With over 4 years of experience in engaging, developing, and managing programs targeting adolescents and young people at both community-based and Non-governmental organizations; providing seasonal information to ensure the AYPs access holistic AYSRH services promptly.

He volunteers to disseminate Age-appropriate knowledge on sexual reproductive health and rights to adolescents and youth both in and out of school and people living with disabilities. He also urges men to be deliberate about making decisions regarding their healthcare. He wants them to fight back against societal norms and toxic masculinity by proactively seeking health services for issues considered taboo in African society, such as mental health and sexual and reproductive health.

Ougo participates in community awareness programmes via roadshows to amplify the voices of men and encourage them to seek preventive healthcare and utilize health services. He argues that the issue can only be tackled head-on, otherwise, deep-rooted barriers will intensify and prevent men from engaging with healthcare professionals. However, he notes that policies and changes implemented must consider the opinions of men to be successful at encouraging them to seek and utilize these services.
