Indonesian youth rally nationwide over rising living costs, economic concerns, and controversial government policies.

We just had a lengthy discussion with a respected elder brother from Northern Nigeria who lives in the diaspora about the surge in insecurity across the region.
He raised a very important point, asking that beyond lamentation, what can we do, within the law, to help curb the situation?
He observed that whenever such incidents occur, we express our frustrations for a few days and then move on. In contrast, he cited the recent Ibadan incident and highlighted how their influencers and the community leaders responded with concrete actions, which ultimately produced the desired results.
He suggested a number of ideas, including peaceful protests, policy briefs, and other forms of civic engagement.
I promised him that I would bring the issue to the public so that we can gather contributions and ideas on how to move forward.
So, what do you think we, as a people, both at home and in the diaspora, can do to contribute to addressing the problem of insecurity in Arewa?

Umar ibn Khattab رضي الله عنه said
"Do not speak about that which does not concern you, Know your enemy and be wary of your friend except for the trustworthy one. No one is trustworthy, except for the person who fears Allāh.
Do not walk with the evildoer, lest he teaches you some of his wickedness; and do not reveal your secrets to him, and When you consult others in your affairs, consult only those who fear Allāh."
