ABSTRACT

The necessity to improve the plight of the physically challenged in Enugu State gave rise to the assessment of the services of the centre for the rehabilitation of the physically challenged persons in Enugu State. It is worthy to note that this thesis is specifically tailored to appraise the performance of the centre and ascertain the extent to which these services have promoted the overall welfare and wellbeing of the inmates of the centre.  Moreso, this study strives to unravel various besetting the general operations of the centre. This study made specific recommendations that could improve the services of the centre vis-à-vis the development of the inmates. Essentially, this research work is divided into five chapters, so as to articulate and analyze all the major issues involved in the rehabilitation of the physically challenged in Enugu State.

 

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1   Background to the Study

The quest for the rehabilitation of the physically challenged has always been a major concern and challenge to many governments in different countries of the world especially among the African Nations. Every human society is undoubtedly faced with enormous problems of daily provision of certain services to its teaming populace. Rehabilitation of the physically challenged people on Nigeria has become an increasing societal problems basically because of ineffective social policy. According to Isaac (2004), the physically challenged in Nigeria have bee confronted by chronic problems which often incapacitate their social and emotional development. In his words, the physically challenged are those who have non-sensory physical limitations, that is not because of sense organs like eyes or ears, but because of other organs like limbs, bones, joints, or muscles studies have shown widespread lack of adequate and sustainable care for the physically challenged in Nigeria society (Shamer, 2002). These problems facing the physically challenged in Enugu State are sequel to lack of inter-sectoral approach towards their plight. The need to improve the welfare and wellbeing of the physically challenged in our society led to the establishment of Emene Rehabilitation centre, whose sole mandate is to ensure complete and unconditional rehabilitation of the physically challenged. But one basic question that should be of concern to every Nigerian is how the government has faired in providing supportive services to these people and to what extent has the Enugu State Rehabilitation centre rendered its services to the physically challenged? The centre mentioned above was established to render services to earn a living and contribute to the development of the society to which they are members.

However, it is regrettable that the centre has performed below expectation. In essence, this research study is designed to thoroughly and meticulously do an assessment of the services of the physically challenged in Enugu State Rehabilitation Centre. This is necessary if we really want to appreciate the plight of the physically challenged and improve their standard of living. This will create an enabling environment and provide a platform for the formulation of feasible socio-economic policies aimed at enhancing the overall status of the physically challenged in our society particularly in Enugu State. Most Nigerian children who are physically challenged would contribute meaningfully to society in all spheres of life if they are rehabilitated and reintegrated into the society.

1.2      Statement of the Problem

Over the years, there have been series of social policies by successive governments in the country which were designed to guarantee meaningful and sustainable development of every member of Nigerian society. Most of the target goals failed owing to ineffective framework as well as unfaithful implementation of the policies. There are millions of Nigeria people who have been victims of this unfortunate circumstance following their physical limitations. They are always confronted with the problem of developing under rehabilitating economic, social or psychological conditions as many wallow in crises because of high level and rate of poverty in the society.

In Nigeria, the government ha designed child legislations and child welfare services as means of reducing the problem of the Nigeria children. There are lots of child legislations that stipulate the social welfare services that are provided to children in Nigeria. It is one thing to stipulate child welfare services, and another thing to provide the services to the children as stated in the legislations and policies. Looking at the Nigeria children who are supposed to be the direct beneficiaries of these child welfare services, one may actually provide especially to the physically challenged in Enugu State.

This work is basically tailored to elaborate on the welfare services of the physically challenged in the rehabilitation centre Emene in Enugu State. The researcher is set to appraise the services of the centre so as to establish whether the centre actually provide its services to the physically challenged in State. In other words, this research work will determine the factors that impede or promote the operations and performance of the centre. Effective rehabilitation of the physically challenged in Nigeria and Enugu State in particular has become a global issue in the contemporary time.
