Faith Mumo, who is the top student in 2020 KCPE exam with 433 out of 500 marks, has revealed she was inspired by former Kenyan boxer Conjestina Achieng.
The boxer popularly known as ‘Conje’, has been suffering from a schizoaffective disorder/paranoid schizophrenia since 2011.
Schizoaffective disorder is a mental health disorder that is marked by a combination of schizophrenia symptoms, such as hallucinations or delusions, and mood disorder symptoms, such as depression or mania.
Mumo pointed out on Thursday that she wants to join Kenya High School and thereafter become a neurosurgeon to help people with conditions similar to Conjestina’s.
