The Mion District Assembly has provided financial assistance and livelihood support to 143 Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) to aid in establishing or expanding their businesses and achieving economic self-reliance. This support is part of the Assembly's first phase of the five percent allocation for PWDs under the District Assemblies Common Fund (DACF), which was distributed at the assembly premises.
The beneficiaries received various items, such as sheep, goats, and freezers. Mr. Hamza Azindow Moabalyn, the District Chief Executive, emphasized the initiative's objective of empowering PWDs to generate sustainable incomes and reduce their dependence on others. A monitoring team has been established to ensure beneficiaries utilize the support effectively.
The MP for Mion, Alhaji Misbaw Adam Mahama, highlighted that increasing the allocation for PWDs from three to five percent would enable Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Assemblies (MMDAs) to assist more beneficiaries. The government is closely monitoring the disbursement process to ensure that only eligible individuals receive the support.
