At AGYA, Kenny facilitates various arts workshops with children and youth. Specializing in African Batik prints, Kenny is an extremely talented young man who dreams of becoming an industrial artist. Kenny is also active in the AGYA Poetry and Creative workshops as well as the hip-hop class. When asked to express his feelings after learning that he had won the election, Kenny said:
"Being the Headboy is an amazing experience that entrusts one with
responsibility of guiding and leading fellow students at school. I am so
grateful to my AGYA family because of the support they gave me during my
campaign. They made me posters and always encouraged me. They showed me that I am not alone, and there are special people who are willing to stand up for me."
