The Dangote Leadership Development Programme of the Dangote Group, in partnership with the Centre for Citizens with Disabilities (CCD), empowered fourteen (14) persons with disabilities in Lagos State with wheelchairs on April 24, 2025, to enhance their mobility.
The team, led by Lebimoyo Olubunmi, Internal Audit Manager at Dangote Sugar Refinery Plc (DSR), commended CCD for its remarkable work in advocating for the rights and inclusion of persons with disabilities, particularly in empowering them and their families to maximize their potential. She further stated that the Dangote Group is passionate about giving back to society, and as part of the organisation’s culture of ensuring equal opportunity for all, the team initiated the programme to empower persons with disabilities in Lagos State by distributing wheelchairs to enhance their mobility and participation in society.
The highlight of the programme was the distribution of wheelchairs to the fourteen beneficiaries. Following the presentation, the beneficiaries expressed profound joy and gratitude for being selected. They commended both organisations for their efforts to improve the lives of persons with disabilities. The moment was well captured as the beneficiaries received their wheelchairs.
The team appreciated the Centre and the beneficiaries for making the programme a success and reiterated their commitment to continue supporting and empowering persons with disabilities to enhance their lives and contribute meaningfully to society.
