Habib's journey began in 2010 as an art student in J Class at Federal Government College, Malali, Kaduna. During those formative years, he and his peers spent countless hours engaged in playful activities, navigating friendships, and dreaming of their futures. However, Habib's path took a significant turn when he faced a setback after receiving disappointing JAMB results in 2013. Rather than allowing this setback to deter him, he shifted his focus to the sciences and dedicated himself to achieving a new goal.
In addition to his academic achievements, Habib made a notable impact at Bayero University by delivering a speech at the first-ever induction ceremony for engineering graduating students. He took on the responsibility of organizing the inductees and effectively representing their interests with the organizing committee of the induction event. Furthermore, he demonstrated exceptional leadership skills by serving as the Technical Director of the Nigerian Institution of Mechanical Engineers (NIMechE), Bayero University Kano (BUK) chapter. Habib progressed through the ranks, becoming the Vice President in Level 4 and ultimately being elected President in Level 5.
