Abuja, Nigeria — September 10, 2025 — The grand halls of the National Merit Award House, Maitama, Abuja, glittered in regal splendor as leaders, dignitaries, and international delegates converged to celebrate a woman whose name has become synonymous with excellence in hospitality, tourism, and leadership. Amid a thunderous ovation, Triune Biblical University, USA, conferred on Mrs. Maidah Abubakar an Honorary Doctoral Degree in the Hospitality Industry, sealing her reputation as one of Africa’s most resilient and visionary women of influence.

From her early beginnings as a young professional with a dream, to her rise as the Executive Director of Whitebird Tourism Nigeria, Dr. Maidah Abubakar’s career progression reads like a story of determination, creativity, and impact. Over the years, she has built a formidable presence in Nigeria’s travel and hospitality sector—transforming Whitebird Tourism into a dynamic brand that not only promotes Nigeria’s cultural and tourism assets but also positions the country as a compelling global destination.

One of her most remarkable achievements has been her seamless coordination of international travels for pilgrims and tourists. Under her leadership, Whitebird Tourism has enabled countless Nigerians to fulfill their spiritual obligations by embarking on successful Hajj pilgrimages, especially during the Muslim festive seasons. 

The company’s professionalism and guidance have earned resounding praise, with many travelers lauding the efficiency, comfort, and care that defined their journeys to Hajj and Dubai. For many families, Dr. Abubakar has not only facilitated travel but has also opened doors to life-changing experiences, combining faith, culture, and exploration.

Her work goes beyond corporate leadership. Dr. Abubakar has consistently invested in youth empowerment, women development, and community-driven initiatives. She has championed capacity-building programs that equip young Nigerians with the skills to thrive in tourism, hospitality, and entrepreneurship—planting seeds of self-reliance in communities often overlooked.

The 100 Global Impact Summit and Awards, which brought together achievers from across the globe, became the perfect stage to honor a woman whose influence transcends borders. In bestowing the degree, Triune Biblical University described her as “a beacon of innovation in hospitality, a symbol of resilience in leadership, and a torchbearer for sustainable development.”

In her acceptance, Dr. Abubakar radiated gratitude and vision. “This honor is not mine alone,” she remarked. “It belongs to every young girl who dares to dream, every entrepreneur who refuses to give up, and every community that believes in the power of tourism to transform lives.”

Her story is proof that excellence is not accidental but a deliberate pursuit of purpose. Today, as an Honorary Doctor, Maidah Abubakar’s journey continues to inspire—affirming her place not only in Nigeria’s hospitality industry but also in the broader narrative of African women shaping global history.

Her recognition by Triune Biblical University, USA, is not merely an honorary title; it is a global affirmation of a life’s work dedicated to excellence, faith, and humanity. As she wears the mantle of “Doctor,” Maidah Abubakar continues to embody the very ideals of the 100 Global Impact Summit—reminding the world that Africa’s daughters are not just participating in history; they are writing it.
