Lilian Gogo: I went back to the village to serve

Achieving Woman

Dr Lillian Gogo has a close relationship with time. She wears two black smart watches, one on each hand. Explaining why would require a whole other interview and would take all day, she tells me.

In short, though, one is a prayer watch, while the other is a regular watch and both are linked to her phone. That way, she is able to keep close tabs on time and on what she needs to do, such as, as I discover later, waking up at 2.30am to study.

“I have a very high sense of focus when doing what I want to do,” she says. “When I purpose to do something, I give it my best shot. I do it like I do not have any other time to do it.”
