I have such admiration for the campaigners, CSOs, groups and individuals who never gave up, and who championed efforts for nearly 20 years to make this dream a reality.

Incredibly pleased to see the Disability Bill has passed. This opens the door to a world of new and exciting possibilities for Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) #DisabilityBill #Nigeria #PWD
