Wanja: 'I may have lost my sight, but not zeal for gospel music'

Achieving Woman

At the age of six, Emily Wanja was a happy-go-lucky girl. Her life revolved around going to school, doing house chores, and playing with her age mates.

Born in the miraa growing area of Meru, she spent her childhood playing hide-and-seek in the miraa fields. She had a lot of fun.

Wanja never envisioned that her favourite game would one day change her life forever. Hers is a story of struggle, determination, hope, and resilience.
