Autism Awareness Seminar in Lafia, Nassarawa State, Nigeria


The Emmanuel Igoniwari Foundation, a Non-Governmental Organisation in Nigeria, organised a seminar/lecture on Autism Awareness in Lafia, Nassarawa State on 27 March 2013. I was there to speak on Autism. The event was covered as shown in the following photographs.

Some of the audience actually had either a child or a relative living with Autism, but my attention was drawn to the keen interest exhibited by the attendees in general.  I was very delighted that my answers to some of their questions gave them renewed hope and even inspired others to seek to know more about Autism and other special needs that people cope with.
