Comfort OmoNikeTimothy
Treasury & TrusteeComfort holds SAI's resources with the same care she brings to every person she encounters — personally and precisely. As a physically challenged woman who has navigated the world's real barriers firsthand, she ensures that every naira and pound entrusted to this organisation is stewarded toward families who genuinely need it. An entrepreneur and graphic designer by training based in Lagos, she understands what it means when systems fail people with disabilities — and what it means when those same people choose to build something better instead. Her role as trustee is not merely financial; it is a moral commitment to making certain that SAI's promises to children and families are always backed by the resources to keep them.

Muhammadu AbdullahiSulaiman
Awareness & Social Media OfficerMuhammadu understands something most communicators miss: the gap between a message and the person it needs to reach. A physicist turned product manager, he builds SAI's public voice the same way he builds everything — from first principles. He identifies who we need to reach, what they need to understand, and what it will actually take to move them. His work ensures that families who need SAI's support can find us; that donors understand the stakes; and that the wider world begins to see neurological conditions and disability not as burdens to manage, but as realities that demand systemic, compassionate response. Based in Bauchi and active across Nigeria's tech scene, he brings analytical rigour to every campaign he runs.

At SAI, he translates our mission into programmes that children and families can count on: structured, consistent, and accountable to the people they serve.

ThemaOsadebay
Fundraising OfficerThema came to SAI's work the way that matters most — as a parent who understands, in her bones, why children need champions. CEO of Afrotrapmedia, she has built a platform rooted in community and cultural voice. She brings that same conviction to securing the funding that keeps SAI alive and expanding. Thema knows that the difference between a child who flourishes and a child who falls through the cracks often comes down to whether the right resources reach the right people in time. Children are central to who she pours into — personally and professionally. At SAI, she builds the partnerships and donor relationships that turn compassion into sustainable, lasting impact on the ground.

Oluwaseun MayowaBalogun
Marketing & Business Development OfficerOluwaseun brings a marketer's discipline to a mission that has never needed anything less. Trained in business administration with a career built around developing and launching strategy — product positioning, pricing, advertising, customer relations — he treats SAI's growth with the same rigour he'd bring to any brand he believed in, because he does believe in this one. He understands that awareness and donor confidence aren't accidents; they're built, tested, and refined like any other strategy. His focus on process and procedure means SAI's outreach doesn't just sound compelling — it's structured to actually convert into support that reaches families. Colleagues know him for staying composed under deadline pressure and for coaching teams toward outcomes rather than just activity. At SAI, he applies that same combination of strategic clarity and steady execution to make sure the organisation's story reaches the people who can help carry it further.

Tadiwa
Creative DirectorTadiwa has spent five years proving that design is never just decoration — it's how a message actually lands. Across entertainment, beauty, women-led organisations, production, personal brands, and event spaces, he's learned to read a room before he ever opens a design file: who is this for, what do they need to feel, and what will make them stop and pay attention. That range is exactly why SAI's visual identity is in his hands. Children with neurological conditions and disabilities are too often reduced to statistics or stock imagery; Tadiwa's work is to make sure every visual SAI puts into the world carries the same dignity and warmth the organisation extends to the families it serves. From the platform's design language to campaign visuals, he shapes how SAI is seen — so that what people feel when they encounter this work is exactly what it deserves to be felt.

Ifeyinwa JulianaEmeka
Founder, Iphynitty Agro & Greenblossom Women FoundationIfeyinwa builds from the ground up — literally. Founder and CEO of Iphynitty Agro Limited and of Greenblossom Women Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to training and supporting women in agriculture, agribusiness, and rural livelihoods, she has spent her career proving that when rural women are equipped rather than overlooked, entire communities rise with them. Originally from Ngor Okpala in Imo State, she holds a National Diploma and a Higher National Diploma in Industrial Design from Yaba College of Technology, Lagos — a foundation that now shapes how she designs programmes as thoughtfully as she once designed products. A fashion designer, beekeeper, and agripreneur by practice, her work spans far beyond any single title, but the throughline is constant: a deep commitment to rural women and vulnerable children, and a belief that dignity is built through skill, ownership, and opportunity. At SAI, she brings that same conviction — that the people closest to a problem are often the ones best placed to solve it, given the right support.
