RE: Nigerians Should Become Investors And Not Opportunist On Steemit

in #nigeria7 years ago (edited)

The Nigerian community is vast and we have to always ensure everyone gets voted, although truth be told, not everyone can get it and some won't even get at all. Why? Because they have zero presence and interaction.
Three hours a day is the average sleep I also get and sometimes people think we are just people who are finding it easy or mining gold as curators, they need to understand that they should be focused on growing their community rather than destroying it.

Ask not what your country can do for you, rather what you can do for your country.

That quote above applies to Nigeria as a community on the platform. Must you wait to be freely delegated before you can make a difference? Will the delegation bring out what is not there? This is why our politicians fail when they eventually get into power, because they feel they have to hold an office to make a difference.
Before there was a Nigerian tag, were people not surviving? Do they, can they or will they ever know the sacrifices we as curators undergo just to boost the communities?

I hear so many people saying they want to be curators, My question is "can they spare their earnings and time for the community, can they power down their earnings to run an NPP (non-profit project) on steemit so as to help others grow?"

I love the beautiful question attached at the end, like I said when you see people complaining all the time, you need to checkmate them, they become poisons in power. How many times have I called you in the middle of the night to discuss plans to grow the platform? How many times have you done the same? What about @fisteganos, @ogoowinner and @destinysaid who tirelessly work to grow Nigeria.
People have bastardized alts to cause division in the community for selfish reasons.

There is barely a day that the Nigerian curators do not curate post and there is barely a day that Nigerians don't get flagged by @steemcleaners for plagiarism, copy/paste, spam and tag spam.

The worst part is they still do it after repeated warnings.
Curation might be an entitlement, but it is not a birthright.
Nigerian curators have one of the highest number of daily curated posts despite Nigeria NOT being the largest community on the platform, yet we have probably the highest number of dissatisfied authors on the platform. They think steemit is actually that easy right, how many of them went months on end without a decent potential payout? How many of the do proper networking? Most will expect manna to fall from heaven and blame authors who take extra steps to get curated which is wrong.

My social life is zero, it's work! work!! work!!! and someone will be planting the seeds of discord all around the community, the person will be hiding behind alts to cause ruckus here and there. Retribution is coming.

You have spoken well. We need to appreciate ourselves and not cause division amongst ourself
