Zaria Haggai Alumni Outreach Seminar – February 7, 2026
On a bright February morning in Zaria, Kaduna State, something extraordinary unfolded within the peaceful walls of the Chapel of Resurrection, Federal University of Education, Zaria. It was not just another gathering. It was a convergence of visionaries, young leaders, mentors, and dreamers; united by a shared desire to grow, to lead, and to shape the future.
The Zaria Haggai Alumni Outreach Seminar, organized by HI Zaria Alumni, was a non-residential seminar, yet its impact was deeply residential in the hearts of all who attended.
Zaria Awareness Seminar Session
A Gathering of Purpose
Twenty-six participants (12 men and 14 women) representing FCS, ESM, and NFCS fellowships, came together in an atmosphere charged with anticipation. Though modest in number, the room carried the weight of transformation.
There were no registration fees. No certificates were issued. And yet, what was received that day was far more valuable than paper recognition: clarity, conviction, and calling. The seminar demonstrated that true impact is not measured by numbers alone, but by depth, by seeds planted in fertile hearts.

Voices of Transformation
The beauty of the seminar was perhaps best captured in the testimonies of participants.
Paul Enoch, a 400-level Economics student, reflected on how communication shapes influence and how investing in the next generation determines the future. He left determined to “make the difference, from here and outside, so that the world will be a better place.”
Olom Peace, a 300-level Computer Science student, described the seminar as “life-changing and transformative,” discovering that leadership begins with self-awareness and extends to intentional succession planning.
Magaji Oliva, President of NFCS, connected leadership principles to national development. His insight was piercing: Nigeria’s challenge is not lack of resources; it is leadership. Equipped with new knowledge, he committed to imparting what he learned to his executive team and beyond.
These were not passive attendees. They were awakened leaders.

The Emergence of A Community
From faculty evaluations to group photographs, from prayer coordination to seamless technical support, every detail reflected excellence and collaboration.
The dedication of the organizing team, including the Seminar Coordinator, Dr. Iheanacho C. Iweha; Head of Technical, Dr. Jonathan Zishim Danjuma; Head of Registration, Bro. Freeman Nomhimmi Yohanna; and other resource persons demonstrated servant leadership in action.
Special appreciation was extended to Mrs. Lami Dakwat for her foundational support, as well as the HI Jos chapter executives and national leadership for their prayers, mentorship, and visionary encouragement.
The seminar was not an isolated event. It was part of a larger movement, alumni intentionally impacting their spaces for Christ.

The Ripple Effect
Though the seminar lasted only hours, its influence will echo for years.
In lecture halls.
In fellowship meetings.
In student leadership offices.
In marriages yet to be formed.
In leaders yet to emerge.
Leadership transformation is rarely loud but it is powerful. It begins quietly, in rooms like this, where vision is clarified and courage is strengthened.
