The Executive Director/CEO of the institution, Professor Lateef Babatunde Ayeleru, has assured that the institution would include persons with disabilities in its programs and activities and ensure that school buildings are accessible to them.

This was disclosed to a group of people with disabilities who were on a cutesy visit to his office on February 3, 2025, in the campus at Badagry, Lagos State. 

He also stated that the institution would establish a disability desk for persons with disabilities. Additionally, he assured that the institution would construct ramps around key buildings and affirmed its commitment to increasing support for the disability community across Badagry.

Ayeleru said, "You mentioned in your speech the need to comply with the Lagos State Special People's Law and the Nigerian Disability Act. We will look for both laws, study them, and ensure compliance and implementation.

"I’d like to thank you again for considering me worthy of this award. It is not the size of the award that matters.

"What truly matters is the spirit behind it—the thought of giving back. It is profound, deeply meaningful, and truly magnetic in my sight. I appreciate it, and it is dear to my heart. I want to assure you that I will treasure it. I also want to assure you that it will become a part of my CV," he said.
