             y time at Wesley Girls’ was a turning point in my life. I became more independent and   together with them as a team. This has helped me in my work where I interact with people with
        Mbegun seeing challenges as opportunities.                         different backgrounds.
                                                                           I met people of all hues and stripes, and have made lifelong friends.
         I also met many amazing ladies who have become life time friends and sisters.   Interesting things I remember from my alma mater?
                                                                           • The Sickbay: I had the rudest shock of my life one day, when I was ready to enjoy my “fish stew”
