Taraba State Commissioner for Social Justice and Reintegration, Hon. Dr. Filister Irarimam Musa, has commended the Justice, Development and Peace Commission (JDPC), Jalingo, and the Beautiful Gate Handicapped People Centre, Jos, for distributing 100 wheelchairs to persons living with disabilities in the state.

The Commissioner gave the commendation during the distribution exercise held at the Saint Charles Borromeo Pastoral Centre, Mile Six Bypass, Jalingo.

Hon. Dr. Musa described the intervention as a significant humanitarian gesture, noting that government alone cannot address all the challenges confronting persons living with disabilities.

She called for stronger collaboration among government, religious organisations, civil society groups and development partners to ensure that persons living with disabilities receive the necessary support and equal opportunities to participate fully in society.

The Commissioner also appreciated JDPC and the Beautiful Gate Handicapped People Centre for responding to the mobility needs of vulnerable persons, describing the intervention as a practical contribution towards social inclusion and improved quality of life.

She assured the organisations and beneficiaries of the state government’s continued support for initiatives aimed at promoting the welfare, dignity and inclusion of persons living with disabilities.
