The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the 2023 elections, Atiku Abubakar, has congratulated Nigerian poet and spoken word artist, Maryam Hassan, popularly known as Alhanislam, on her recent appointment as the United Nations Global Advocate for Peace.

In a statement posted via his official X handle on Monday, Atiku described Hassan as a “gifted poet and fierce voice for justice” whose work has consistently uplifted, empowered, and united people through the power of art and advocacy.

The former Vice President also recalled a moment when the acclaimed poet captured his political journey in a spoken word performance, highlighting her ability to blend art with purpose.

“I’m incredibly proud of Maryam Bukar Hassan, @Alhan_islam, on her well deserved designation as the UN Global Advocate for Peace. A gifted poet and fierce voice for justice, she has used her art to uplift, empower, and unite. She even once captured my journey through her powerful spoken word.

“Her poetry has echoed with compassion, inspired peace, and amplified the hopes of countless young people. Maryam’s elevation is a proud moment for Nigeria and for every young African woman with a dream. Keep soaring,” he wrote.

PUNCH Online reports that Hassan’s appointment was officially announced last week by the United Nations, recognising her years of work in promoting peace, gender equity, education, and human rights through spoken word poetry. She is expected to use her new global platform to advocate for dialogue, social cohesion, and youth empowerment, particularly in conflict-affected communities.

Hassan has performed on some of the world’s most prestigious stages, including the African Union and the UN Headquarters. Her poetry — deeply rooted in compassion and social justice — has made her a leading voice among a new generation of African creatives using art for activism.

Hassan, who hails from Borno State, has also collaborated with national and international organisations to develop creative platforms for community healing and peacebuilding, particularly in areas affected by violence and displacement.
