About

Ms. Tobiloba Ajayi

Tobiloba has over 12 years of experience working with various organizations in the Disability Management sector in different countries. She holds a degree in Law and was called to the Nigerian Bar in 2008. She also holds a Masters's Degree in International Law.

She started by working on Disability Policy as a member of the Nigerian Vision 2020; policy drafting team, and went on to work with various NGOs in a quest to improve the lives of persons with disabilities.

In March 2017, she launched The Let Cerebral Palsy Kids Learn Foundation to promote inclusive mainstream education for children with Cerebral Palsy in Nigeria. This was born out of a realization in 2016 during her Mandela Washington Fellowship, Professional Development Experience that children with Cerebral Palsy were being excluded from mainstream education by the school system in Nigeria. To date, the Foundation has provided support to 450+ children and their families and enabled 95+ of these children to access inclusive education. Each family accesses continuous counselling, referrals, school placement supports and school readiness assessments. The project has also trained over 500 teachers in its bid to address the knowledge and skills gap of mainstream classroom teachers to engage children with Cerebral Palsy in their classrooms.
