Yesterday 20th January, 2018 was fun and definetly one of the best days of 2018 as a new hub " Steem Acceleration Hub (stach)" was Launched.

The few people that were able to come early

The event started with an opening prayer by one of the newbies after which an opening remark was made by at @ejemai the initiator of Stach which is "powered by Steem" .

@Ejemai making opening remarks

According to him, starting Steemit alone, he never thought this kind of crowd will follow him, he never thought there could be something called "Stach" in existence but here he's with us, (I think he got emotional here. Lol),has gone to different African countries cos of promoting Steemit even though when he started Steemit in early 2017, he knew nobody, not even any Nigerian. He made mention of his first six posts not getting any views nor upvotes but he never gave up.

He said the sole aim of bringing about stach is to enable decentralization in Africa starting from Nigeria and this is the second hub being launched in Nigeria.

After his remarks, he officially opened the hub.

Then @gbenga decided to answer and gave a satisfying answer.

After @onequality was done, @nairadaddy was called on.

He told us about his journey on Steemit alone but he made it and made these friends too. Going further,he admonished us never to give up cos we already have them to guide and direct us as he's into training newbies on Steemit. He said ours would be alot easier as we have people ahead of us already.
He finally said something about @utopian-io and said we should create a discord or whatsapp group and invite him for some tutorials on it.

Also, @destinysaid was called on as he emphasized more on quality posts and also pliagrising post which is bad.

Their main aim is to help educate newbies who would love to go into crypto market, newbies who want to invest in Cryptocurrency but are confused about the one to invest in.

Finally, @ejemai and @samstickkz made some remarks.

@samstickkz who is the head of @steemit-uyo community was very happy for the new hub opened for @steemit-uyo community.

@Ejemai further emphasized on decentralisation, saying the aim is to empower the African youths not to depend on the government and corrupt politicians, to make youths create their own world and living it.

@Ejemai talking more about Decentralisation

According to him, he said its time the youths get back the power from the government and control things the way they want. I got impacted from all he said.
He also said that the most important thing is that the hub was paid for and furnished with money made from Steemit, that no government official had his hand on it. Like "dem no born any governor well to come talk say Na him help us furnish here"

After his remarks, the cake was cut.
