Le Grand YAFFA is a person with albinism, which is said to be the fact of living with the lack of pigmentation in the eyes, skin and/or hair. Indeed, Albinism is an inherited condition resulting from the combination of recessive alleles passed from both parents of an individual.

Yaffa was born at the time when discrimination toward people living with albinism was of a high ration. However, succeeded thanks to education through different schools in the country where the number of illiterate people is still high. He is married to Rebecca YAFFA though not fathered a child yet.
