Adebayo Gbadamosi, the chairman of the Kwara State branch of the National Association of Blind People in Nigeria, has said the high cost of Braille machines is affecting the education of the blind in the country.

Gbadamosi said in Ilorin that the machines were now very expensive for blind people to afford for their learning and working.

The chairman noted that parents of blind children could not afford the product that was currently being sold for N150,000 a set.

Gbadamosi said: “It is not easy for parents to get scholarship for our members and blind children because many come from poor families.http:///2l42fVn
