The halls of the illustrious National Merit Award House, Maitama, sparkled with prestige and purpose on Saturday as Habiba Musa Dogo, an emerging force in education, peacebuilding, and community development, was crowned with the distinguished title of United Nations Eminent Peace Ambassador.

The occasion—organized by the Advanced Peace and Reconciliation Centre of Nigeria in collaboration with International Peace Advocate and the Institute of Security and Forensic Studies, Nigeria—drew together eminent personalities, diplomats, academics, and thought leaders who witnessed history being made.

As the spotlight settled on her, Amb. Habiba Musa Dogo stood not just as an award recipient but as a radiant symbol of youthful resilience, feminine excellence, and transformative leadership.

A Queen in the Garden of Service

Born in Azare, Bauchi State, and nurtured in the spirit of discipline and purpose, Habiba Musa Dogo’s story reads like a tapestry of determination. A graduate of Physics Education from the University of Maiduguri, she has never confined herself to classrooms or theories. Instead, she has emerged as a queenly figure whose crown is not ornamental but forged through service, sacrifice, and visionary action.

Currently serving as the Jigawa State Program Officer of Kinpeak Holdings and Founder of Habiba Educational Consultancy Enterprise, she has blended professional discipline with a passion for educational reform and student mentorship. Her personal brand statement — “Empowering students to achieve academic excellence through community development projects, educational awareness, and personalized counseling” — is no empty slogan but a life lived in action.

During her National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) year in Sokoto State, Amb. Dogo left an indelible imprint by executing four landmark community projects across six schools, touching lives and leaving behind legacies. From establishing a Physics and multipurpose laboratory to donating learning materials, from advocating menstrual hygiene with dignity kits to pioneering skill acquisition programs in science and technology, she wove hope into the daily lives of young students.

Her efforts earned her not just applause but decorations of honor, including the NYSC Governing Board Sokoto State Honours Award (2025) and the NYSC CDS Education Development Group Award. These recognitions crowned her as a youth leader whose brilliance does not dim in the shadows of challenge but shines all the brighter.

Her Eminent Amb. Dogo’s growing laurels stand as testaments to her expanding influence. With a Leadership Award from the Muslim Corpers’ Association of Nigeria (2025), certifications in Entrepreneurship Development, Teaching Practice, and Computer Operations, and a portfolio of community-focused initiatives, she has built a reputation as a trailblazer for women in education and youth empowerment.

Every certificate, every honor, every recognition is more than an achievement—it is a jewel in the crown of a young queen shaping Nigeria’s destiny.

Speaking at the high-profile ceremony, Amb. Dogo’s voice rang with grace, vision, and conviction.

“This award is not just for me—it is for every young girl who dreams of contributing to society, every student striving for excellence, and every community that believes in education as a tool for peace,” she declared, her words drawing sustained applause from the distinguished gathering.

In that moment, she was not simply a recipient but a torchbearer of hope, carrying the aspirations of millions of Nigerian youths into the global conversation on peace and development.

With her gaze fixed on the horizon, Amb. Dogo is determined to expand her influence by developing mentorship programs, nurturing talents, and building sustainable platforms for the empowerment of young Nigerians. Her trajectory is not just upward—it is purposeful, regal, and inspiring.

As she stood crowned at the international stage, one truth echoed through the hall: Eminent Amb. Habiba Musa Dogo is not only a recipient of honor; she is a queen of vision, a custodian of peace, and a flourishing seed of Nigeria’s brighter tomorrow.
