FG to ensure establishment of disability desks in MDAs


The Federal Government says it will ensure that heads of Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) establish disability desks and officers to cater to the needs of Persons With Disabilities.

 

The Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to the President on Disability Matters MOHAMMED ISA, said this during a media conference in Abuja.

 

He also said that he would also ensure the formulation of inclusive policies and an enabling environment for Persons With Disabilities.

 

According to him, this will be done in conjunction with the National Commission for Persons With Disabilities, through the introduction of international best practices.

 

He added that he would engage with state governors and other authorities to ensure the establishment and implementation of legislative framework, policies, plans and programmes to foster disability inclusion, participation, and development.
