AFRICA ARISE! 2018

Please watch above video now

How I met @chiama



purple head dress.jpeg

After introducing myself to @ackza because I felt he is brilliant and very creative, and close by in the US, I visited him in San Diego. We hit it off quickly and he had been telling me for some time of his work with @mcsamm and others in Ghana. He also mentioned there was much happening in Nigeria as well, and encouraged me to start supporting his work in Africa. He mentioned I might find people to help me there, since many needed work and were so literate and spoke english and very excited about working in social media and crypto.

After seeing posts about @steemcamp and similar meetups in Nigeria, I was so intrigued because I came to realize THEY understand how to spread the gospel. It was almost like they were meeting up after church. And I soon realized it’s worth it for whales to pay for advertising or at least start promoting Steemit and STEEM outside of the community.

I asked her if she had seen the @teamhumble Christmas 2017 video. She had not..

I mentioned I thought we might try something similar together; but I needed a script. I asked a few people about it, just sort of off hand, as the day went by.. and 2 days later there was a script in our chat session. WOW!

She just took off and did it, right when I suggested it?!

She wrote the script, we did some editing, added a few lines to add more clarity of the power we are speaking of, and we sourced for entries from active Steemians.

MEET THE DAO



The @teamhumble article on DAO really made an impact on me, because it started me thinking about Decentralized Autonomous Organizations. They are very powerful and they are P2P, and it's incredible what can be accomplished with very small budgets and very good communications and networking!

I read about DAO, and how much of the production could be handed to others and the whole thing could be crowdsourced, which keeps expenses very low but has the potential to be even better than paid actors that know nothing about the subject matter.

I quote @chiama: "I and the rest of the @wafrica team would like to thank all those you made this dream become a reality. We are moving forward to break and overcome more boundaries and achieve greater things."

Hello @surfyogi

We in Africa appreciate the much you and your likes have been doing in support of what we do here.

I thank all participants who sent in their entries.

I really don't understand the quoted passage. Please entry on what? Was there opening for some special scheme run by you? Are you referring to DAO? If you're, what's it all about? Will you oblige me with the link to the original post?

Thanks in anticipation of your response.

@eurogee of @euronation community

Each person listed sent us a video of them speaking a line of this video.
We made a spreadsheet and each person got a line of the script.

Okay. Let me check it out.

Just finished watching the video! Can't believe it. So amazing! Kudos to @chiama and you and all those that participated. Steem is in fact our crypto messiah!

RESTEEMED

@surfyogi sir pls help me. I have use only one account but mango-2 reply this message.
Please sir see my transactions

This @wafrica community came into steemit like a joke to me the first day I saw their comment on my post. I never tool them serious but decided to follow them and I have been intrigued at what they are doing and gave been able to achieve. It's a great community commited to helping people grow on steemit and they deserve all the help and support they are and will be getting from prominent people like you on steemit. On behalf of all the wafric community, I say a big THANK YOU.

AFRICA ARISE 2018
Africa Arise 2018 will be hosted at the Beza Tabernacle in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia from January 24 - 28 under the theme Re-igniting the African Reformation.

As the Christian world celebrates the 500 year anniversary of the Protestant Reformation, we take some time to look at its implications for us in Africa, and lessons we can learn from it.

The call for reformation is the result of a frustration about where the past has led us. While appreciating the decisions made 500 years ago by a few brave men, we feel we are not just to celebrate their achievements, but to also address some of our own concerns about where the past has led us. In many ways, we in Africa have never had the opportunity to stop, assess our position, and chart the preferred way forward.

This year we are focusing on the need for reformation in the areas of ministry, marketplace and family, as these are key to Africa’s future. Through these, we intend to serve the church, our communities and nations, and re-ignite the African Reformation

@surfyogi is legend of steemit
its great with africa platform

thanks sir
small surprise sir as a fan

Meeting you is such a great feeling. You both keep bringing up ideas that seem so strong and realistic to our use. I love the movement of #artzone and #wafrica as it helps to bring the best in people..Imagine I just got a newbie motivated of how his artwork could by surpported by @surfyogi through the artzone contest. It is an inspiration l think Africans on steemit take. And hey thanks to the curators of #wafrica for working seriously each and everyday to ensure great success. But for @ackza he is just sweet and too good to follow.

wafrica is a creative group I really appreciate the work they are doing and how they are helping Africans grow into a huge community. am happy today in the morning I caught up with the latest posts from Wafrica so am also updated about the recent videos
Thanks surfyogi for the efforts you are rendering to us Africans

The video is amazing. The first song in the video is by Adekunle Gold I think, a fast rising Nigerian singer and songwriter under Mavins Crew.

The people of Africa have really seen the light and I will actively participate in making this light shine forth and transcend all clouds. I support @wafrica

Thanks to @chiama for production of the video and more thanks to @surfyogi for all the support. I respect you man

Steem is really spreading like a wildfire over here, all thanks to these preachers.
And thanks you @surfyogi for particularly supporting the West African Steem community. The @wafrica initiative has been a lot of help in just this short while.

you are a liar... my transaction have no issue related to it.

This is the first am seeing a white man have so much love and interest for not just Africa but Nigerians to be specific.
@surfyogi, you are a role model steemian and am very optimistic that you will be very much satisfied at what we Nigerians can do and are currently doing to spread the gospel life wide fire.

@chiama, Av never met her in person before but from a few things Av gathered about her, she is one creative steemian the world is yet to announce.

I had a slot to partake in the crowd sourced video but unfortunately i missed it due to unnecessary delay but am still happy that it's a mission accomplished in the end.

I appreciate in a special way, all Abuja Steemians who made this possible, you guys are really wonderful and am glad to be part of this family.

Wow wow wow... This has left me speechless. Big weldone @surfyogi. Awww I wish wish I was on telegram as at then. #covers-face. Weldone Jeff. All hail @wafrica

@wafrica the cool thing ever, atleast African people will come to know about steemit and will promote their art here as the above mentioned people have done, congratulations to all, keep up

The video is astonishing. The primary tune in the video is by Adekunle Gold I think, a quick rising Nigerian vocalist and lyricist under Mavins Crew.

The general population of Africa have truly observed the light and I will effectively partake in making this light sparkle forward and rise above all mists. I bolster @wafrica

This is definitely a great initiative!!!!!

Great video!

This @wafrica community came into steemit like a shaggy dog story to me the primary day I motto their expansion on my post. I not at all tool them grave but unquestionable to hunt them and I receive been intrigued at come again? they are burden and gave been proficient to achieve. It's a imposing the public commited to ration relations get bigger on steemit and they deserve the complete the help out and encourage they are and will be in receipt of from prominent population like you on steemit. On behalf of the entire the wafric community, I pronounce a lofty express gratitude YOU.

excellent post ..loving to your blog.thanks for sharing..

awesome vedio

I am mind blown right now
This is amazing.

I really want to thank @surfyogi for his support i n helping Africans. I remember when I just started steemit, I got a lot of love from steemit but now it is sohard to make 30 cents. As a matter pf fact steemit is no more a matter of quality content again. The whales don't vote no more and things have gotten really hard. I decided to create the @steem9ja which was a project meant to help and promote steemit amongst nigerian students but my fear is that most of them will loose motivation after a lot of trials without love. I have hosted a meetup in University of Port harcourt and i intend on spreading the gospel of steemmit. Thank you once more for suppporting Nigerians and Africa at large

M so proud of you @chiama
Weldone boss lady
You guyz rock!

Africa is just getting started.
Good job @chiama and @surfyogi

This is just a test drive. We are coming in with full force. Thanks to @surfyogi and @ackza for your support.

dear @surfyogi sir really great person on steemit
you are so awesome dear sir.

excellent jobs!

The West Africa team is going places....
This is really beautiful....

Thanks to the brains behind this project....

You guys did marvelously well.

Hopefully, I'll feature in the next video 😂

pretty interesting to see this thanks for sharing it :)

I'm happy to be on this project and it's a pleasure working with you sir and beautiful @chiama

Its an awesome piece of work
Welldone @surfyogi ,you are one great person.
I learnt a lot while working on the video, you made us bring out our best
Kudos to @chiama bae you are one in a million

Hello dear @surfyogi It is very important to promote steemit off the platform, however many people are given up to see that no matter how much they work they do not get votes, you have to make clear that this is not easy, but you also have to find a way to keep the person s here.
