SENATOR JIMOH IBRAHIM EMPOWERS 60 PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES IN ONDO
…60 Persons with disabilities got cash gift of #200,000 each
…REHFODI Executive Director, Wale Akintade described the gesture as life-changing and timely
Members of Renewed Hope for the Disabled Initiative, REHFODI on behalf of Persons with Disabilities of Ondo South Senatorial District have expressed their profound appreciation to distinguished Senator Jimoh Ibrahim, CFR , OFR, for his generous empowerment initiative targeted at them.
In a commendable act of compassion and commitment to inclusive economic growth, Senator Ibrahim has provided cash support of N200,000 each to 60 individuals with disabilities across the district, aimed at boosting their economic livelihoods and promoting self-sufficiency at this economic situation in the country.
This impactful gesture reflects the Senator’s dedication to social equity and the well-being of all constituents, particularly the often-overlooked segment of society.
The cash support, tailored to empower recipients in their respective trades and small-scale businesses, is expected to significantly improve their living standards and economic independence.
REHFODI joined other leaders of the disability community, civil society representatives, and other cluster groups to laud this initiative as a bold step toward sustainable empowerment and social inclusion.
The Executive Director of Renewed Hope for the Disabled Initiative, Mr. Wale Akintade in a press release issued at Akure described the gesture as life-changing and timely, especially in the face of the current economic challenges in the country.
“This is the first time in the history of this State that a sitting Senator will think about the often forgotten and marginalized group in the society who are part of the electoral processes that do vote during elections but are always left out of enjoying dividends of democracy”
He further stated that “we are appealing to all other elected representatives at both the local, State and federal levels of government to emulate the good gesture of Senator Jimoh Ibrahim in making lives better for citizens with Disabilities in their own various constituencies as we can’t just leave everything concerning issues of persons with Disabilities to the State Government all alone”
Senator Jimoh Ibrahim’s intervention reaffirms his unwavering commitment to the service of humanity and the continuous development of Ondo Southern part at Senate.
We celebrate his vision, compassion, and exemplary leadership and we wish him well in his future endeavors.
