Sampling methods were purposive (quota sampling) for study areas, and interviewee selection.

Results have shown that, there is inadequate infrastructures for students with disabilities and those available are not in immaculate condition. Furthermore lack of adequate and quality infrastructures had contributed to bad academic performance to students with disabilities. Bad conditioned and inadequate infrastructural facilities directly contributed to negative psychological responses. From the study findings, it is suggested that Government should rethink on building design that could accommodate the needs of students with disabilities, instead of adopting special education system in schools that were not primarily constructed for students with disabilities the government should at least build one special needs secondary school in every region or zones, it should also provide enough special education personnel and capacity building, teachers seminars on teacher-student relationship and follow up should be a must thing, schools system should take direct measures on infrastructural related things that could smoothen learning environment, health and psychology that are within their range.
