This edition’s African Hero is one person who, for over a decade, has been a lifeline to remote communities, often trekking steep, dangerous terrain to deliver vaccines, treat illnesses, and support expectant mothers.
One viral moment in 2023 showed her climbing a rickety wooden ladder with a medical box strapped to her back, en route to Nataba parish. That image became a symbol of resilience and sacrifice in Uganda’s healthcare system.
Let’s join Naa Dedei Tettey for our African Hero of today.
