Leaders of People Living With Disabilities (PWDs) have appealed to the government of Bauchi state to consider them in the ongoing employment process of the state.
The PWDs led by their Leader, Haruna Pali made the request when they visited the executive chairman of Bogoro local government area, Surveyor Dr. Lawi Sumi JP in his office yesterday.
Pali stressed that his members, if given job slots in the state’s civil service, would help in addressing many of their life challenges.
He assured the chairman that if given the opportunity, they would contribute significantly to Bogoro, Bauchi State, and Nigeria’s development.
The delegation appreciated the council boss for his concerns for the PWDs and thanked Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi state for his support and inclusive leadership.
While responding, the Bogoro local government Chairman, Yakubu Lawi Sumi JP promised to support their activities and consider their requests in line with Governor Mohammed’s administration’s vision for equitable development and social justice.
