Let’s break down the stigma attached to disability one conversation at a time. Join me on the brand new Clubhouse show, ‘Views From Below’ on the @afropolitan network Tuesday, Feb. 16th at 8pm WAT.

Disability never has to mean inability.

Disability is often a stigmatised taboo topic in the Nigerian society. It is misunderstood, misinterpreted and misconstrued. The truth is, one in 10 Nigerians are classified as disabled. Which means, it is quite conceivable that someone you know is disabled.

[Cub Of The West @DebolaDaniel]

One of the most frustrating things about being disabled in Nigeria, is everyone believes they have a divine call to heal you.

Everywhere I go, “I command you to get up in the name of Jesus”.

Then that awkward moment of staring at each other.

Why you gon make God look bad?

[Diary of a Disabled Person🍉 @WheelerDax]

Things #disabled doesn't mean: lazy, attention-seeking, liar, fraud, unmotivated, unemployable, unloveable, incapable, incompetent, entitled, rude, inspirational, warrior, heroic, brave.

Things disabled does mean: I am disabled.

Mr. Soldier Man https://t.co/Ah75ZIrI86 @deboladanielfdn ....that Onitsha incident makes no sense...share till their bosses see it...

[Debola Daniel FDN @deboladanielfdn]

This is a shame. Unacceptable. Unjust. Unlawful and an embarrassment. https://t.co/Stk4o2uDIb

Soldiers beat up a disabled man in Onitsha and threw away his wheelchair because he wore a camo outfit. #Nigeria. Credit - Instablog.

The security doors in Nigerian Banks need to be rethought. An average wheelchair is too wide to get into banks.

[Debola Daniel FDN @deboladanielfdn]

If there is one sector that has consistently failed in providing access for disabled citizens, it's the Nigerian Banks.

All I want is someone to bless me with a new wheelchair ♿. Thank you.
