The programme was jointly organised with the Bauchi State Agency for Persons with Disabilities and supported beneficiaries with N44 million to enhance their economic independence.

The state governor, Bala Mohammed, represented by the State Head of Civil Service, Barr Muhammad Sani Umar, said the state is committed to improving the welfare of persons with disabilities and ensuring their inclusion in all empowerment and development initiatives.

“This empowerment is not just training; it is a strategy to end street begging by giving persons with disabilities the tools to live with dignity,” he said.

He said that applicants with special needs who applied for the 2025 state recruitment exercise would be considered for inclusion.
