Testimonials
President, MACAUS
Tiberious Cinya
“For me, staying connected to the Ma’di community is both a privilege and a calling. I am proud to be Ma’di—not just because of our rich culture and history, but because of the strength, resilience, and unity I see in our people every day. As President, I am committed to nurturing those connections and creating spaces where we can celebrate who we are, support one another, and pass our values on to future generations. My hope is that every Ma’di child grows up proud of their identity and confident in their place in the world. Together, we are not only preserving our heritage—we are shaping a powerful legacy.”
Assistant Secretary for Youth Affairs
Joyce Adiges
“Staying connected to the Ma’di community is meaningful to me because I am proud of who I am and where I come from. Thanks to my parents, I can speak our language and have a growing understanding of our culture and traditions. This connection allows me to build relationships within the community and embrace my identity fully. It’s important to me to preserve and pass down this heritage to my child, future children, and to share it proudly with others outside the community.”
Secretary of Information
Eriga Simon
“Staying engaged with the Ma’di community is deeply meaningful to me because it is where I come from—it is my foundation. Through my involvement, I have the opportunity to connect with fellow Ma’di brothers and sisters, stay informed about community events, and participate in cultural traditions that keep our heritage alive. I genuinely love and value my Ma’di community, and that will never change.”
