I joined the Wikimedia Movement in January 2025, and since then, I’ve been actively contributing to Wikipedia,translating articles into Local languages like Dagbani https://dag.wikipedia.org/wiki/Di%C5%8B%27gahim:Contributions/Seimawu_Sugri_Seidu and GhanaianPidgin https://gpe.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Seimawu_Sugri_Seidu, Wikidata https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Seimawu_Sugri_Seidu, and Wikimedia Commons https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Seimawu_Sugri_Seidu.

Currently, I serve as an Ambassador with Africa Wiki Women, and I’m a proud member of Open Foundation West Africa, Tamale Wiki Hub, and the Dagbani Wikimedians User Group.
