On 4th February 2021, Sokoine University of Agriculture (SUA) management through its Housing and Accommodation Bureau (SUAHAB) has provided two wheelchairs worth Tanzanian Shillings 560,000 to two students with a disability challenge.
According to the dean of students, Mr. Pule Motshabi, the main purpose of the university management to provide such assistance was to give those students a friendly environment that would help to achieve their hopes and dreams. He said the wheelchair will enable them to move around the campus easily.
Speaking after receiving the equipment, Mr. Abelnego Fabian who is a third-year student pursuing a BSc degree in animal science thanked the university management for the support which will greatly facilitate them in various matters including moving from one place to another within and outside campus.
