SO INSPIRING! Meet The Nigerian Senator Who Is Physically Challenged (Has One Hand)

Despite the seeming ‘odd’ of having just one hand, Senator Nneji Athan Achonu realized his dreams of becoming a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as he was sworn into office alongside his colleagues yesterday June 9th.

Popularly referred to as the one armed general, he campaigned, contested and won the election for Senator representing Okigwe Senatorial zone of Imo State. He is 56 years old, married with children.

Professor Hawkins is doing well from his wheelchair. A deaf lady, Helen Keller developed sign language. There  are thousands of DISABLED people ( the term "physically challenged" sounds silly) who are  contributing POSITIVELY to their communities.

Why should disabled Nigerians  be any different?
