“We highlight the faces, voices, and stories of the people we serve from a lens of empowerment and transformation, while making space for creativity and freedom of expression without boundaries. With representation of us, by us and for us, we make sure to tell the stories that matter—the stories that come from voices outside the known and are talked about. By entrusting ourselves and our dedicated community of advocates and innovators, we are able to share our vision with our clients, partners, and the world,” said Valerie Traoré, Niyel’s executive director and founder.
Hosted by strong African voices like Nollywood actor Ike Ogbonna from Nigeria, popular Kenyan personality Adelle Onyango, Smarty a rapper and producer from Burkina Faso and journalist Bibiche M’Bete from DRC, the show will be in English and French, and feature a rich discourse of guests such as health practitioners, concerned citizens, survivors, community leaders, public health specialists, and holistic health practitioners.
Expressing her excitement about co-hosting the show, Adelle Onyango said, “It is an incredible honour to not only represent Kenya on such a significant platform but also contribute to the progress of our continent and ensure that Africans have access to information that is created by us, and for us. Working alongside Ike Ogbonna is such a vibrant experience, and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to co-host this show together.”
