If Arewa can take little actions a little bit more than we rant, I believe the change we yearn for can become a reality. But the way I see it we all prefer to live in our comfort zones & criticize & condemn ourselves instead of going into the field & doing our bit #WakeUpArewa
For a while I got tired of ranting, criticising & condemning, and I decided to watch from the side lines. But this week my passion for taking actions has been revived through some couple of meetings I had & a group I encountered yesterday that is result oriented. #WakeUpArewa
An idea is simply a thought in ur head, without acting on it it wont become reality & achieve the desired result u envisioned. Always put ur ideas to action & iterate along the way till u get it right. When we begin to do this in Arewa then our future will be bright #WakeUpArewa
Acting on ur ideas to liberate the North from the shackles of underdevelopment isn't enough, u also need to ve partners that can help u actualize them, people that share ur passion to see a prosperous Arewa, people who can work with u in the field to achieve ur goals #WakeUpArewa
Another important thing to note is that dont take the whole problems of Arewa to start with, it can be overwhelming & will be too much for u to handle. Take 1 issue & start within a community not even a ward. Work with that community & see what results u can achieve #WakeUpArewa
By starting with a single community, you can perfect your action plan, see what works and what doesn't, identify the right partners to work with, and ensure that the actions you're taking are impacting the community positively, then you can scale it up & expand #WakeUpArewa.
Let this #WakeUpArewa be a call to action, let us embrace doing more instead of talking more. Get out of ur comfort zone today, go out in the field, implement all those ideas that you ve & see if Arewa wont rise again. You build nations by doing, you dont build them by ranting.
When you point an accusing finger, the rest are pointing towards you. Be less interested in what others are doing right or wrong, and pay more attention to what it is that you're doing. This is what Arewa needs, more of soul searching rather than shaming & dragging. #WakeUpArewa 
Indeed #IAMNorth, I believe our greatness is bigger than our continent not just our country, I equally believe we are not doomed, that we can unleash our potentials, but only if we begin to act now, and delivering on results. The day we begin this, is the day we will #WakeUpArewa
Today, we want to hear from u what we can do in the North to create jobs. Share ur ideas using the #WakeUpArewa hashtag. This ideas will be compiled, streamlined & documented for implementation soon. I beg you not to dwell on the problems, but to add ways Arewa can create JOBS.
