He quoted the governor as directing the commissioner for education, Alhaji Sanusi Saidu-Kiru, to post the visually impaired person to Tudun Maliki Special education school.
“You are a real model, whose visual impairment does not stand as a stumbling block to your development. You have been taking the right step in your life.
“The Kano state government is giving you automatic employment of teaching. And I have directed the state Commissioner for Education to post you to Tudun Maliki Special Education School,” the statement quoted the governor as saying.
