Hafsat, affectionately known as Havfy, is a multi-award-winning performance poet, a Global Youth Leader for Education by GPE, member of GRAMMYs Recording Academy, and a passionate writer and fashion enthusiast.
With a followership of over 1,000,000 people across social media platforms, she uses her voice to advocate for music, women and girls and youth in under-represented communities. Her unique and radical approach carefully disintegrates topics that are mostly treated at arm’s length to provoke conversations that often lead to solutions and these solutions recognized by organizations around the world, such as the Grammys recording Academy, TEDx, World Bank, UNICEF, UNFPA, UN Security Council, UNAID, USAID, and Pediatric AID, among others.
Beyond her advocacy for humanity and peace, Hafsat earns money with her talents by collaborating and influencing for paid partnership brands. Some of these brands include Coca-Cola, OANDO, Jager Meister, CFAO, African Global Logistics, Sterling Bank, Wema bank, MAVINS Records, and Indomie, to mention a few.
Havfy’s goal is to rock the nations, provoke the minds and the consciousness of the masses, and change the world — one metaphor at a time.
