ABUJA – President Mohammadu Buhari on Monday appointed Dr. Samuel Inalegwu Ode Ankeli his Senior Special Assistant.
Ankeli, a visually impaired man is charged with the responsibility of dealings with persons living with disabilities.
A statement by the presidential spokesman, Mallam Garba Shehu stated that the appointee was a former campaigner and also “headed the Directorate of Persons With Disability at the Buhari/Osinbajo APC presidential campaign headquarters, the first of any such department in a political party in Nigeria.”
The statement added that “He led a team that successfully mobilized a large number of the more that 24 million disabled persons in the country to support the APC candidate and his running mate in the 2015 presidential election campaign.”
“Ankeli hails from Benue State. He went to school in Giwa, near Zaria and Kaduna before reading veterinary medicine at the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria.
“He worked with the Benue State government before quitting to give time to his activist role in the promotion of the wellbeing of the blind and people with all kinds of disability.
“He leads a very active religious and sporting life. He is married and has children.”

Is not bad, in as much he can performs his duties and responsibilities . The most important thing is that his brain can think faster than some non-challenge humans.

Kudos to him.

if you said so, that means he deserves some favours from the president and there is nothing bad in it. Let just said he s lucky cos some who worked for the president during election and not all got the appointment or favour from him. Cheers.
