Abstract Emmanuel, a young man born in Ghana with a deformed leg, refused to beg to survive and instead persevered until he was able to get a job and raise money to achieve his dream, riding a bicycle 400 miles across Ghana to bring attention to the plight of disabled people. As a result of his efforts, the Parliament passed a Persons with Disabilities act and Emmanuel opened a school for students with disabilities.
