The Many Faces of Mommy’s Pikin

By Bauchi Pearl Magazine

In today’s world of content creation and entrepreneurship, only a few names strike the delicate balance between relatability, professionalism, and impact. One of those names is Hulda Nuhu, popularly known as Mommy’s Pikin or Local Arewa Gyal. Hulda’s journey is not the ordinary tale of success; it is a story of resilience, versatility, and purpose. From her early days of curiosity and storytelling to becoming an entrepreneur, writer, host, mentor, and relocation coach, Hulda has proven that dreams backed by discipline can grow into movements.

A Name That Carries Legacy

The name Mommy’s Pikin is more than a catchy moniker, it is a deeply personal brand rooted in memory and humility. Initially inspired by the phrase Mommy’s Girl, Hulda chose to replace “Girl” with “Pikin,” a Pidgin English word that resonates more with everyday people. It wasn’t just about sounding unique; it was about identity, relatability, and impact.

For Hulda, this name is a constant reminder that no matter how far she goes in life, she will always remain grounded and tied to her roots. It speaks of her late mother’s memory, her values, and her drive to remain teachable, humble, and impactful. The brand she has built around it stands for legacy, impact, and consistency, qualities that shine through everything she does.

Building Blocks of a Career

Hulda’s professional journey spans multiple industries and roles. She has been a business developer, technical operator, content creator, voiceover artist, master of ceremonies, foodstuff vendor, relocation coach, and entrepreneur. Each of these roles may seem different, but together, they shaped her into the multifaceted professional she is today.

Hosting and writing gave her the stage to tell stories that matter. Entrepreneurship gave her a voice to design solutions for people’s needs. And mentoring gave her a purpose beyond herself, the joy of seeing others grow and succeed because of her guidance.

Education Meets Creativity

Her educational background in Business Management, Marketing, and Administration provided the structure she needed. Beyond classroom knowledge, education gave her the discipline to research, analyze, and transform abstract ideas into actionable plans. Management sharpened her leadership skills, while communication empowered her to inspire and organize.

This combination of structured learning and creative energy is what makes her stand out. Hulda doesn’t just dream; she plans. She doesn’t just execute; she strategizes. And most importantly, she doesn’t just create for attention — she creates for impact.

The Spark of Inspiration

The inspiration to venture into content creation came from a need to bridge gaps. Hulda saw the struggles people faced, from relocation and job hunting in Abuja to lifestyle and relationship challenges, and she knew her creativity could serve as a bridge.

Her journey into entrepreneurship followed naturally. The realization that her ideas could transform into businesses and services that people genuinely need gave her another avenue to create change. One of her most fulfilling moments comes when clients send her the simple but powerful message: “I’ve been hired.” Those three words fuel her mission and remind her that her work is not just about content, it is about life-changing impact.

Guiding Principles That Define Her

At the core of her brand are four guiding principles:

Authenticity – staying real with her audience and true to herself.

Consistency – showing up even when challenges make it difficult.

Impact – creating content and businesses that solve real-life problems.

Excellence – delivering quality in everything she does.

These values are evident in her unique hosting style, which is engaging and personable, her writing, which is practical and solution-driven, and her entrepreneurial ventures, which are professional and people-focused.

Standing Out in a Competitive World

What sets Hulda apart is her versatility and relatability. She is not confined to a single lane. One day she is a content creator, the next she is an entrepreneur, and another day she is mentoring a young person on relocation opportunities. She switches roles with ease, but always remains authentic.

In an industry saturated with voices, her edge is that she is not just producing content — she is solving problems, selling products, guiding careers, and creating communities.

The Challenges That Shaped Her

Like many successful individuals, Hulda’s journey has not been without struggles. Balancing multiple roles required discipline and sacrifice. There were financial limitations and resource constraints that could have slowed her down. But instead of letting them define her, she leveraged her creativity, maximized digital platforms, and relied on consistency.

One of her most personal challenges was navigating identity misconceptions. Some mistook her faith or doubted her northern roots, questioning her authenticity. Such doubts slowed her progress at certain stages. Yet today, those same doubts have turned into clarity — her identity is now visible, accepted, and celebrated.

A Vision Beyond Borders

Hulda’s goals are clear and ambitious. She envisions building a personal brand that inspires not only in Nigeria but across Africa and beyond. Her dream is to turn Mommy’s Pikin into a global hub for relocation coaching, entrepreneurship, and lifestyle storytelling.

She plans to publish books that inspire and guide, host international events that bring communities together, and expand her businesses into global enterprises. Her winning strategy remains unchanged: consistency, collaboration, and continuous learning.

Her Audience, Her Family

Unlike many who focus solely on numbers and statistics, Hulda prioritizes connection. She treats her audience like family. Through storytelling, interactive content, and direct communication, she creates a sense of belonging. Whether on TikTok, Facebook, or live events, her mission is to foster relationships built on trust and authenticity.

Moments That Matter

Of all her achievements, one stands out as especially memorable: helping someone secure a job and relocation opportunity through her content. The gratitude she received and the ripple effect it created reminded her of the true essence of her work. It is not about likes, shares, or viral numbers. It is about impact — changing lives one story at a time.

What’s Next for Mommy’s Pikin?

Hulda is currently working on expanding Capital Move with Mommy’s Pikin, a relocation and job guide platform that connects people with opportunities. She is also developing new products under the Mayor Gad brand and preparing an exciting content series that will focus on relationships, lifestyle, and relocation.

These upcoming projects reflect her ability to combine entrepreneurship with storytelling, always with the audience’s needs at heart.

Words of Wisdom

To aspiring content creators, writers, and entrepreneurs, Hulda’s message is both practical and inspiring:

“Start small, stay consistent, and be authentic. Don’t compare yourself with others. Focus on solving real problems, building real connections, and being reliable. Innovation isn’t always about being flashy; sometimes, it’s about being dependable.”

A Future of Collaboration

Hulda remains open to partnerships, collaborations, and training workshops. She sees these as opportunities to expand her vision, share her knowledge, and collaborate with others to create something even greater.

Conclusion

In every sense, Hulda Nuhu — Mommy’s Pikin — is more than a brand name. She is a storyteller, a problem-solver, a mentor, and an entrepreneur. Her journey embodies resilience, creativity, and impact. Through her work, she continues to prove that authenticity and consistency are the real keys to lasting success.

Her story is not just hers alone. It is a story of northern resilience, African creativity, and the limitless potential of youth who dare to dream.
