Foremost thespian and United Nations Ambassador, Halima Abubakar has said that assisting disabled persons and kids in Nigeria and Africa is her priority.

Under the auspices of her Halima Abubakar Foundation (HAF), the actress recently reached out to over 2,000 disabled persons and kids in Abuja where she donated food items, wheelchairs, crutches and other relief items to the beneficiaries.

She noted that for many years, HAF has been reaching out to hundreds of people in need, and it is her priority to focus on doing more, promising that the corporate social responsibility gestures will continue across Nigeria and Africa.

Abubakar noted that her foundation will partner with appropriate agencies and authorities to help in eradicating the scourge of discrimination facing people with disabilities, and empower them to fulfil their dreams.

“The stories of many of these people living with disabilities are quite touching. While some of them were born with disabilities, others are mere victims of circumstances that could have been avoided. I’m glad that most of them are not giving up on their dreams, and it is our responsibility to assist in making it a reality. Indeed, there’s an ability in disability.
