Hive-Naija Weekend Engagement- What is the Next Step?

”Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much-“ Helen Keller

Hello everyone, my beautiful Hive Naija people. After a very long unplanned break, we got back into the game with our usual weekend engagement. Every weekend, we come together to discuss interesting topics, vibe, and have fun. The main objective of the Hive Naija Weekend Engagement is to promote togetherness of the Nigerian brethren through engagement. We aim to create a safe space where you can rant about literally anything, banter with friends as much as you want, have fun and take your mind off things that are troubling you.

It has been four weeks since we brought back this hangout and in these four weeks, we have had a whole bunch of fun. We have talked about our childhood myth, favorite frontends, favorite childhood rhythm and more interesting topics. NOW, WHAT IS THE NEXT STEP? The goal is to make the Hive Naija Weekend Engagement even better, but to do this we need to work together. To make our dream work and build a strong community for Nigerians, you need to voice out your opinions. Why? Because you are a Nigerian and your opinions will go a long way.

Together, let’s make the Hive Naija Weekend Engagement even better! This is a call for your suggestions.

A CALL FOR YOUR SUGGESTIONS

  • What do you think about the Hive Naija Weekend Engagement?
  • What activities would you like to introduce?
  • In your opinion, how can we make the Weekend Engagement better and more interesting?

Recently, we thought about something interesting and we decided to share it with everyone so we know what you think. The Engagement runs from Friday to Sunday, so how about we give each day a fun theme? Aside our weekly topic, we could also add this to make conversations better and sweeter than your relationship.😂😂

FRIDAY PLANS

Friday is the start of the weekend. After a long day at work or school, the weekend is a time to relax and enjoy. How about we come together on Fridays and talk about our plans for the weekend? Do you plan to go on a date with your partner? Or are you a single Pringle and do you plan to spend the weekend watching movies or taking yourself out to a nice place? Even better! Bring am come. Share with us!

OWANBE SATURDAY

Saturdays are for Owanbe/parties. Come and share your party plans with us! To make it even better, you could add a picture of you looking good in your gele or native wear. Do you remember a past party that you will never forget due to funny reasons? Share with us!

SUNDAY REFLECTIONS

On Sundays, we are wrapping up the weekend’s enjoyment. While some people go to church, others stay home and enjoy or make plans for the new week. Sunday is for us to reflect!

We will make changes as we proceed. We could change the activities for each day.

Remember that your opinions matter a lot. So, is there anything you’d love to add or subtract? Remember, your opinions matter. Without you, there will be no Hive Naija Weekend Engagement.

Drop your ideas in the comments! We will listen and take note of them!

Honestly, it’s nice to have the hive naija weekend engagement back on track, it’s being a while though. It would have been much more interesting if it came back earlier but then it’s all good.

Talking about what to improve and how to go about it. Hmmmm i think we still need more people on this hangout, just like in the past. I remember someone suggested playing games back then, I can’t really recall the type of game though but then I think this needs to be walked on properly. For now i think we are good to go, things will change gradually and that’s for sure…

I'm definitely sticking with the Friday plans because this adulthood life isn't easy. It's a great idea, a place and time where we could unwind and relax, meet and flow with people even though it's online.

As for the owambe I have nothing to say, because I hardly go to parties unless I'm threatened to attend 😂

I've not really participated in the weekend engagement of recent, but I use to participate in it in the past.

I feel the weekend engagement initiative is already a great one, right now the best thing is to keep things running, but maybe a little tweak will be to make to give prizes to those who can make a total of a certain number of comments... For example 5 hive for the first person that gives 10 meaningful comments while engaging with others in the comments section. This would make it commenting more competitive I think

Thanks for your response. The thing now is we can support better than ever. As we have a trail that can vote on posts. I don't know what better reward can beat that. The hive tokens are just little and just to encourage everyone

Wow...just wow🤭🥳

I must commend the brainsssss behind this precious ideas here

I am thinking loud but forgive this nkem 😌

The 3 categories of our weekend engagement sounds fun already ...like I can even plagiarise one owambe style from our naija lady and sew the style for myself 😃😃...sounds amazing..lol

But then, I am thinking of a way to get everyone carried along ...if Friday is to talk about our plans for the weekend and Saturday , owambe ...are we going to have a separate post each day or all will be done under the announcement post on Friday ?
I feel to carry everyone along , a tag is necessary and indicating the theme for that day...that's y I am thinking if everything should be done in same post?

Having said that, we can play games during the weekend too, let's say Friday Game night in our Discord Server where we all join voice, for max. of an hour and we are done !

All these will strengthen the hive naija bond that we once shared, supporting each other and growing better on the hive blockchain 💖.

Hi, Mama. No, we won’t be publishing separate posts for each day. What we plan to do is include the themes in the post, then on each day, we would make a comment, reminding people about it. The plan is to tag a few active people in that comment, then others can keep on tagging other people.

Something like this: on Friday morning/afternoon, we would post a comment: “Hello, everyone. Today is for Friday plans. Come and share…” (tagsomeone tagsomeone tagsomeone)

Then the next person who drops a comment will also tag their friends.

What do you think about this, Mama? It is not perfect yet, but we’ll keep working on it till we get it right.

Great initiatives so far. I have enjoyed the weekend hangout lately and the engagement ma has been very crazy and really engaging. I love all the fun ideas we have had to share . Well, I don’t have much to say but to agree with the prompts that have been brought out for the discussions for the weekend. For someone like me, a single Pringle, my weekends funny is even busier than week days. Having these topics to talk about would be a great way ease some work tensions through tithe busy weekend. Let’s dig in. And they could be spiced ones in a while to avoid monotony
