The two agencies are saddled with managing crises situation in the country.
Anyaele made the remark on Wednesday in Lagos in a presentation at a Humanitarian Summit, organised by the Gani Adams Foundation (GAF).
A copy of the presentation was made available to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja.
The theme of the summit is ``Improving the Living Conditions of the Poor, the Less Privileged and Physically Challenged during Crises in Nigeria.’
Anyaele said that the non-prohibition of discrimination on the basis of disability in the nation’s constitution had continued to propel the neglect and exclusion of persons with disabilities (PWDs).
He said the neglect was notable in disaster preparedness planning, emergency situations and immediate rehabilitation measures, post-disaster reconstruction and development measures by stakeholders in disaster management.
``Observation from camps set up for Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) throughout the federation show that they are not accessible for PWDs.
``No policy framework to carter for the physically challenged, blind, deaf and persons with intellectual disability,’’ he said.
He noted that these lapses had continued to expose this group of Nigerians to uncommon hardship, agony and sometimes to untimely death.
He declared that under crises situations as being faced by Nigeria from different fronts, it is vulnerable groups like women, children, persons with disabilities and the aged that suffer the most.
``This is because they are usually too weak, poor, voiceless and helpless to have access to emergency response that is made available by government, development institutions and individuals.
``In humanitarian emergency situations, persons with disabilities are amongst the most vulnerable groups of society and tend to be disproportionately affected by the impacts of crises.
``At the same time, they often remain ‘invisible’, even though their number makes more than ten per cent of any population,’’ he said.
Anyaele called on state agencies and partners in emergency management to take appropriate steps to identify persons living with disability and ensure their inclusion in the planning for support to IDPs.
He also urged them to take adequate measure to ensure that relief materials and other support to displaced persons were distributed without discrimination against persons living with disability.
``They should ensure that all mechanism for data capturing and impact assessment is designed to reflect the needs of persons living with different forms of disability,’’ he said.
