“This initiative aims to empower young people in the state to become entrepreneurs and job creators,” Asemakaha said.

He further said that the current initiatives of the company were aimed at redirecting Benue youths into the business ecosystem.

“Even though the state has multi-sectoral challenges, Gov. Hyacinth Alia has headhunted technocrats like me who are fixing it and redirecting the state economy to take its original place.

“Jobs lost from 2014 to 2023 are pegged at 907,676 in the Small and Medium Scale Enterprises (SMEs) sector. This administration is able to reverse the negative growth from -3.2 to positive just within one year.

“Output has to exceed population growth going forward, though presently, our output growth is low in relation to population growth.

“That is why we are coming up with effective strategies and policies to create an enabling environment for businesses to thrive.

“Such policies include the Benue State Inclusive Economy Policy, the Benue State Policy on Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises, and the Benue State Industrial and Trade Policy, among others,” he said.
