She is currently the Managing Director of the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) as appointed by President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday 11 July 2016.[1] She was formerly the Chief of Staff for the Kaduna State Governor.[2] Bala Usman is an active member of the All Progressives Congress (APC).[3] BiographyHadiza Bala Usman was born in Zaria to the historian, Yusufu Bala Usman.[2] Bala Usman grew up close to the campus of Ahmadu Bello University, where her father worked.[4] Hadiza Bala Usman earned her bachelor's degree in 2000 from Ahmadu Bello University and her master's degree from the University of Leeds in 2009.[2] She worked for a non-governmental organization, the Centre for Democratic Development and Research Training (CEDDERT) in Zaria as a research assistant for a year starting in 1999.[5] She has also worked for the Bureau of Public Enterprises (BPE) and as a Special Assistant to the FCT Minister on Project Implementation.[2] In 2011, she worked as Director of Strategy for the Good Governance Group (3G).[2] In 2015, she was appointed Chief of Staff for the Kaduna State Governor.[2] When Boko Haram kidnapped Nigerian schoolgirls in 2014, Hadiza Bala Usman began to protest, leading groups around Nigeria and in the kidnapped girls' hometown of Chibok.[6] She noticed that the Nigerian government was not prioritizing the kidnapping of the schoolgirls.[4] Because of this, Bala Usman joined the campaign started by Obiageli Ezekwesili #BringBackOurGirls (BBOG).[7] Bala Usman chose the color red for the campaign because it is a sign of "alarm, danger, a warning."[8] She has encouraged women "to keep the issue in the public eye."[9] Hadiza Bala Usman has also helped coordinate meetings with the parents of the kidnapped girls and members of the Nigerian government.[10] Bala Usman has continued to protest with the BBOG campaign into 2016.[11] She was appointed as the Managing Director of Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) in July 2016 by President Muhammadu Buhari. Her appointment generated a lot of controversies as many saw her nomination as ethnically based and questioned her qualification for the specific role.[12] Hadiza Bala Usman was married to an economic analyst Tanimu Yakubu Kurfi who served under the former (Late) President Umaru Musa Yar'adua as economic adviser and together they have two boys.[8] References1. ^http://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2016/07/13/fg-confirms-hadiza-bala-usmans-appointment/ 2. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{Cite news|url = http://thenewsnigeria.com.ng/2015/06/el-rufai-names-hadiza-bala-usman-first-female-chief-of-staff/|title = El-Rufai names Hadiza Bala Usman, First Female Chief of Staff|last = Adi|first = Femi|date = 29 June 2015|work = The News Nigeria|access-date = 2 February 2016|via = }} 3. ^{{Cite news|url = http://newswirengr.com/2015/02/18/bringbackourgirls-campaign-coordinator-urge-nigerians-to-vote-in-apc-vote-out-pdp-government-on-march-28/#|title = #BringBackOurGirls Campaign Coordinator Urge Nigerians To Vote In APC & Vote Out PDP Government|last = Abdullahi|first = Musa|date = 18 February 2015|work = NewsWire NGR|access-date = 2 February 2016|via = }} 4. ^1 {{Cite news|url=http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/0/08738682-7fa7-11e4-adff-00144feabdc0.html|title=Women of 2014: Hadiza Bala Usman|last=Wallis|first=William|date=12 December 2014|work=Financial Times|access-date=2 February 2016|via=}} 5. ^{{Cite web|url = http://www.wimbizannualconference.com/speakers.php|title = Event Speakers|date = |access-date = 2 February 2016|website = WimBiz|publisher = |last = |first = }} 6. ^{{Cite news|url = https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-367602948.html|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20180203005805/https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-367602948.html|dead-url = yes|archive-date = 3 February 2018|title = Kidnap of Schoolgirls Triggers Worldwide Awareness Drive|last = |first = |date = 10 May 2014|work = The Saturday Star (South Africa)|access-date = 2 February 2016|via = HighBeam Research|subscription = yes}} 7. ^{{Cite news|url = http://wmclive.com/wmc-live-114-sharon-isbin-rossana-dantonio-hadiza-bala-usman-original-airdate-2142015|title = WMC Live #114: Sharon Isbin, Rossana D'Antonio, Hadiza Bala Usman|last = |first = |date = 14 February 2015|work = Women's Media Center Live|access-date = 2 February 2016|via = }} 8. ^1 {{Cite news|url = http://metropole.ng/index.php/most-read/item/1923-hadiza-bala-usman-her-father-s-daughter|title = Hadiza Bala Usman: Her Father’s Daughter|last = Oduah|first = Chika|date = 16 July 2014|work = Metropole|access-date = 2 February 2016|via = }} 9. ^{{Cite news|url = https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-385861213.html|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20180203005815/https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-385861213.html|dead-url = yes|archive-date = 3 February 2018|title = Protesters Seek Release of Abducted Schoolgirls|last = |first = |date = 15 October 2014|work = Cape Times (South Africa)|access-date = 2 February 2016|via = HighBeam Research|subscription = yes}} 10. ^{{Cite news|url = https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-375047978.html|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20180203005754/https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-375047978.html|dead-url = yes|archive-date = 3 February 2018|title = Nigeria Leader's Meet with Missing Girls' Parents 'Rescheduled'|last = |first = |date = 16 July 2014|work = Anadolu Agency|access-date = 2 February 2016|via = HighBeam Research|subscription = yes}} 11. ^{{Cite news|url = http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/196162-bringbackourgirls-movement-fumes-over-boko-haram-defeat-claim-to-march-on-presidential-villa.html|title = #BringBackOurGirls Movement fumes over Boko Haram defeat claim, to march on Presidential Villa|last = Ezeamalu|first = Ben|date = 4 January 2016|work = Premium Times|access-date = 2 February 2016|via = }} 12. ^{{cite web |last1=Editor |title=Hadiza Bala-Usman’s appointment at NPA sparks controversy |url=https://www.ripplesnigeria.com/hadiza-bala-usmans-appointment/ |website=Ripples Nigeria |accessdate=24 January 2019}} 13. ^Nigerian Biography (13 July 2016) Biography of Hadiza Bala Usman External links
