Photos and a video shared on his TikTok page showed Mustapha visibly excited as he attended the oath of allegiance ceremony.
He opened up on his journey to becoming a US citizen, stating that it began five years ago, amid waiting patiently and uncertainty.
“Five years ago, I started a journey I didn’t fully understand. At first, it felt simple, just paperwork and time. But time turned into waiting, and waiting turned into anxiety. Every random letter made my heart race. "
"Every delay felt like a step backwards. There were nights I couldn’t sleep, wondering what if. Days I smiled outside but carried fear inside. Watching others move forward while I stayed in the same place tested my patience in ways I never imagined.”

Mustapha stated that not everyone who has moved to the US can attain this feat.
“Through the stress, the uncertainty, and the silent prayers, I kept going. And today, it finally happened. After five long years, I stood there, raised my hand, and became a U.S. citizen. In that moment, all the pain, all the anxiety, all the waiting, it made sense. This isn’t just a status. It’s proof that patience, resilience, and faith will eventually pay off. I didn’t just gain citizenship today. I won a battle I’ve been fighting for five years”, he wrote in the caption of the post.
