Dr. Mariam Abubakar hails from the Bono Region in Ghana and was once faced with a difficult decision: continue her dream of becoming a doctor or switch to a less expensive field of study. Thanks to an MTN Bright Scholarship, Mariam's dream continued and she now serves patients at Holy Family Hospital. The scholarship provided her with the financial support she needed to complete her Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBChB) degree at the University of Cape Coast.
Mariam graduated with three awards in 2025, including Overall Best Student in Surgery, Best Student in Family Medicine, and the Emeritus Professor E. E. Brako's Prize for Best Student in Microbiology. After graduating, Mariam began her internship at Holy Family Hospital in mid-April 2026, marking the start of her career as a practising physician.
