The National Council of Persons with Disabilities (NCPWD) marked Jamhuri Day with a powerful message on Facebook, echoing the spirit of the occasion and advocating for inclusivity and equality.
Their online presence became a platform to amplify the voices of Kenyans with disabilities and call for a society that recognizes and embraces their potential.
The council underscored the inspiring spirit of unity and resilience amongst persons with disabilities, recognizing the immense strength they possess as a community.
While celebrating national pride, the NCPWD’s statement also served as a powerful reminder of the challenges and barriers that persist for many Kenyans with disabilities.
It ignited a call to action, urging all citizens to work together to dismantle these barriers and ensure that every individual has access to education, employment, healthcare, and other essential services.
