The Executive Secretary, National Commission For Persons With Disabilities (NCPWD), Mr James Lalu has promised total support for the blind Mechanic who has demonstrated exceptional skills in auto-mechanics in the last 29 years.
He pledged the support today when The National President, Nigeria Association of The Blind ( NAB), Comrade Stanley Onyebuchi presented the blind mechanic to the Executive Secretary on demand from him to see the mechanic.
He, therefore, assured that the Commission will help to establish a Mechanic Workshop for him before the end of the second quarter of the coming year.
He, however, informed of the Commission’s preparedness to honor Persons With Disabilities who have been exceptional in their daily lives with the awards of excellence on December 6th, 2023 in Abuja, during the forthcoming commemoration of the International Disability Day.
Recall that video of this blind mechanic displaying his skills went viral on social media recently.
