According to Ethan’s mother, Irene Kiwia, Ethan started working on this project when he was a five-year-old kindergarten pupil as a result of his passion for games and learning.

She added that the App EthanMan enables kids to read books, play games and keep up with the EthanMan creator, Ethan Yona.
“He has been very energetic, enjoys learning new things and loves playing games. One day he told us that he would like to create his own superhero character based on his qualities,” she said.
For his part, the Managing Director at i-Learn East Africa, Noelah Ntukamazina, said they were so excited to work with Ethan on the project. “It was fascinating that such a young kid would want to do such a big thing.
