The Nigeria society for the Blind is a school giving hope to people with Visual impairment through craft and 21st century skills. The INGA team was there to conduct a needs assessment on Digital skills required by students in the school. Hope exists afterall

Good security at the entrance who also cleans the surrounding of leaves dropping from the trees. A computer Centre turned into a cafe and later closed because of power supply issues. A state of the art library donated by philanthropists. A new air-conditioned (with backup fans) computer Centre with capable devices (mostly laptops) accompanied by a good instructor. Ramps at the entrance of buildings to recognise closeness and need to climb steps. Theres a presence of the state of the art music studio. Neat and well maintained hostels donated by the society. Classrooms for learning including advanced executive class for professionals.

The Federal Nigeria Society for the Blind is a good place.I was brought back to earth when I saw the level of people there.People who couldnt see but were doing great things.From bead making to coding classes to executive programs, this place has it all and gives hope and more importantly, knowledge to the blind.At the meetup we had there, I felt that the place didnt have accessibility entrance so I spoke to the director and he said the stairs were specially created for the blind people so they can denote where they are at every point in time.Really nice place

A rehabilitation centre for the virtually impaired. They offer 2years courses, lectures are taken in classes just as obtainable in any given institution. They have skills acquisition programs, there is a computer training centre inside Inlaks Library within the premises. The compound is big with good landscape and beautification. The roads to the classes and centres within this facility is supported by handrails, ropes and steps to facilitate the movement of the blinds.

Im really impressed with what the staff at this centre are doing despite the little resources available and the infrastructures that needs upgrade. They have 2 years programme for those who have not been to school and a year programme for those who have. There is computer lab, vocational centre where students are learning crafts and music studio where they learn music. The members of staff are very professional and passionate about what they do. They trains the students on accessibility for the visually impaired.

Ok
