Employment For The Physically Challenged

Ekiti State governor, Ayo Fayose, yesterday gave automatic employment to 10 physically-challenged persons in the state, just as 35 wheelchairs were provided for them.
The governor also said the state government would take over the treatment and upkeep of a five-year-old Olumide Enoch, who suffers from cerebral palsy.
Fayose announced the gestures during an interactive session he had with the physically-challenged
persons at the Governor’s Office as part of activities to mark his first year in office.
A statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi said the employment opportunities would cut across different categories of people.
Those to benefit from the employment are those with sight challenges, albinos, deaf and dumb, among others.
The governor also said the 10 persons should include six males and four females.
One of the beneficiaries of the employment opportunities, Miss Ibitoye Helen, said she graduated from the Ekiti State University, Ado-Ekiti in 2012 with a second class degree in English and Literary Studies and had been finding it difficult to make ends meet.

Fayose kudos to your government. 
Other governments should try and follow suit, because the physically challenged are Nigerians and as such, should benefit from the government.


Change!!!
