As a friend wrote Mallam Ibrahim Bature who is also undergoing his PhD studies at the same institution in China he said join me to congratulate my dearest sister, Dr. Hadiza Bako, as she successfully defended her Ph.D. thesis at Nanjing Agricultural University, China. The second-highest-ranking agricultural university in the world.

Congratulations to the Doctor of Food Science, a hardworking, dedicated lady. Hadiza is a great inspiration to contemporary Northern women. Her courage and determination are things that require the study of every sociologist.

On behalf of myself and my family, we are sending our big congratulations. May Allah bless the knowledge learned and the certificates earned.

She was like a

sister, and I was like a brother to her. This great feat in your academics is so personal to me. I wish you all the success in all your future endeavours.

You are a rare definition of a hardworking woman.

Actually this is a thing of proud to the entire country particularly Northern part of the country as she break record of being the only woman in that field from the Northern Nigeria.
