" Mental health issues are a big deal in the western world today, but sadly not in Africa. I know people who died because they couldn't get help, and even when they did, the stigma associated with these issues caused them spiral back down.
Being a Millennium fellow would grant me the necessary skills sufficient to increase my voice and extend help to all in need. "
