"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world" - Nelson Mandela
Hello everyone, my beautiful hive naija people, it's another beautiful weekend and we are so happy to have you here once again. It’s nice to get everyone together every weekend to talk about random things and just have fun.
OBJECTIVE
As we all know, the Hive Naija Weekend Engagement is focused on promoting the togetherness of the Nigeria brethren through engagement and it's also now concerned of the well being of each and everyone who is part of the engagement. This account was opened to make the engagement more personal and officia. You can find the INTRODUCTION POST to read more about the purpose and aim of this new account and also do well to follow the account so as to know when a post is made.
A long time ago, I thought, I shared and I asked "Why don't we chat on hive every Weekend?"
And you all said... YES
"Well, we won't be the first as there are some weekend engagement trends already on Hive! But this would be THE NIGERIAN VERSION!"
The last time, the topic was ”WE ARE BACK"
We had over 600+ comments in our last weekend engagement. It’s a good start, and we hope it gets better from here. Let’s see if we can still make 1000 comments possible this weekend, shall we? 👀. It has always been so nice seeing people who dedicate their time to engaging and sharing their thoughts and ideas with us, I want to appreciate you all for the consistency, quality engagement and your efforts, let's keep them coming. Special thanks to everyone who makes this hang out possible.
I will drop a topic every Friday (Today's topic is below), share your thoughts on the matter, reply to someone else opinion, and interrogate the opinion if you like. Keep the discussion on. If you don't have anything to say about the topic. Just reply to someone else's comment.
Do all these in the comment section, as that is where it all goes down.
This week's engagement starts immediately after you see this post and ends on Sunday at 11:59 pm.

BOOKS
Now to our discussion for this weekend! We will be discussing about “books”. As we all know, knowledge is power, so we want to know what you are reading to improve your knowledge about different things. Any book (even the Bible or Koran).
- "What are you reading now?"
- What have you recently read. Tell us the title and why you read that book
***Remember, the aim of the hangout is to bring Nigerians together so make sure you have this in mind when responding to the questions. And feel free to add even more to it if you have any.
In the spirit of implementing some suggestions, from previous weeks, our winner will choose the topic for discussion and will also be the one to choose the winners. All you have to do is suggest the topic during the week and also the winners in the comment and tag @hopestylist to it. To our topic choosers, they will receive 10% of the hangout post they suggested the topics. (We didn’t get any suggestions this week).
Okay Let's Gist!!!!
Be as simple and sincere with the discussion, hehehe.
Don't you think we are forgetting somebody?... Well, I'm sure we are...
Oh yes before I forget, the winners will be chosen based on the number of new members they invite to join the engagement. You know what you benefit when you engage so why not let others know about it. In fact I will advise you look beyond the prize and look more to doing something different even for your Naija brethren by showing them the way here.
There are no further rules, please banter as you like, speak any Nigerian language (Igbo, Yoruba, pidgin, Efik), anything, as long as someone else can understand.
With all that said, let the discussion begin....
