The FCT Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) Committee on COVID-19 on Tuesday distributed palliative to persons with disabilities residing within some parts of Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC).
The qualitative magazine reports that the distribution took place in two centres, L.E.A primary School, Karu Site which covered residents with disabilities at Jikwoyi, Kurudu, Orozo, Nyanya, Karu, Karshi etc and the second centre was L.E.A Primary School, Jabi which covered residents with disabilities from Wuse, Garki, Asokoro, Maitama, Kabusa, Jabi, Gwarinpa, Karimo, Gwagwa, Jiwa etc.
INN gathers that the distribution was well coordinated by the committee and peaceful and all those who were at the centres of the distribution got the palliative.
INN learnt that the committee preferred the option of home delivery of the palliative but they are faced with the challenge of logistics to do that so they have no other option than choosing designated centres and ensure that beneficiaries obey social distancing by taking the palliative to them wherever they are seated within the place of distribution.
The Exercise continues on Wednesday at Rehabilitation Centre, Kwali to cover the PWDs in Kwali Area Council, Pilot Primary School near Area Court, Gwagwalada to cover residents with disabilities in Gwagwalada Area Council and Abuja School for the Deaf, Kuje for residents with disabilities in Kuje Area council.
