Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman’s grandson and trustee of Center for Re-search and Information (CRI) Radwan Mujib Siddiq, who is credited with connecting young change-makers through the Young Bangla platform, turned 43 on Sunday.
The son of Bangabandhu’s younger daughter Sheikh Rehana received an overwhelming volume of wishes from all quarters, especially youths who were recognized, groomed, and networked through his initia-tives.
Born on May 21, 1980, Radwan is the eldest among three siblings. His father Shafique Ahmed teaches at globally renowned universities.
Radwan Mujib is known for spearheading a series of initiatives to connect young trailblazers under the ‘Young Bangla’ platform.
Radwan, co-producer of “Hasina: A Daughter’s Tale”, a docufiction poignantly narrating the real-life struggles of Sheikh Hasina after the murder of her father in a coup on August 15, 1975.
As the editor-in-chief of WhiteBoard, the country’s first policy-based magazine, Radwan regularly inter-acted with youths through the projects he had set in motion.
His sister Tulip Rizwana Siddiq, reputed for her fiery speech and biting wit, is a member of parliament in the UK.
