Sino Mankayi, he/him

Optimistic, Ambitious, Resilient

“Everything that happens is not happening to you but for you.”—Byron Katie

Born in the Township of Khayelitsha, Cape Town, Sino later moved to the affluent suburbs of Rondebosch. This gave him a beautiful experience of both worlds that money can never buy. Due to being exposed to the two extremes of society (poverty/wealth), he has joined and led nationally in radical organizations such the Congress of South African Students, the Nelson Mandela Children's Parliament, and the South African Institute of International Affairs. He is currently serving as the Junior Mayor of Cape Town. More is to come in his mission to afford young people a fighting chance in attaining economic freedom not only for themselves but many generations to come! AMANDLA!
