“I would never have seen this coming in a million years. What an absolute honor! Making this year’s TIME100 Next list of influential leaders shaping the future of their fields and defining the next generation of leadership hasn’t sunk in at all,” Asige said.
“It has been proven to me time and time again that disability itself does not discriminate; people do. It’s about time that Kenyans and Africans at large realize what we can bring to the table if only they look beyond what they see,” she added.
