The FCT Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) Committee on COVID-19 on Thursday distributed palliative to persons with disabilities residing in Kuje Area Council and Karshi.
The exercise took place at FCT School for the Deaf, Kuje and L.E.A Primary School, Karshi.
The residents with disabilities in these two locations visited, came out in their hundred to receive the palliative.
The Qualitative Magazine while monitoring the exercise found out that the palliative even though the beneficiaries complained that it came a bit late, they were happy receiving it but most of them preferred that the palliative be delivered to their homes because of the difficulties they faced getting to the designated centres as a result of the lockdown.
The Committee applied the same pattern of taking the items to the beneficiaries wherever they were seated within the premises to ensure physical distancing and the distribution was peaceful.
The beneficiaries at the centres were satisfied because they all got the items as the committee ensured that all present received the palliative.
Lets also inform you that The Committee were at Kwali and Gwagwalada Area Councils on Wednesday. The two places witnessed the highest turnout of beneficiaries, the same process of distribution was followed and the entire crowd of people with disabilities who trooped out went home happy and satisfied.
The distribution continues on Friday as the committee are yet to reach out to persons with disabilities in Lugbe axis and Abaji Area Council.
