On Sunday I made a presentation on Steemit to group of professionals and business people.
The meet-up was put together by @edwoltzhairline. She is a very influential woman and I was really encouraged by the faith she had in Steemit. She is on Steemit but she hasn't really started blogging yet. She put the people together and I was simply invited to give them a talk on the importance of joining Steemit and introduce them to the platform.
The presentation was supposed to last for just one hour but it spanned two and half hours and by the end of it, there where still so many things to talk about.
So many of them asked me how to get started and I joyfully showed them how and referred them to a mobile phone tutorial series I had created in YouTube. The mobile phone tutorial series is a screencast tutorial and it can get anyone started on Steemit.
In attendance were about 20people.
A couple that attended the event- Mr and Mrs Ogbonnaya Invited me to their house for a dinner the next day and we had a lot of jolly good time discussing block chain, cryptocurrencies and Steemit.
The couple has now registered on Steemit with the following usernames @thelovejunkie (Mrs Ogbonnaya) and
@restandreign(Mr Ogbonnaya).
Below is a video of the first part of the presentation.

I plan to do more presentations like this in the future and share this lovely platform with everyone I can share it with. The Steemit community in Ibadan is growing gradually. We have plans to do a meet-up and a marketing campaign in the University of Ibadan. But those are just plans. There is no definite structure yet.
I want to say a big thank you to an awesome Steemit boss @ejemai, the boss of @stach. This guy is an exemplary Nigerian leader that he really inspires me with the work he is doing in Port-Harcourt decentralising the offline. Thanks for the moral support sir.
