Hi am a newbie,can anybody tell me how to create a segwit wallet because I see all the members in the campaigns talk about it.

Your use determines which type of wallet you can use. "What do you want to do with your Bitcoin?" generally:
1. If you want to contribute to Bitcoin network you can download Bitcoin Core: 0.16.0 it supports native segwit addresses "lowest fee" [Not recommended].
2. For medium payments, you can use electrum.
3. fast and easy way to get segwit wallet is greenaddress you can download it from chrome web store [2.87 MB]
4. For large/big payments, you can use trezor

I disagree with your point of view that the Bitcoin Core is not to be recommended, for two main reasons:

a) it is the one and only official wallet. All the other wallets are third-party developers. And for as much as everyone says that they are trustworthy I'd rather go straight to the official developers.

b) using the parameter "prune=550" in the configuration you don't even have to download the entire blockchain!

Why would you not recommend it then?
