KARACHI: As a food delivery service rider, braving the rain and heavy traffic is a part of the job. However, a youth despite losing one arm seemed to go above and beyond.
Muhammad Fahad proved that his disability is no barrier to earning an honest living by carrying out his duties as a Foodpanda – food delivery service rider. Fahad works full-time as a food delivery man on his motorcycle.
Talking to M.M News, Muhammad Fahad said he wanted to prove that disability is not an impediment to earning an honest living. “My parents had always taught me that we should never beg. My father once said no matter if you earn Rs100 in the whole day, we will mange but never ask for money,” he added.
Speaking about his past, Fahad said he lost his hands in a car accident when he was two years old. He works 10 to 12 hours a day delivering food to customers. For Fahad, he never experienced any issues while doing his job and just used to it.
According to Fahad, the citizens always appreciate him for his work. “No matter how much traffic there is, by the grace of Allah I easily ride the motorcycle”, he pointed out.
He also wanted to change the perception that disabled people can’t work. For Fahad, it all depends on one’s will. “If you are hardworking person, you will see what a difference it makes,” he added.
