If you missed our charity visit last year, you can read more on it here



Naijapals will become a year older in few weeks time and in line with our philosophy and vision of loving and caring one another, we are planning on marking our fifth year in existence by helping out the less privileged in our society.

Last year, we had a great time with some of the less privileged children in Lagos, when we visited the charities that were taking care of them, it was a rewarding experience for the members who sacrificed their time to join us on the charity visit.

Due to the major success we achieved last year and the smile and joy we saw on the children's faces we have decided to expand this year's charity visit to 2 more states, so we shall be helping out the less privileged in:

- Lagos State
- Port Harcourt
- Ibadan



If you live in any of the above listed State/Cities and would like to be part of the Naijapals train for any of the visits, please indicate by replying this thread and the state you would like to be involved in, we also welcome suggestions on orphanages we can visit in these cities

The suggested date for this visit is 21st of July 2012, we would try to manage this date around the availability of members for the visit.

Remember, you can only change the world one step at a time, this is totally voluntary and it is surly an opportunity for you to positively influence someone's life!!!

Pls Note:  Contact divineproject for the Lagos visit and Sophiebaby for the Port-Harcourt visit.
We shall keep you posted for more info.

Votes are in and gates are closed, Naijapals would like to congratulate divineproject as a well deserved winner of the Naijapals personality of the year awards!

http://www.naijapals.com/divineproject

She has won this contest by displaying a sheer amount of wisdom and maturity in approaching discussions on Naijapals; leaving top quality posts which was loved by the majority and a laudible sense of humour

Congratulations once more, this was well deserved.

Short interview with Divineproject

When did you join Naijapals?
I joined Naijapals in May 2008



How did you discover Naijapals?:
I got several mails from friends asking me to join. I didnt join immediately I got those mails, I ignored the request for a long time until I got tired of receiving such mails and then I registered.



Divineproject, such a nice and odd name, how did you come about that?:
I was on my way to a place in 2004 and I saw a sticker on a car that was in front of mine. It said ' I AM A DIVINE PROJECT', immediately it struck me that the sticker was talking to me. I reflected on my life so far and I had no reason other than to believe I am a DIVINE PROJECT. That I am still alife today is because the Divine one has a hand on it, He has some work for me. Besides, everyone is a project, it all depends on which of them you are.


If you were to become a Naijapals member again (say in the next life), what name will you chose?:
I will remain a DIVINEPROJECT.


Why did you come back to Naijapals after your first visit?:
I got hooked in the confession room and that was my mainstay until I found another love here - the forum! I still go to the confession room, but I think we need some adjustment there.


Is Naijapals one for your favorite websites?:
Naijapals is my favourite website, it has no rival as far as am concerned.


How many pals do you have on Naijapals?:

Wow, I have over 250 pals presently and I get new request(s) on a daily basis.


Who are your favorite pals on Naijapals?:
I wont like to mention names please, I love all my pals, even those not on my list but who are known to be good ambassadors of Nigeria and of this great site are all loved by Divineproject.


What does a typical "divineproject" visit to Naijapals looks? where do you start and where do you end off?:
Well, most of last year, you would mostly find me in the confession room. In the first quarter of this year, I was mostly there too, although I visited other arms of this site like the fight park and forum. But lately I stay more in the forum than any other place.


Have you ever made a confession on Naijapals?: Yes I have


Do you mind sharing or you want some privacy on that?:

Of course confessions are supposed to be private, so I dont think I want to spill. Besides I have forgotten what it was all about since it has been long.



Coming to publishing (commenting), what inspires you to make a comment or contribution to a topic, confession or fight?:
The need to help someone. I like to put myself in the person's shoes and try to feel like that person. But then the type of comment made would depend on how serious or otherwise I think the person is.


Have you ever started a debate on the fight park?:
Yes I have


Who do you think is the naughtiest person on (your) Naijapals network?:

Sophiebaby and if you allow me to chose a second person, I would say Waco.


Personality of the year award, You had several nominations how come you didn't nominate yourself for the award?:

I never got used to bringing myself out when it comes to such. I am really leadership shy but I sure can lead if you entrust me with it.


Winning with majority votes means you are popular in the community, how do you feel being popular?:
Really, I have gotten used to that a long time ago, especially in the confession room. But I would say that I dont feel any different from how I felt when I wasnt known.



Who is the coolest person on (your) Naijapals network?:
I have so many cool persons but I will go for Yemochi.


Describe Naijapals in a short sentence?:
A truly Nigerian site


Would you recommend Naijapals to your friends?:
Oh yes I will anytime, any day.



What is the craziest post you ever commented on?:
I really cant remember.



Alot of people complain about attitudes and temperament on Naijapals, have you ever had this problem (beef) with any one?:
Yes I have, but I didnt let it get out of hand, I just hit the 'ignore' button inside my head.



If someone gives you a bad attitude, does it affect you mentally?:

No, it doesnt. I delete all of that from my head as soon as I log off. No time to bother my pretty head over someone I have never met before.



Some of your topics have made it to the front page, how does this make you feel?:


I feel good and challenged to think up something better.


If you had the power to change one thing on Naijapals, what will that be?:
(laughing) I need power to change more than one thing ooo. If I have the power, I will make sure people dont get to download other people's pictures without their consent. And if you allow me, I will block anyone that is insult-personified.



Lastly, Any words of advices to all your friends (and enemies) on Naijapals?:
I dont have any known enemy on this site and for all my friends, try and make someone's life sweet today. And like I would say, a little help here, a little help there, makes the world go round. Thanks to all of you for making this happen, I love you all!

===============================================================

As the winner of the award, divineproject as recieved her gift - which is a 3rd gen Apple Ipod touch, with her name "divineproject" engraved on the crystal back.

We hope to introduce a bigger and better gift for next year edition of the NPYA
