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

Dancehall artiste, Stonebwoy who won the Artiste of the Year award at the just ended 2015 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA) has stated that disability should never be a hindrance to stop one from achieving his or her goals.

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

“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 said.

The “Baafira” hit maker said this in an interview with Peace FM’s Akwasi Aboagye on Peace Entertainment Review.

With disappointment, he talked about how people with disability are badly treated and neglected in the country stating that, the rights of persons with disability are not well enforced in Ghana thus making it difficult for the disabled to mingle with people

Stonebwoy, who also won the Dancehall Artiste of the year at the 2015 VGMA talked about his excitement over his victory on the night. He said that, he believes persistence and hard work can help him make it to the top.

He competed for the prestigious award of the Artist of the year with other great musicians including Sarkodie, Daddy Lumba and Edem.
