Good day house.

please can anyone recommend a special needs school in Nigeria. My niece is a special needs child with developmental problems. Although i haven't seen her (i don't reside in 9ja), i have been told she is dumb and crippled. Her mother took her younger sister away and abandoned this girl outside my mom's house. Unfortunately, my mother though still employed cannot give this girl the care she needs because my mum also has her own health issues.

So if anyone can recommend a special needs school Boarding/day that we can enroll this girl in i would really appreciate it. A school that isn't too expensive as i would be the one footing this girl's needs and it is VERY rich through Christ. However if its only expensive schools you know, please drop the names and possible contact details so that i can have an idea of what i would be dealing with.
She's 7 years old, and whilst i welcome schools across 9ja, i would prefer schools within the middle belt axis because that's where my family are based.

thank you.

I would appreciate if the MOD's can put this front page just so i can get responses please.

What's exactly is the child's diagnosis. It matters when searching for a school. There is a school for children with special needs in delta State. It is run by foreign women married to Nigerian men. I believe it is in Warri

Their services seem to cover a wide range. I am not sure that they have the boarding school option yet. I think that is a work in progress.

U can also try out Do-estdot Group of Schools, Idimu. Its a school for all types of Physically Challanged Kids.

thank you all for your responses, however sadly, i think i may have to resort to home schooling for her as the cities these schools are located are completely out of her base (she resides in Jos). so please if any one knows any qualified teachers in Sign language that can home school, pls let me know

i have posted a vacancy in the Job section. Thank you All
