| Author | Post | Link |
|---|---|---|
| @ellizy | At the beginning of the struggle, her intention was to make the colonial government see reasons not to over tax the market women but she was not given a listening ear either at the colonial government office or at the palace of the king of Egba land so she had to resort to protest. Her courage earned her the title the Lioness of Lisabi(Ekun Omo Lisabi). | HN&-WK116: The Lioness of Lisabi. |
| @bipolar95 | In that moment I looked at my daughter who was by my mom, I also went to the standing mirror in my room and stared at my reflection. The thought that I wouldn't have been in existence as well as my daughter unsettled me. | A New Dawn. |
| @treasuree | Music and arts are also areas that give me hope, nigerian musicians are taking the world stage, burna Boy, Wizkid, Davido, Tems , their names are everywhere, and the writers too, from Chimamanda Adichie to other newer voices, are still making us proud, these things show that even in the middle of our struggles, Nigeria has talent that cannot be hidden. | Nigeria @65 Independence. : My Reflection. |
Congratulations to our winners. The distribution is 50 Hive, 30 Hive and 20 Hive respectively.
