Hello Asaf,
Thank you very much for your response and for notifying us of the mistake. We are super grateful.
In identifying the Overall Winner, we translated his contribution page from Swahili to English and we got the name wrong after the translation.
His actual Wiki Username is Idd Ninga instead of Idd Like.
Kindly find his contributions here in the dashboard https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Wikimedia_Community_Arusha/Africa_Wiki_Challenge,_Arusha/students/overview as Idd Ninga.
We have also updated the flyer with the correction.

Congratulations to the winners!
Where can one see some of their work? I looked for the winner's contributions, but could find no user by that name. Nor do I identify this user in the competition's dashboard https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Open_Foundation_West_Africa/Africa_Wiki_Challenge_(23rd_May_to_30th_June)/students/overview. Has there been a mistake in the username, perhaps?
Thanks,
