Who am I?

I'm LILIAN DIBO EYONG from CAMEROON, I'm 26 years old. I'm a wheelchair model. I'm the First Runner Up of Miss Wheelchair Cameroon. I'm the author of LIVING WITH DISABILITY. I'm also the CEO of LILIAN DIBO FOUNDATION(training workshop for women and girls with disabilities on Ankara and beads accessories). I believe in abilities within disability. I believe in changing the phase of the views on persons with disabilities.


What do I think about The Fashion Hero TV series?

I think this is a platform where everyone is given the opportunity to expose talents rather than beauty. I believe its a fair competition and I'm hoping to see more of the fairness through INCLUSION.


Why would I be a great role model for this generation and inspire people as the new face of The Fashion Hero?

Emerging as the new face of the Fashion Hero, will be a great opportunity for me to let the world know that inspite disability, we can still achieve our dreams. This alone will be an inspiration to the world as they don't believe on the ability of persons with disabilities. I will use this position to increase the rate of advocacy for the rights of persons with disabilities. I will organize seminars to build back the lost self-esteem in persons with disabilities. There are lots of people who do not believe in the strength of persons with disabilities but seeing a wheelchair ♿ lady in such a platform, will boost the moral of my disabled family.
