Jeremy is from a very poor home. His two sisters also attend Tumaini, and the support/provision of the school is invaluable to their mother, Ana. After Ana's sister passed away, she adopted her two nephews, but unfortunately this led to her husband leaving the family. Ana now shares a 1-room home between herself, her four children, and their two cousins.

Jeremy is an excellent defender, and he dreams of becoming a professional footballer one day.
