Why Isaac Yeboah plans to drive from Accra to Lagos
Yeboah highlighted the pressing issue of inadequate integration of persons with special needs into both Ghanaian and African societies, emphasising the multitude of challenges they face.
Through his remarkable journey, he aspires to draw attention to these issues and ignite a much-needed dialogue on the subject.
Speaking passionately about his own experiences, Yeboah noted,
"For example, I am able to drive but because I have special needs and use a wheelchair, it was a big challenge trying to get a driver's license in Ghana. There are a lot of other people like me who are able to drive but do not have the license to do so. People with special needs must be able to have access to lots of facilities because it's a human condition."
Isaac Yeboah candidly shared that he is currently seeking sponsorship to execute this remarkable feat and drive his advocacy forward.
He expressed his openness to collaboration with any organisation or individual interested in supporting his cause.
