Gradually we are getting closer to the major purpose of the PARA-Pavilion and Power-lifting column of your darling Platform. I always feel highly elated and inspired coming to interface with my wonderful family, a community of barrier breakers and change makers. I welcome you in a grand style. Yesoooo!
To you my
very enthusiastic, inspirational and supportive Able-body members of the public,
in particular those that have consistently been shooting from all arsenals to
ensure that the Disability community in Nigeria, is giving a pride of place, I
cannot not thank you enough. At the appropriate time and place, names will be
mentioned. May be, who knows, one day we shall organize Award presentations and
offer deserving individuals and groups due recognition for their various roles
towards building this community of game changers, over comers and committed
contributors to nation building and development.
For those who have not supported our struggle, there are no qualms. We appreciate you too. That you have not supported us does not mean you won’t do so tomorrow. Now that things are the way they are, your non-supportive roles as individuals and groups have gone a very long way to build and strengthen us. Who knows without the huddles arising from your non supportive posture, most of us may not have attained the level of result we have presently; and without such attainment obviously we wouldn’t have been reckoned with. I am optimistic that many of the people who are not supporting the PWDS at the moment will be ardent champions of our course in the future. As we continue to strive in our endevours, a time shall come when we will post the kind of result that will appeal to the non-supportive people, and surely at this point their support will manifest glaringly, strategically and systematic. I belief that some people are not supporting simply because they feel nothing can come out of such support, since to them the PWDs cannot achieve anything in life. For sure they do not hate the PWDs.
It is for such reasons and others similar to them that the PARA-Sports Pavilion and the Power-lifting column
are created, to aggregate some of the achievements of the PWDs in Sports, and
other areas of life, in both local and international outings. The results surely
are huge, heartwarming and some internationality acclaimed, and recognized. These
results and many more that will still be won, I belief strongly, will change some
of the behavior people portray when dealing with the PWDs. Many of such people will
be moved even, on their own volition, to become ardent in their support of the
PWDs.
The National
Sports Festival which held in Delta State, produced some heartwarming
developments for PARA-sports that I will be sharing with you in the later days. My dearly
beloved PARA-Sportsmen and women, coaches and members of the technical crew,
supporters of para-sports and those that watch and cheer their favourite
sporting individuals and teams as they perform, let us take this gathering very
serious and ensure we assemble in large number. Invite others, share your views
and suggestions and contribute in any other ways you find proper or expedient. Just
do something positive. Let’s build what is our own.
I promise
to make every moment shared on this platform educating, informative, fun and entertainment
driven. It’s gonna be memorable and enriching. Opportunities for business will
be opened as I plan to bring on board experts that will build our capacity and
prepare us to take advantage of the opportunities the environment is throwing
up… prepare to key in. Keep visiting and reading … we appreciate the
time spent and interest shown in us
