Orientation at African Leadership University is more than a welcome. It’s the first step in a journey of learning, leadership, and impact. Hear from Gloria Hamouda, one of our newest Year 1 students, as she shares why ALU is about far more than the degree, the chance to explore her passions through the E-Lab, the School of Health, and the Global Learning Experience. Ikaze. We’re excited to see what you’ll build. Ready to build? Visit alueducation.com #AfricanLeadershipUniversity #ALU #HigherEducation #YoungAfricanLeaders #NextGenLeaders

Five ventures. Top 25. One community. When Africa’s brightest ideas were put on the stage at @hangapitchfest 2026, one in five finalists had something in common, they learned, questioned, and built at ALU. That’s not a coincidence. It’s what happens when young people are trusted to solve real problems before they graduate, and keep building long after they do. Congratulations to our founders: Paul Dominion, LadX Ltd. Takura Ndoro, Nardo Pay Kelly Simbi, Afriinnox Ltd SAUVÉ Jean-Luc, Sttretch Cloud Gisele Teta, Bana Bags Current students and alumni, different industries, one shared belief, Africa’s future won’t be waited for. It will be built. What would you build if someone believed you could? #Hangafest2026 #AfricanLeadershipUniversity #ALU #ProudlyAfrican #AfricaRising #YoungAfricanLeaders #Entrepreneurship #NextGenLeaders

Young people shaping what Africa becomes next. At ALU, learning doesn’t stop at the classroom door.

"I think the quiet moments become the stories that we keep." When Eldrige Apoh lost someone who was like an aunt to him, Lawrencia to breast cancer at just 32 years old, it turned a deeply personal loss into a life-saving mission. Breast cancer is highly treatable when caught early, yet access to screening remains out of reach for millions due to high equipment costs. In our latest ALU Center for Entrepreneurship Venture Spotlight, we feature Check Me, co-founded by Eldrige Apoh. Check Me has developed a portable, affordable breast cancer screening device paired with an AI-powered platform that delivers instant results at a fraction of traditional costs. By making early detection accessible, Check Me is helping families hold onto their loved ones longer. Watch the full video to discover how personal purpose is driving healthcare innovation across Africa. #ALU #ALUCenterForEntrepreneurship #VentureSpotlight #HealthTech #CheckMe #BreastCancerAwareness #EarlyDetection #AfricanInnovation #Entrepreneurship #MedTech

True leadership requires the ability to communicate vision with clarity and conviction. We recently hosted a Public Speaking Contest at our Leadership Center, providing students with a platform to test and refine their skills in a competitive setting. Following their study of the Public Speaking module within the Self-Directed Learning component of our Foundations Programme, students moved from theory to practice, delivering compelling speeches, navigating high-pressure presentation dynamics, and showcasing their growth as persuasive communicators. Empowering the next generation of African leaders means giving them the practical arenas to build confidence, articulate solutions, and lead from the front. Congratulations to all our student participants and finalists for stepping onto the stage and leading with courage! #ALU #PublicSpeaking #SelfDirectedLearning #FoundationsProgramme #YouthLeadership #FutureLeaders #CommunicationSkills #PitchAndPresent #LeadershipInAction
