If we take a trip down memory lane, there was a time
Nigeria board was requested for on this forum, but due to one reasons or the other, we were not given local board. It would be as a result of some reasons, best known to theymos, but of which the reasons will be genuine.
CryptopreneurBrainboss created a local thread,
Africa Bitcointalk Community Hangout., where some of us do have some discussions related to bitcoin, other cryptocurrencies and our country. Later, we noticed all of us there are Nigerians, we finally have to discuss about it, and CryptopreneurBrainboss changed it to
Nigerian Bitcointalk Community Hangout.. Two languages are accepted on the thread, English and Pidgin.
The thread surfaced to be for Nigerians and we are happy for that as the evolution of Nigeria local board on bitcointalk is dawning to become reality. That is why we are making a request for theymos to grant our request and give us Nigerians a local board.
There are many reasons we Nigerians need local board1. Like the Brainboss exchange service, some new Nigerians may not know there is anything like that, but moving it to our local board will make it more easy to be seen and known. Not only Brainboss service, there will be some Nigerians that will like to provide service for people in Naira (the Nigeria fiat).
2. There was a day I wanted to convert litecoin to Naira, I have to call a member on this forum that did it for me, requesting such directly from our local baord would have been the best which will make such transactions transparent in case by making such offer on our local baord.
3. Our government just banned cryptocurrencies, but we know it is going to be legalized back, our local board is a place to easily find latest information that will be posted by our members about how to exchange Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies to Naira during this hard time. The way we can still make trades in Bitcoin, in other cryptocurrencies and in naira will be easily discussed on our local board.
Nigerians have many active users on this forum, only what we need is for us to be given a local board, we active users are ready to develop the board. Please, we need support from other members about this to help us leave positive comments which are true about us Nigerians to convince theymos into giving us a local board.

January, 2021 overview of the local boards activity by Rikafip
I completely agree with the appeal for Nigerians to be given a local board not just because am one.
But as we here all know Nigeria is the giant of Africa and we are fast adopting the world's most popular cryptocurrency (Bitcoin). And with this we are setting a path for other African countries.
And having a local board will really help the New comers from Nigeria too, speaking in the language the really understand
