I am a passionate sports enthusiast, and sports have profoundly transformed my attitudes and beliefs about disability. My involvement in inclusive sports has fueled my passion. Despite my dedication, I was excluded from our regional football team due to my size. This experience made me deeply empathetic toward those who are often marginalized, stigmatized, and body-shamed. My mission is to promote unity in sports and other recreational activities by empowering children and youth with disabilities. I advocate for reversed inclusion, where people with disabilities take the lead in organizing activities that include so-called non-disabled individuals. We focus on non-competitive games and sports designed to change mindsets and challenge negative attitudes toward people with disabilities across Africa.
