Hakama:Celebrating an embodiment of kindness and professionalism on her birthday.

By AbdurRaheem Sa’ad Dembo anipr

Birthdays are celebrated once a year but as simple as you may think it would be, some do not have much grace to achieve that, because they’re beneath the soil.This is why it is imperative to reflect on one’s birthday and give glory to Allah for the gift of life.

Hajiya Hakama Sidi Ali is a professional Public Relations person and has distinguished herself in the business of it at the Central Bank of Nigeria.She is the first woman to have attained the position of Acting Director, Corporate Communications at the Apex Bank.

Recently she won the African Iconic Women award for the second time, the category of female spokesperson,having won it in 2025.Such a feat is predicated on her trajectory, commitment and transparency as a professional.

Most importantly,she is kind to the best of my knowledge, because yours sincerely has benefited from her pool of magnanimity.Hajiya is Pan-African,she believes so much in giving and relating with people regardless of their tribes and religions.

Since I knew her in 2008 one thing makes her to be unique, that is frankness.In other words,she is blunt as she will not pretend when dealing with issues about her work and her relationship with colleagues, family and friends.

She is a good sister and mother, due to her largeheartedness.As she celebrates her birthday,I pray for Allah’s guidance and protection for her and her family.

In conclusion, I pray that Allah grants her more years in good health, progress, happiness and stability.
