Disability rights groups in Ogun State have called on Governor Dapo Abiodun to fully implement the Ogun State Disability Law. The law was signed in 2017 by former Governor Ibikunle Amosun but has yet to be operationalised.
The Joint National Association of Persons with Disabilities and the Spinal Cord Injuries Association of Nigeria made the appeal at a joint press briefing in Abeokuta. They stated that despite engaging the state government through various means since 2025, there have been no concrete results.
The groups stressed that their campaign is not aimed at confronting the government but at ensuring that commitments are turned into action. According to Daily Post Nigeria, they also cautioned that discussions about possible amendments to the law should not delay its implementation.
