Near East University, Cyprus, honours three Kano state indigenes, Dr Mubarak Auwal, Dr Zubaida Said Ameen, and Asst Prof Abdullahi Garba Usman, for their outstanding achievement in the research world.
The above was made known in a Facebook post by Dr Sagiru Mati, another Kano indigene and staff of Yusuf Maitama Sule University (formerly North-West University, Kano) doing his postdoc at the same university.
Dr Mati added, “We are thrilled to announce that these brilliant individuals have been recognised as the best researchers by the prestigious Near East University. Their dedication, perseverance, and exceptional contributions to their respective fields have not gone unnoticed.
Mubarak and Zubaida, not only exceptional researchers but also a married couple, have shown us the power of collaboration, support, and shared passion in achieving extraordinary results.”
Asst Prof Abdullahi’s research focuses on analytical chemistry and operational research in healthcare. He has numerous publications in reputable journals and more than 600 citations.
The fantastic couple (Drs Mubarak and Zubaida) work in the same field of Biomedical Engineering and Artificial Intelligence. They also have several publications and hundreds of citations to their credits.
This is just part of the indelible legacy of Engr. Dr. Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso. He is alive but he is already immortalised knowing full well that people of his like will hard die from the world of history. Their memories live on and on.
