First of all, INTRODUCTION.
You may call me a Pastor, either because my dad is a pastor or because i put up spiritual posts always and preach too.
“Second of all”, GO DOWN LOW(er)
Some see me as a leader and a mentor, though i could still be a TORmentor, yeah you read that right, Tested, Original, Responsible mentor (TORmentor). Lol
I found out there is a difference between a leader and a ruler, and being in a position where people follow your lead because they feel you are worth following is an honour and a huge responsibility. School, fellowship, National service year brought that upon me and it was beautiful.
Ahh, as a writer and a speaker
If it can be imagined, it can be put down in words. Turning mental pictures into scripts that is sure, call it scriptures. Which i see as the skillful expression of words and life happenings coupled with humour into written words.
Phew, i could keep going on and on with the analogy, but that would be so long, so i’m here, and we can get to know more ourselves.
So for starters, My name is ‘Benny Walker’, my brand name. Forget the name, I am proudly African, 100% Nigerian, in fact, my name is Benjamin Onyemaechi, from Imo state, Nigeria.
How did i find out about steem?
I have been a writer for a long while now, just for fun, because i do love it and people do love my posts. People began to ask when would i write a book or begin to publish online and make more impact. Then, a friend introduced me to Steemit in march, i signed up but didn't take it serious, but last week after a football game, @donnest, a mutual friend on facebook who i’ve never talked to before and that day in the most amazing way said he knows me and reads my posts always, then he talked about Steemit and the clarity in his explanation was top notch, so hence my involvement. He mentioned the contribution of @surpassinggoogle to the establishment of newbies through his programs such as the #ulogs initiative which encourages people to blog about their daily experiences. I actually find it very interesting and would also want to be part of it. He also intimated me about his community @Steemjet with important persons like @uche-nna, @jesse12, @lordjames, @empato365, @mbj, and @deandaniel whose efforts are basically about the adoption of Steem as a globally accepted cryptocurrency.
So what would i be doing?
Writing of course, and i’d be writing about everything, inspirational, motivational, football, spirituality, relationship etc.. Also, i’d want to meet people who are on this platform obviously better than me, so as to become better.
Finally, for me, everything is a tool for me to affect lives, be it writing, talking, football, leadership etc. So with Steemit, i can connect young people with their gifts and make them see how the skills they have can make them earn and grow better instead by being preoccupied with all manner of social vices ranging from cultism, armed robbery, prostitution etc.
Phew, i hope i didn't bore you?
Lets hook up, comment and we’d get to know each other more.
