Yesterday, I was talking to some guys, I was shocked to find out that they've never heard about steemit. These weren't just random guys, these were knowledgeable people. One of them taught me most of the things I know about cryptocurrencies.
Millions of people out there, have never heard about steemit. Some just heard it in passing, but are oblivious to the multitude of opportunities on this platform. Everyday, they struggle to make ends meet. The amount of energy they put into their work is underpaid.
These are people with so much to offer; passion,creativity, value etc.

How do we reach out to them?

Campaigns
There is an ongoing move to bring in 20 million Nigerians and more, into the Steem Ecosystem and adopt Steem and SBD as a major cryptocurrency accepted and used daily for exchange; #Project20millionNaija . This Campaign is powered by @stach. The reward pool for this Campaign is about 500SBD; this is to encourage Nigerian Steemians to take the campaign to other social media platforms.
This campaign will go a long way in taking steemit to the Nigerian Nation.

Talking to friends
I'd never have known about steemit, if @samstickkz didn't tell me. He didn't just tell me, he followed me up, till i became active in the community. 45% percent of Steemians in Uyo, were all brought in by his effort. Don't just enjoy the benefit of the steem ecosystem alone, talk to people. Tell them of the opportunities on the platform, do not fail to mention the benefits as well. If all hands are on deck, in no time, steemit will reach all of Nigeria and Africa by extension.

Meet-ups
Several Steemit communities in Nigeria have been holding meet-ups, to help absorb new members, share experiences, mentor and help minnows. These meet-ups are sponsored by dedicated and passionate members of the respective communities. Without these meet-ups it will be difficult for most minnows to find their way around on steemit. We've had a lot of testimonies of the importance of these meet-ups.

Community projects
Reaching out to the less privileged as a group or as individual will go a long way in propagating the steemit community. What better season to do it than this Christmas season. This is a season of sharing and showing love. Thumbs up to @stach and @ejemai for the Air Clinic initiative.
Let's show love to Nigerians with our SBDs.

There are numerous ways to reach out to Nigerians. I'd really appreciate suggestions for you all.

To all Nigerian Steemians, let's do more.

Shout out to @stach @ejemai @onequality @nairadaddy @Thelovejunkie @Sndbox and all Nigerian Steemians for their various contributions in propagating steemit.
