Wilson Oteche Wanga’s Story

About Wilson
Meet Wilson Oteche Wanga, a 22-year-old with an indomitable spirit and an infectious smile. Despite his severe cerebral palsy, which affects both his lower and upper limbs, Wilson’s jovial nature and love for visitors light up any room he enters. He is the eldest of three siblings and lives with his family in Esiamarwi, Luanda.
Health Challenges
Wilson’s cerebral palsy has resulted in minimal speech capabilities and significant physical challenges. He has difficulty with basic activities such as feeding, crawling, dressing, and washing, requiring constant assistance from his younger brother. Despite these challenges, Wilson’s positive outlook and love for taking care of children at home showcase his nurturing side and resilience.
His condition requires ongoing physiotherapy and counseling to manage his physical and emotional well-being. Additionally, Wilson needs a wheelchair to improve his mobility and independence. The family’s financial situation makes it difficult to afford these essential supports.
Daily Life and Aspirations
Wilson’s daily routine is filled with efforts to manage his condition and maintain a semblance of normalcy. His family, led by his parents Jostone and Joyce Wanga, struggles to provide the necessary care and support due to their poor financial status. Wilson enjoys spending time with children, and his gentle and caring nature makes him a beloved figure in his community.
Despite his physical limitations, Wilson’s spirit remains unbroken. He finds joy in the simple pleasures of life and dreams of a future where he can be more independent and contribute to his family and community.
