Hello dear readers
How has been your weekend? Trust its been awesome. I just want to share with you my guest post on olufamous.com. It isn't a motivational stuff, but a call to the society on the need to address a particular important issue which the society has consistently overlooked, which is: the plight of people with physical disability in Nigeria. I sincerely hope it will help in changing the orientation of Nigerians and stir in their hearts the need to make life more comfortable for persons living with disability.
Enjoy it
As a physically-challenged person, I have over the years observed that
much is not being done to make life comfortable for persons with
physical disability. This is probably due to the fact that we are a
minority, and are therefore not given due consideration when key
decisions are being taken by those in positions of authority.
Although our plight is glaring, yet only few persons have taken steps
aimed at making life more comfortable for us - the best others have done
is to sympathize with us. Although their sympathy is appreciated, that
is actually not what we need. What we would have preferred them to do is
to translate those sympathy into actions which could help address some
of the challenges we face in our daily living.
