I am deeply honoured and humbled to have received the Mandela Award for Legacy Leadership, Service & Global Impact from the Mandela Awards Commission on 10 April 2026 in Johannesburg. This moment, held at Park Hyatt Johannesburg, was more than a recognition; it was a powerful reminder of purpose. My journey has always been rooted in people. In communities. In the belief that sustainable change begins with dignity, opportunity, and shared responsibility. Through the Jane Acilo Foundation, we have worked to empower women, support young people, and create pathways for long-term transformation. This award affirms that the work matters,but more importantly, that the work must continue. I carry this recognition with humility, and as a renewed commitment to serve even more intentionally. Because true leadership is not about recognition, it is about impact. #Leadership #Purpose #GlobalImpact #Africa #Service

Roads, farms, conversations, laughter and plenty of learning along the way. We spent the day visiting farmers, checking in on the maize distribution and listening to their experiences firsthand. Every conversation gave us something to think about and another opportunity to improve. This is the part you don’t always see the journeys, the conversations and the work behind the impact. One farmer at a time. One conversation at a time.

Only about 4% of investment flowing into Africa goes into agriculture. Not because the opportunity isn’t there but because investors often view the sector through a broad-brush lens shaped by political instability, currency volatility, and financing structures that don’t match how farmers actually earn. Closing that perception gap is one of the most important steps toward unlocking capital for African agriculture and building a food system that works for the continent.

We extend special appreciation to the Government of Morocco, through its Honorary Consul to Uganda, Mr.George Nkya, for reaffirming their commitment to advancing agricultural initiatives and for the generous pledge of ten university scholarships each year. This kind of partnership reflects the true spirit of shared progress and responsibility. We also recognise the importance of corporate social responsibility in driving sustainable impact, and we are encouraged by partners who continue to invest in communities in meaningful ways.
