Our Conviction

"The children we serve deserve to be seen — by people who genuinely understand what that means."

Every person on this team brings lived experience, deep craft, and a personal conviction that children with neurological conditions and disabilities deserve more than systems — they deserve champions. This is who shows up, every day, to make that real.

Comfort OmoNikeTimothy

Treasury & Trustee

Comfort 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 Officer

Muhammadu 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.

Senior Programme Lead

SeniorProgramme Lead

Project & Outreach Coordinator

With over fifteen years delivering high-impact programmes across health, media, and community development, our Senior Programme Lead is the operational backbone of everything SAI delivers. He has shepherded initiatives from concept to community — managing timelines, coordinating volunteers, and making sure that what we promise families is exactly what gets delivered. His experience spanning Development Support Initiative, Dele Fajemirokun Foundation, and Patent Pathways International means he has seen where good intentions unravel — and exactly how to prevent it. 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 Officer

Thema 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.

What Unites Us

Four people.
One unwavering
commitment.

I

Lived Understanding

This team does not theorise about disability and neurodiversity. We know it, care about it, and have shaped our lives around it.

II

Children First, Always

Every decision — from programme design to how we spend a donation — is measured against one question: does this help a child flourish?

III

Delivery Over Promise

Plans are only as valuable as the families they reach. We follow through — every time.

than any one team.
