" I'm exicted to be a Millennium Fellow, because I have access to a great network and community of young people who are passionate about making positive and sustainable change in their communities and the world at large.
I want to contribute my quota in saving the city and enlightening other people on how to save the city, because cities are centres of activity and growth, and a greater population of the world live in cities. Thus, I want to promote and ensure a healthy, functional and pleasant environment, hence breeding economic and overall national growth in a sustainable manner. "
