Alhamdulillah, I am truly grateful to Allah for granting me the strength, opportunities, and support that have made this journey possible. It feels both humbling and fulfilling. I often think back to my undergraduate days when I would jokingly tell friends that I would become a professor and win a Nobel Prize by the age of 30. Of course, I later realised how naïve that was. Over time, I came to understand that titles and prizes are not the real goal; what truly matters is the quality of the work and the impact it has on people’s lives. Reaching this milestone now is therefore special — not just for me personally, but also as a recognition of the collective effort of mentors, colleagues, students, and institutions who have supported me. More importantly, it comes with responsibility: to use this position as a platform to strengthen research, mentor the next generation, and inspire more African scientists to believe that they, too, can make a global impact.
