TAF Africa, in its commitment to promoting disability inclusion, held a town hall meeting held on Tuesday, August 19, 2025, for Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) in Oshimili South Local Government Area.

The event took place at the Professor Chike Edozien Secretariat and brought together disability advocates, government officials, and community leaders to discuss practical ways of ensuring that PWDs are not left behind in governance and development.

In the interactive session, PWDs openly shared the challenges they face in accessing opportunities and participating fully in society. While acknowledging these concerns, Dr. Andrew Adaji, representing TAF Africa, explained that the organization operates with limited funding and cannot directly solve all the issues raised. However, he assured participants that their complaints would be documented and taken to the appropriate authorities for necessary action.

Participants at the meeting welcomed the initiative, describing it as a vital step towards bridging the gap between PWDs and government institutions. Stakeholders also called for sustained advocacy to ensure that inclusion remains at the heart of Delta State’s development agenda.
