Another beneficiary, Mrs Enahoro Elizabeth in Sakponba Road axis, said the grant has given a facelift to her business.
“You don’t know what this support really means to a petty trader like me? I sell oranges, cocoyam, and garri, and with the rise in prices of commodities in the market, restocking was a problem. But with this grant, I have been to the market to restock and am ready to go into the season and make better profit. I thank the Governor and Access Bank for coming through for me and my family.”
Also, a widow in Amagba Community, Mrs Osemwingie Dora said she intends to use the grant to support her firewood business, adding “I received my own N10,000 today and I intend to channel it into my firewood business. Considering the rise in the price of cooking gas, I envisaged a boom in our firewood business but didn’t have money, because I feed my family from this my small business.
“And today God has used Governor Obaseki to answer my prayers. I thank the governor for always putting the people at the forefront of every programme embarked upon by the government. Widows in Edo are specifically proud of him.”All rights reserved.
