Abdul Bangura

I am Abdul Bangura,a 26-year- old from freetown, Sierra Leone, and a graduate of Ahmadiyy Muslim Senior Secondary School Masoila Lungi. I am a self - taught AI enthusiast learning machine learning on my phone using free tools like Google Colab. Growing up in a Sierra Leone, I saw that talented youth have limited access to AI education, mentorship, and global competitions. My mission as IMLC 2026 Ambassador is to build Sierra Leone's first IMLC community, host free hands -on workshops at universities and tech hubs, and help over 100 students discover machine learning. I believe talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. I want to bring opportunity home and put Sierra Leone on the global AI map.
