Her family’s Christian faith played a pivotal role in guiding her journey, shaping her values of honour, integrity, and love, which in turn significantly influenced her life and career. They stress the significance of learning from mistakes, being grateful for small blessings, and treating others with respect. These values were passed down from her parents to her and her siblings, with the hope that they will continue the legacy.
“I think that me being able to show even in losses that I’m satisfied in the Lord and his plan for me is the best thing I could do, because it shows people that I’m not relying on winning to be OK. It shows that even someone who has world records and gold medals still needs the Lord.” (jesuscalling.com, Mar 2024))
Kaya na goneyalewa oqo ni ni nona mai rawata na koula e vu ga mai na nona gugumatua.
