Disability is not inability - Stonebwoy

The 2015 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA) Artiste of the Year Stonebwoy born Livingstone Etse Satekla has disclosed that disability should never be a hindrance to stop one from achieving his or her dream.

With disappointment, Stonebwoy reminisces how people with disability are badly treated and neglected in the country.

According to the “Baafira” hit maker, the rights of persons with disability are not well enforced in Ghana thus making it difficult for the disabled to mingle with people.

He said that though he is physically challenged with his leg, that situation did not stop him from achieving his dream in life.

He made this known in an interview with Peace FM’s Akwasi Aboagye on Peace Entertainment Review pointing out his excitement about his victory over the weekend at the 2015 VGMA.

“Ever since I had an accident at the Tema Motorway, my leg had never been perfect. But I said to myself I will make it no matter the situation”, he stated.

Reggae Dancehall Artiste of the year at the 2015 VGMA added that he believes persistence and hard work can help him make it to the top.

Stonebwoy, who was adjudged the Vodafone Ghana Music Award (VGMA) Artiste of the Year 2015, competed for the prestigious award with other great musicians in Ghana including Sarkodie, Daddy Lumba, Edem and E.L. to climax a good year in his music career.
