In its continuous bid to empower Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Nigeria, President Bola Tinubu has directed the disbursement of a federal government grant of N150,000 each to business owners in Enugu State.

This is just as Vice President Kashim Shettima commissioned Nigeria’s largest Ultra-Modern MSME Fashion Hub in Enugu State, saying President Tinubu’s commitment to creating a business environment that provides incentives and opportunities to transform MSMEs into formidable enterprises is unyielding.

According to Vice president’s Spokesman, Stansted Nkwocha, Senator Shettima disclosed the disbursement of the federal government grant on Thursday when he also launched the 5th Expanded National MSME Clinic in Enugu State.

Earlier in his address, Enugu State Governor, Dr Peter Mbah, who commended the the federal government for its unwavering support to Enugu State, affirmed that the entrepreneurial initiatives aligns with the state’s economic vision.

In his remarks, the Minister of Innovation, Science and Technology, Chief Uche Nnaji, who emphasised the importance of entrepreneurship training, also announced the commencement of a training programme for shoemakers across the country, this in order to address unemployment rate in the country.

The Expanded National MSME Clinics is one of the federal government’s strategies for ease of doing business in Nigeria through a series of business fora organized across the country to provide on-the-spot solutions to challenges confronting MSMEs, with the first, second, third and fourth editions launched in Benue, Ogun, Ekiti and Jigawa States respectively earlier this year.
