Eniola Shokunbi said she wants to be president of the United States, but first she’s making an impact on her local community.

“Eniola is fabulous,” State Senator Matt Lesser said. “She wows every room she’s in front of. She’s a real rock star.”

In fifth grade, she led the efforts to create an air filter system that’s able to remove cold and COVID viruses from classrooms.
