As we’ve done earlier, We proudly congratulate another set of our brilliant Zongo sisters, Hanifa from Ejura, Daulat from Akumadan, Hariratah from Accra, and Mardiya Iddrisu from Mamobi, on their successful call to the Bar at the 63rd Call to the Bar Ceremony in Accra.

Their achievement reflects years of hard work, perseverance, and dedication to academic excellence. This remarkable milestone brings honour to their families and serves as an inspiration to Zongo communities across Ghana, particularly young women aspiring to pursue higher education and professional careers.

May Almighty Allah bless their knowledge and guide them to uphold the values of integrity, justice, fairness, and transparency throughout their legal practice.

Congratulations to our distinguished sisters! May your success open doors for many more to follow in your footsteps. 🎉❤️

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to our wonderful and dedicated sisters, Hajia Aishatu Khamis Ali, Esq., from Gidan Sarkin Zango Mallam Ali, and Nadia Daniyal Abdul Karim, Esq., from the Maryamiya Family , both hailing from the Zongo community, on their formal call to the Bar.

This remarkable achievement is a true testament to their tireless commitment, passion, determination, and dedication to academic excellence. Their admission to the legal profession is proof beyond reasonable doubt that our Zongo women are equally capable of pursuing and attaining the highest levels of education.

Their milestone achievement is not only a source of pride for their respective families but also an inspiration to the next generation of students, particularly young women who aspire to excel academically and professionally. Their success serves as a powerful reminder that with determination, hard work, and perseverance, no dream is beyond reach.

As they embark on this new chapter in their professional journeys, we wish them every success in their legal careers. We pray that Almighty Allah guides them to uphold the principles of integrity, fairness, transparency, impartiality, and honesty in the discharge of their professional duties, recognising that these values are fundamental to the administration of justice.

Congratulations to our distinguished sisters on this remarkable achievement! May Allah bless their knowledge, elevate their status, and grant them the wisdom to use their legal expertise to serve humanity and contribute meaningfully to society. ⚖️🎓🎉

Yesterday, Mr. Michael Kmiecinski, who is in charge of Political Affairs at the U.S. Embassy in Ghana, visited the Sarkin Zango Palace as part of his stakeholder engagement with leaders of the Zango community.

He was welcomed at the palace by the Palace Secretary, Alhaji Abdallahi Alin Tofa, alongside some members of the Zango youth, who introduced him to the history of the Hausa people and the formation of the Zango community.

Before proceeding to the Kumasi Central Mosque for the main event, he learned about the various contributions and areas of expertise within the Zongo community, including trade, scholarship, military service, artistry, education, and other aspects of its rich cultural heritage.

Well deserved recognition

Recognition feels good. But the older I get, the more I realise that the real reward is not being recognised. It is knowing that your work has made a difference.

It was an honour to be recognised for my contributions to trade, salt mining, aviation and business development at the “World-Meets-in-Ghana Executive Dinner Ball” held at Manhyia Palace, at the invitation of His Majesty Otumfuo Osei Tutu II.

I receive the recognition with deep gratitude, but I also know that no meaningful impact is ever created alone. This recognition reflects the many exceptional friends, clients, partners, communities and stakeholders I have had the privilege of working alongside throughout my journey.

They have challenged me, trusted me, opened doors, shared business ideas, created opportunities and, in many ways, made the work possible.

That is why I believe contribution matters.

You do not have to wait until you have wealth, influence, a voice or a big platform before you start giving back. Start with what you have: your knowledge, your network, your time, your skills and your access. Someone around you needs something you already know or have. Give it, because when individuals contribute what they have, communities become stronger. And when communities become stronger, everyone has a better chance to thrive.

So, if you have been waiting for the “right time” to contribute, perhaps the right time is simply today. You may never fully know how far your contribution travels.
