Hey man, took my time to get back to this. Great idea you've got there. Back when people thought they got the most to earn from this place, meetups were a thing. Sadly, people lack loyalty and they leave when they think something isn't working anymore, even supposed community leaders.
There's a big Steem meet-up coming up around July/august in Akwa Ibom state. That's a few months away and i think your idea for a meet-up on a small scale is welcomed. I wish these small meetups were still frequent every now and then.
Sadly, I'll simply tag a few friends who stay around the area who might be interested as I don't stay in Lagos. Hope you get around doing it and I hope it turns out fine.
Shameless plug: I'll be in Ibadan for a blockchain event soon. It was slated for next week Saturday but I heard the general elections have been postponed to that same date. Bummer! However, we'll be rescheduling (possibly 2nd March) and since Ibadan is pretty much close to Lagos, I'd love to see if you could make it. Hoping it doesn't clash with any of your priorities.

Brother. this is one of the pressing challenges we face in the world today, because the world is moving rapidly fast, no one wants to patiently gain grounds, people just wanna do things fast fast, and that way there's no room for consistency because if it goes south, they bail. Its quite sad you know.. @pangoli
I also think the idea of meetups gives people more clearer perspectives as to what they want and what steem is all about and let's not overlook the fact that we make new blockchain buddies and friends anytime there's a meet up, then we get to reconnect with other old folks.
Wish i could be at Awka Ibom for the meet up, i am pretty sure it'll be a big one!
Thanks for reading man. That was a long one. Given you a follow. You can hit me up on Discord anytime with pangoli[ i-am-Groot]#1084. Also, I noticed you're an engineer. You should checkout @steemstem among other communities. It's a friendly place for science enthusiasts and professionals. I'll be seeing you around, man.
Thanks a lot mate. Guess i'll be seeing you around too sir. @pangoli
RESPECT!
Hey Surf. If you're interested in partnering or speaking at this event, i might have a way to get you in on it man. I heard you came to Nigeria the other time for SIN2, saw the pictures. Sadly i had my hands full at the time. Would be happy to get a reply on this. We could chat on discord if you'd prefer that. Respect here too!!!
You never cease to amaze me, this is a great idea.
