The encouragement went on for pages and pages. I didn't realize how supportive Nairalanders could be to one another. It was a touching thing to see. ugoonuoha: UniqueGem: eunisam: InvertedHammer: UniqueGem: mobuch: Whobedatte: On the thread of the new incarnation of the contest Idumuose44: phoinix: Erection: willibounce1: fabiano09: ferdimako:^^^ I was struck by the irony of this comment. I asked him, but he assured me that he was not joking. Jchi9876:I was honored by this member in particular, who devoted his entire night for hours that day to communicating his ideas for the contest directly into my mentions so I wouldn't accidentally miss them. I regret that I wasn't able to reply to him a single time. Here are about 10% of them: Jchi9876: Jchi9876: Jchi9876: Jchi9876:He was so dedicated, he lurked in the viewing section at every stage of the contest. I'm very thankful for his enthusiastic support. Jchi9876:Unfortunately, this was the only comment he made during the contest, and made no remarks upon the concluding, though I again saw him in the viewing section when the winners were announced. 6 Likes 1 Share |

To the contestants who were frustrated by the short amount of time they were given to complete their submission because the the contest thread was only on the front page for a brief time, and to those that missed the deadline altogether, you can direct your queries to the posters mentioned above. To use their words: sunnshyn: In truth, Nigerians have a habit of not speaking out against people trying to accomplish something. We have that reputation of not insulting or criticizing or even praying for misfortune, as a few did to babyosisi in the original thread. We don't do that. We should tear each other down more often, if we want to see a better Nigeria. 5 Likes 2 Shares |
