Here is the recording from the last conversation we had on Sunday on the Telegram group
This is the first official newsletter of the Hive Naija Community. In our newsletters, we will be highlighting the top 3 to 5 posts on the Hive Naija community based on the weekly prompts we put out and then on the last Wednesday of teh month we'll give out prizes to the overall best posts of the month.
The Hive Naija Community is striving to highlight a lot of valuable content posted by not only Nigerians but all members of the community. This is a means of creating exposure as well as rewarding authors for their effort in putting out great content.
While we currently don't have many posts for the current prompt, we want to highlight some amazing projects by Nigerians on Hive that have brought a lot of attention to the Nigerian Community.
Hive Naija Weekend Engagement by @Samostically
Where Should I Start From?
5 days ago,I embarked on a wild adventure to find all my brothers and sisters(Nigerians);here on hive,I started with a Call to Action Post , After 2 hours of posting, guess what happened?!
We had Over 100 comments on the post!
Awesome right! It was sweet and cute! The activity on the post increased Sotey @Hivebuzz had to step in and drop a badge hahahaha.
@samostically has had this initiative running for 2 months now and it has generated some substantial traffic on the community.
Newbie Initiative Application Now Open by @newbies-hive
Let us tell you a bit about it
This is a program to train new users/accounts so they can have a better understanding of the capabilities of the Hive Blockchain as well as those who have not been able to develop well enough so far.
@starstrings01 was one of the masterminds behind this initiative and it has become such a huge deal on Hive and we can't help but commend his activities.
5 Hive Questions with Samostically by @samostically
I started the show titled "5 Hive Questions With Samostically" in November and I wanted to be more than just a regular blogger,I wanted to explore the Blockchain, have fun and also learn from others,that is how the idea came from. I decided to start with people above 65+ reputation or 3 years active experience on the Blockchain.
@samostically also began this amazing initiative last year and is currently on his 7th episode.
Let's Talk About Sex by @young-boss-karin and @samostically
I and @samostically came up with the idea of a show where we talk about sex and sexually related situations. In this show, we will be discussing our sexual experiences and bringing in guests to talk on sexually related topics that will be both educational and fun for the general public.
@young-boss-karin and @samostically recently began this podcast and although it's still in its beginning phase, it has shown to have a lot of potentials.
This is just our way of recognising our own and if there are projects by Nigerians that have not been mentioned, do well to keep us informed about them and they will be mentioned in the next newsletter.

I’m new here on ecency and I’m glad to see that an amazing community like this exist
Regarding the lagos meetup. A lot of people showed interest but never filled the form which was crucial. Maybe we can schedule something later in the year for lagos. I will figure that out with @blezyn
About posting in hivenaija. We are not about upvotes (I speak for myself). For those who want huge upvotes, maybe they can post elsewhere. My focus is on engagement, building a stronger community, and helping newbies from Nigeria navigate the platform. I believe if we get these things right, the upvotes will come.
Nevertheless, we support authors who post in our community. It might not be huge but it's something. Please if you are solely motivated by rewards, hive naija might not be the community for you. This is my personal opinion as one of the moderators.
Hello, @nonsowrites I do appreciate the work you are doing for @hive-naija. Regarding the reward you mentioned above, how about we have a curation account for hive Naija, that can reward those Authors posting quality content into our community, or do we already have such? Am sure some people will love to support our cause by delegating some hp.
Wow... I had no idea a community like this was here.
I will try to be more active from now on.
Thank you to the admins for all you do here.
