Congratulations Well deserved

Congratulations, my sister Maryam Bukar Hassan (@Alhan_islam) on your designation as a @UN Global Advocate for Peace! Your voice carries truth and endless inspiration. As you once said: “Peace has always known a woman's name spoken in the way she chooses courage over collapse, again and again.” Proud to see a Nigerian woman lighting the path of peace.

EMBRACE THE BOUNDLESS HORIZONS OF YOUTH, WHERE DREAMS TAKE FLIGHT AND POSSIBILITIES KNOW NO LIMITS. @OloladeOgunnubi

I had a great time @myleapsin Africa Day Event where I shared what “From Voice to Impact: Driving Africa’s Development through Advocacy” meant to me as a PanAfricanist and our works at @AYLInitiative. I spoke about strategic partnerships for effective Advocacy. #LolaImpacts

Today, we honor our past and claim our future. 
Africa Day 2025 calls us to reflect, resist, and rise. 
As youth, we are not the future, we are the now. It’s our time to lead, build, and demand justice.
