People with Disabilities (PWDs) in Osun State have urged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to improve voting accessibility and make the electoral process more convenient and inclusive, particularly for persons with disabilities.
Mrs Justina Obozokhai, a wheelchair user, made the call after successfully casting her vote at Ilare III, Ward III, Unit 011, in Ife Central Local Government Area of Osun State during the election.
Obozokhai said she came out to vote despite her condition because she was educated and understood the importance of civic participation in choosing leaders through democratic elections.
According to her, people with disabilities deserve greater employment opportunities and recognition, noting that their education, abilities and willingness to contribute meaningfully to society remain valuable assets for development.
