In 2021, Najaahat became the first girl from Bedabour, Ghana to be admitted into university.
Najaahat was one of the first Teen Girls Club members when the club was founded in Bedabour in 2016. After completing Junior High School, she went on to attend Islamic Senior High School in nearby Kumasi. In early 2021, Najaahat was admitted into Teacher Training College to study education, becoming the first girl from her community to go to college.
In September 2020, Najaahat gave a speech during the Junior High School graduation in Bedabour, which you can watch on YouTube by clicking the link below. In her speech, Najaahat is encouraging girls to get involved with the Teen Girls Club.
"If you educate a woman, you educate a nation," Najaahat says in her speech. "Can you imagine the number of nations that have emerged out of the Teen Girls Clubs...how many are still emerging?"
