As I step into this new month and week, I’m particularly mindful of a significant milestone—the final year of the International Decade for People of African Descent, an initiative launched by the United Nations to recognise the invaluable contributions of the African diaspora globally. This celebration reaffirms our collective commitment to the elimination of all forms of discrimination and reminds us of the shared values that unite us: equality, dignity, and the belief in the potential of every individual to contribute meaningfully to society’s development, growth, and wellbeing.

In this spirit of reflection, I am both humbled and excited to share an article recently released by King’s College London, where I take a look back at my own journey—from my time as a student to my ongoing mission with the Wellbeing Africa Foundation. Through this article, I share how my experiences have shaped my commitment to advancing equitable healthcare and improving the health outcomes of women, children, and communities across Nigeria and Africa.

My path has been guided by a deep passion to give back, to provide resources, and to ensure access to quality care that creates lasting and sustainable impact. The Wellbeing Africa Foundation continues to drive these efforts, advocating for healthcare systems that prioritise the most vulnerable and uplifting communities through empowerment and capacity building.

I invite you to read the full article through the link below, and to join me in reflecting on how we can all play a part in uplifting Nigeria, Africa, and the global African diaspora. Together, we can work towards creating a healthier, more inclusive world for future generations.

Happy new week to all. May it be one of reflection, action, and positive impact!
