The following was her candidate statement for election to the second Welsh Youth Parliament:

My key issues are:

• Bullying
• Self-harming
• Be judged by your beliefs

Candidate Statement: To help young people just like me to get through tough challenges and help them find the voice to speak in this Wales community. My mother has her own community group called Wrexham African Community and she help millions people across Wales with their trouble so Inspire to do the same, presently I am a school council which make me the voice of year 7. Am an active member of young carers. Am a team member of North Wales swimming club so I believe with all of this experience I will be able to do my best to support young people in Wales.
