In support of Governor Biodun Oyebanji’s commitment to children with disabilities, Senate Leader Opeyemi Bamidele has donated two mini-buses, two motorcycles, and 25 wheelchairs to the Therapy Centre for Children with Disabilities, Ado-Ekiti.
The items were received Friday by Special Adviser on Special Education and Social Inclusion, Princess Adetoun Agboola, during a visit with the Governor.
“I will prioritize this as my number one constituency project for 2026… by God’s grace, we will commence work here next year,” Bamidele said, pledging to fund a bigger centre with his N1.5 billion budget.
Governor Oyebanji earlier noted, “We currently have 70 children, but due to a lack of space, we must attend to them in batches.”
Princess Agboola affirmed the Centre’s service to children with cerebral palsy, autism, and severe disabilities. She thanked both leaders, stating the donations would significantly enhance transportation and therapy access for the growing number of children.
