Tongues Wag over Habiba Abubakar’s Disappearance

Society Watch

Hajia Habiba Abubakar is not a stranger to many, especially the elite in the country. The rich and kind-hearted woman is one of the high-flying women in Abuja. Wealthy and well-connected, no party, worth its salt, is complete without her. The billionaire businesswoman rocked the social scene to the envy of many. Indeed, for the Kano-State born woman, life must be enjoyed to the hilt.

While she dictated the tempo of many social events, she was also not lagging in humanitarian gestures which endeared her to many, especially the underprivileged around her.

For her humanitarian gestures, the beautiful woman had been honoured with deserving awards, at home and abroad at different times.
Married to a former Nigeria High Commissioner to India, Abubakar had received awards, including the one organised by Africans in the Diaspora, in recognition of the contributions of her Non-Government Organisation (NGO), founded in 2006 in India, during her husband’s tenure in the country. The NGO transcends national, ethnic and religious borders.

However, at the moment, the notable businesswoman may have gone underground and kept a low profile. In recent times, she has not been attending social functions and has also lost steam as a philanthropist. Consequently, her new way of life seems to be giving her admirers and friends grave concerns.

While a source disclosed that her low profile could have been due to a reversal of fortunes, another one claimed that the beautiful woman could have decided to take it slow because she had been taken for granted by many she had assisted.
