Wheelchair bound man strives in business

Senyega, who spends his life in a wheelchair, has not allowed circumstances to define him.  He is an inspiration to all young people living with disability and others who are not.  He was born without disability in 1974, but a chronic disease attacked him, rendering him bound to a wheelchair at the age of 15. However, he did all he could to defy the odds.

In 2007, Senyega started a cleaning service business, which specialises in cleaning public transport from mini-buses, buses to taxis. Despite his permanent condition, Senyega strove to achieve the best in himself when he started the business out of merely nothing.  His spot is one of the busiest carwashes in Lobatse and he employs at least three young people who he says he has been with since the inception of the business.  At this point in time, Senyega has managed to retain tens of loyal customers who have embraced the courage in him and kept giving him the mettle.
