I thank Princess Adetoun Agboola for bringing this to our attention. However, l will suggest that Princess Agboola should impress on Ekiti State government to make the registration process accessible by creating an office at each local government area.
Making such reasonable adjustment will enable poor people with disabilities, particularly those with mobility impairment to benefit from the scheme.
Thanks for your attention.
