Hi everyone...Steemians right?
As you must have seen from my Username, my Name is Solomon, from Nigeria.
I have had a few days to really ponder on what i would write as my introductory post...every attempt to write something extra special and awesomely attractive, came out worse...at least that was how i felt. So i have decided to do what am always good at, be spontaneous and apply a bit of versatility.
As a well exposed black man, a young Nigerian for that matter, i know it's not so easy get to the attention of people outside the African continent, ( aside being a cyber-crime suspect ) Its not new to the Nigerian youth anymore, most of whom have embraced the overgeneralized notion and put it to various use...for good or for bad, depending on the individual in particular.
As for me, i sew it as a challenge, a call, for us to fight, to stand out and make bold move to change that though in that thought from our neighboring continents.
It is one of those things that drives me to decide i would make a name for my self across the world, from my little connecting point to the outside world...the internet. I have gone from Freelancing sites such as freelancer, to fiver, Etsy all the way, even to Paypal...all with my real Name and country details.
One of the insults
"The first month PayPal launch the Nigeria, we were all filled with joy, only to be told we can't accept payments because they believe we would abuse it". whats an insult! (my own opinion oh!)
So finally to Steemit, Here i am...A young black man, a Nigerian. An African. I am here to mark a mark, not just money...i want to be followed by the big whales...not just for the upvote...no, but because they see value in what i have to say! I want to use that as encouragement to others like me.
In most of my post, will be speaking to the youths and focus more on how we can make a better future for our selves by determination, how to grow the zeal for diligence and excellence in all we do, how to break away the stigma that have lingered with us as Nigerian young adults for so long.
Finally, i promised you all reading this, you will never regret following me and i shall follow you back too.
Thanks Steemit.com for this Opportunity, big Thanks to all my followers, upvoters and resteemers.
Lets go for glory!!
