This is not my first visit but it’s my first time to explore the accessibility features available here in this shopping mall. I have not written many accessibility posts aa well but I have a few. Here you go anyway. All the accessibility champions on the forum.
It’s the best shopping place we have in Port Harcourt city,Rivers State of Nigeria. I often visit the place for shopping and other leisure activities. Aside shopping places,it does have restaurants,cinemas etc. On this mini accessibility walk I realised that it has other accessibility features that I never realised. Right from the entrance there is very wide ramp.
On my visit today I realised that it had accessible restrooms. I felt happy about that. Accessibility is gradually gaining grounds in west Africa. I will plan to lookout for more features on my travels around.
I posted some of these photos on Google maps as well. Aside the accessibility features there are also clearly marked signs for directions. I just like the set up in general. Just to share these with you all.
@SholaIB It’s fantastic to see such attention to inclusivity in public spaces, especially in a bustling city like Port Harcourt. The fact that you’ve taken the time to explore and highlight these features is so important for raising awareness.
This is interesting to note. I have seen accessible toilets only a few times in Lagos. One was in a coworking space I paid for in 2021 and another in Eko Hotel.
The more attention we pay to these things, the more we see them around I guess.
Thanks for sharing @SholaIB . Will look for more of accessible place in the future
