- If you could have any superpower, what would it be and why?
If I could have any superpower, I would choose the ability to instantly understand and speak any language. I think it would be incredible to connect with people from all over the world on a deeper level, break down barriers, and really understand different cultures and perspectives. Plus, it would be a lot of fun to dive into all kinds of literature, music, and art in their original forms. Not forgetting I do love to know Chinese. Having interacted with them I have gained a love for the language.
- Which historical figure would you most like to meet?
If I could meet any historical figure, I would choose Nelson Mandela. His leadership, resilience, and commitment to justice and reconciliation are deeply inspiring. Remember all this I got from my primary school teacher describing him and from then he became someone I have learned to admire and wish that all African leaders can emulate him. I would love to hear about his experiences and his vision for a more equitable world. Mandela’s ability to transform his personal struggle into a broader movement for change is something I deeply admire.
