Summary || Winners Of The Hive-Naija Engagement #3

When two brothers are busy fighting, an evil man can easily attack and rob their poor mother. Mankind should always stay united, standing shoulder to shoulder so evil can never cheat and divide them.

Summary Of The Weekend Engagement

The 3rd hive-naija weekend engagement kicked off on friday(Dec 17,2021) and ended on Saturday(Dec 18,2021) 11:59pm (GMT+1). I was happy to read interesting contributions to the Christmas themed topic. We had some new names join us too.

The topic was "CHRISTMAS TRADITIONS IN NIGERIA". We talked about our Christmas experiences. Although we live in the same country, we still practice diverse rituals during the festive period. When I got a notification from @hivebuzz, I knew we did it again! We onced again raised the flag here on hive!

From @davidbright explaining how he has always felt different during Christmas period, to @estherscott love for food, to @young-boss-karin giving us that nostalgic vibes, to @stevenson7 giving us head up of what is to come😀, to @popmanj telling us the reason for the season and many more.

I bring to you some funny and cool insights from the engagement.

@estherscott says;

Its the food for me... We eat a lot and do parties every other day of the month even new year but there is something about Christmas chicken and food.. It's always so special and exciting...
We always use to have varieties, swallow with different soup, enough meat, rice and salad
OMO it's the food for me o

@wolfofnostreet says

We'd go to church in the morning on Christmas day and I'd be dressed in the clothes my mum had bought since September that I'd be fantasising about. Everyone gets to see the Christmas hair that had been hiding under scarfs and we commend each other's looks.
As a pastor's child I usually got gifted more money than the other kids in church and that was the highlight of my Christmas. Then I'd still get more from aunties and uncles later in the day. I get nothing less than 3k and that was big money. Same every year till I was like 12 and was too big 😭

@ruthyann says

My dad loves Christmas, he's the only one in the family that takes it personal 🤣. What stood out for me was the new clothes. I remember taking my bath with my Christmas shoe and rubbing Vaseline on it,my mum beat shege comot from my body that day 😂
The Christmas dash amongst 4 other siblings was survival of the fittest so we'd race to share the food in the neighborhood especially to one Baba Chika, that man was very generous 😂
