The Governor urged the beneficiaries to remain consistent in making positive plans and aspirations to make their lives better and more prosperous as the government from its side has a lot of programmes and policies to project their lives to better living.

The State Deputy Governor, Comrade Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo, said it is the responsibility of leaders at all levels to cater for the needs of their followers saying what Governor Abba Kabir did was timely in view of current harsh economic situation in the country.

Comrade Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo called on the leaders of Associations of People Living With Disability to unite themselves and remain committed in serving their members as government is always ready to stood by them to forge ahead.

The beneficiaries were drawn from eight clusters that include: the blinds, Crippled, deafs and dumbs, albinos, lepers and spinal cord injury patients across the 44 local governments of Kano State.

The Governor also assured the people living with disabilities that his government is set to establish the PWD Commission in Kano to domesticate the Disabilities Act initiated by the Federal Government.

Earlier in his address, the chairman of PWD in Kano Engr. Musa Muhammad Shaga appreciated the Governor’s good gesture for fulfilling his campaign promise on social inclusion through the support to people living with disabilities.
