TQM Report,
The Director of the relatively young NGO “Persons with Disabilities Vanguard” Mr Ukange Sebastian, a teacher with Nasarawa State Government, writer and stunch advocate of Disability Inclusion on 31st May, 2021 donated copies of one of his publications: Laughter of the Dead to the school to be used as prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd positions in the forth coming examinations as a motivation for them to study hard.
The play is structured on education as a sustainable tool for restitution of the PWDs for ability in disability as a central theme.
In his address to the deaf pupils and staff interpreting in sign language by Mrs. Victoria Alamu, one of the coordinators of the NGO, the director gave example of many history makers with disabilities and himself and assured the deaf that with education, they would be able to live well meaning lives for themselves and the society.
In his response, the head teacher appreciated the gesture saying since the inception of the school, they have not had such impactful visit and called on the NGO to always visit them with this kind of encouragement.
The occassion was garnished with jubilating pupils on the presentations of the items.
The NGO is currently planning a project to mobilize out of school children with diabilities to go school in Keffi and its environs and also check the abnoxiuous menace of street begging by young children with disabilities.
“We are new, we have support, not local not foreign but we have tall passion. Disability is not lack of ability but special powerful abilities.
We are only persons with disabilities but not failures in life. Making the society understand this is our diehard mission.
