Application For Country Representative Of Nigeria By @jueco

Dear @steemitblog,

With a heart filled with joy i humbly tender my application to be considered to serve as a country representative for my country, Nigeria.

I actually thought I had lost all hope and had to wait for when next there will be a need, but the Almighty has His ways of working things out.

I am making this application in respect to the consideration the steemit team had on many of us that couldn't submit our application due to the deadline and I appreciate and thank the steemit team for this tender compassion.

Ever since I became conversant with the operation of steemit, it has always been my goal to serve my country by being a country representative.

In one of my quality post highlighting my goals on steemit, I made mention of my sole desire to become a country representative, here's the post link, and due to its quality, it was nominated as top 7 quality post for the week.

BEING ACTIVE FOR AT LEAST 3MONTHS

Link

I am happy to say that ever since the 15th of April 2021 when I joined steemit, I have been active on this platform.

There's no week that passed by without me making at least 2 to 3 quality post on steemit.

And I still strive to make more quality posts, little wonder why I have been nominated severally to receive extra support from steemcurator01.

OWN AT LEAST 1000SP (NOT DELEGATED) AND A REPUTATION OF 60 ABOVE

As shown above, I have a total steem power of 3830 and I am impressed with myself that despite the bear market and the low sbd printing, I have been able to build up to that steem power.

I still have the initial target of becoming a dolphin, then I can aim higher.
I have ensured to work very hard every week by making outstanding post, hereby giving me an upper edge to be nominated as top 7 by the community curators

Also shown above is my reputation on steemit, i have a reputation of 68.287, and reputation as we know it can only grow with constant upvotes from reputable users.

LIVING PERMANENTLY IN THE COUNTRY THEY WANT TO BE COUNTRY REP FOR

Ever since I was born, I have always resided in Nigeria, I have never toured outside the country and I have no plans of leaving Nigeria for now.

I have visited different states within the country, I have been to the eastern part of Nigeria, I have been southern part of Nigeria and I have been to the western part of Nigeria.

The only zone of Nigeria I haven't been to is the northern part of Nigeria and this is because of its high rate of killings.

I currently reside in the western part of Nigeria, Ogunstate to be precise but I am from the eastern part of Nigeria, (Abia state).

BE FLUENT IN THE MAIN LANGUAGE OF THE COUNTRY THEY WANT TO BE A COUNTRY REP FOR

My country Nigeria has 3major languages with one official language.
The 3 languages are Igbo, hausa and yoruba, and because we were colonised by Britain, we adopted English language and it became our official language.

Here in Nigeria, a larger population of us understands English language and since I do also, it will be very easy communicating and helping my fellow Nigerian.

I can fluently speak English and Yoruba language and this is so because I grew up in the western part of Nigeria.

HAVE A CSI AND VOTING PATTERN THAT CLEARLY DEMONSTRATES THAT THEY ARE ALREADY SUPPORTING OTHER STEEMIANS IN THE COUNTRY THEY WANT TO BE A COUNTRY REP FOR.

Having a high voting csi is very necessary to proof that as a steemian, you are supporting other steemian.

To show the Importance of voting csi, the 7up team took it upon themselves to ensure that they only curate those with a considerable voting csi.

It is so unreasonable to expect support from the curators when we ourselves are not giving such support.

As a steemian, I make sure that I am generous with upvotes, I upvote articles that are worth being upvoted.

As shown above, I have a considerable voting csi of 39.1 and in the last seven days, I have distributed 329 upvotes to 216 accounts.

COUNTRY REPS MUST ALSO NOT HAVE RECENTLY POWERED DOWN AND THEY SHOULD ACTIVELY SUPPORT THE #CLUB SYSTEM.

Ever since I joined steemit I can proudly say I have never initiated a powerdown nor thought of initiating power down.

I some much love the idea of building steempower and if not for the situation of the economy, I would have been a proud member of club100.

Below is my club status as at when this post was made.

As seen above, I am a member of #club75 and it gladdens my heart to be one.

YOU SHOULD ALSO SAY, IN NO MORE THAN 200 WORDS, WHY YOU THINK YOU WOULD MAKE A GOOD COUNTRY REPRESENTATIVE.

• I FIND DELIGHT TO PROVIDING ASSISTANCE:

One reason I feel I qualify for the post of a country representative is because I find joy in providing assistance to users that is in needs.

One experience out of many was that of @anyiglobal, he wasn't eligible for votes because he was out of club5050.
Then he came to me for help of which I gladly provided the help I could, I assisted him with a little steems so he could be a member of the club again.

CONCLUSION

I am very happy to be given the chance to tender my application to be a country representative.

As the popular saying goes,

"A book cannot be judged by it's cover page" and "you wouldn't know how dip a water is until you have inserted your leg into it"

I feel one of the way my competency can be tested is if I am given the opportunity to serve.
And if I am, I promise to give my very best to steemit.

Thank you again, steemit team, for this wonderful opportunity.
