Ogun CP Affirms Persons with Disabilities as Complete Nigerian Citizens

The Ogun State Commissioner of Police, Bode Ojajuni, has affirmed that persons with disabilities (PWDs) are complete Nigerian citizens, and should never be treated as second-class citizens. Ojajuni made this statement on Tuesday during a visit by the leadership of the Joint National Association of Persons with Disabilities (JONAPWD), Ogun State Chapter, at the Command Headquarters, Eleweran, Abeokuta. According to Daily Post Nigeria, Ojajuni emphasized the importance of treating PWDs with dignity and respect, and ensuring their full integration into society. He called for more awareness and understanding of the needs and rights of PWDs in order to create a more inclusive society. This affirmation comes as a significant step towards ensuring the rights and dignity of PWDs in Nigeria, a country where they are often marginalized and discriminated against. The Ogun State government has not yet released a statement in response to this affirmation, but Ojajuni’s words are a powerful reminder of the need for inclusivity and respect for all Nigerian citizens.
