Dr. Mohamed Fall, the UN Resident Coordinator in Nigeria, represented by Cristian Munduate of UNICEF, stressed the importance of disability inclusion in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and ensuring equal access to opportunities for people with disabilities.
Senator Victor Umeh, representing Anambra Central Senatorial District, commended the achievement, emphasizing that children with autism can be productive and should receive specialized education and care. He urged the government to invest more in the education of autistic children.
Chikaodi Ofoegbu, Head of Retail at MTN Nigeria, also spoke at the event, highlighting the need to foster an environment where innovation and inclusivity can flourish, encouraging all Nigerians to embrace these values.
