People with disabilities are most hit in COVID-19 pandemic, persons with disabilities who have been economically disadvanged, found themselves in more deprivations occasioned by the lockdown. People with disabilities unfortunately lack the necessary sanitary materials to meet up the most important measure of curbing the spread of the virus which is personal hygiene. But one can also appreciate some groups who have made emphatic effort to ensure that people with disabilities go through this trying time.
The Survival Festula Healthcare followed the pact of these groups when they handed over 48 hand sanitizers, 100 face masks and 100 handbills(50 in Hausa language and 50 in English Language) to JONAPWD FCT.
The JONAPWD FCT Chairman Chapter, Alhaji Abdulmumuni Ujah while distributing the materials to the cluster heads to onward distribution to some of their members appreciated the group for remembering PWDs in FCT at this time of Coronavirus pandemic.
Joint National Association of Persons with Disabilities (JONAPWD) is the umbrella body of persons with disabilities.
