@ellaAkinola @Project_Enable @OpeoluAkinola @opeoluakinola tweets: A national commission for persons with disabilities directly under the presidency is an effective way of ensuring that the law is sustainably implemented. Entrenching funding guidelines for its programmes is another plus. @Project_Enable #DisabilityBillNGR

@Project_Enable @OpeoluAkinola @OpeoluAkinola tweets: The accessibility standards are not specified in the law leaving room for error in implementation, E.G. acceptable elevation angles of ramps and specific practices of the specific disability types. Inclusion in education is vague. #DisabilityBillNGR
