gas drilling (formation evaluation)…..where my entire life has revolved round oil rigs, taking off and landing in helicopters and airplanes…..trying to access remote locations all in a bid to drive hydrocarbon against gravity from where God hid it beneath the earth to the surface.

My blogging here in Steemit will encompass a whole gamut of personal experiences as I journeyed to most parts of the world, information on the oil rich Nigeria Niger Delta and its concomitant environmental pollution, youth restiveness and militancy; also give an insight into the rich cultural heritage of the South East and South-South region of Nigeria – a region that accounts for Nigeria ranking as the largest oil producer in Africa in addition to very many other contemporary issues.

I’ve already seen that the group is a very warm and lively one garnished with rich content; I’ve therefore fastened my seat belts to learn from you as we all rub minds. Please feel very free to comment, follow, like and resteem my posts as well.

Thanks again for your time; I’m super excited to be here!
