FoF User Group Submission

Hey ​@thelma_opurum!  I’ve seen your DM on X and your support ticket (#1552676), and I also want to thank you for reaching out here on the Forum. I’ve gone ahead and contacted the relevant teams internally to help move things forward.

I’ll keep you updated as soon as I hear back from them. Thank you for your patience in the meantime! 

Thank you very much ​@Gayani_S for your response.

I’m very grateful. I’ll be on standby for a respose from the Team.

Hey ​@thelma_opurum, I’ve got updates! 
 

The team has sent a reply on 10/3 to let you know that there was an within close proximity in Osogbo so while we are unable to accommodate your request, we suggest reaching out to the leader of the group in Osogbo to see how you can get involved! You should be able to contact them here. 

Thank you for your response ​@Gayani_S  

First, I didn’t get a response.

Also, Osogbo is about 1 hour 30 minutes Journey from Ogbomoso.

Ogbosmoso on the other hand is becoming a HotSpot for Tech. Hubs are being opened here, Tech communities are being built. Also, there is a very large student community here - Ladoke Akintola Univeristy of Technology, Ogbomoso, and Federal Polytechnic Ogbomoso.

I will humbly request that you reconsider. Please.

It will be very demanding for people to travel for almost 2 hours to attend an event that can be easily held in their own community.

Getting the numbers here in Ogbomoso isn’t a problem and as an act of faith we have opened a WhatsApp community and also announced that there will be FoF Ogbomoso.

You can check out the WhatsApp community link here. 

We mean business and we really want the design commnity here to grow.

I will humbly request that you reconsider.

Hello ​@Gayani_S .

Please, I’m still on standby for a response from the team.

Thank you.

I’ve shared your message with the team so they can carefully consider your request. Once I hear back, I’ll be sure to update you right away.

Appreciate your patience in the meantime!
