Osinbajo To Commission Facility For Garment Makers In Kogi, Delta

The federal government, through the National MSME Clinics, will tomorrow  inaugurate common area facilities for MSMEs in eight states across Nigeria.

This initiative reflects the government’s commitment to supporting small businesses and addressing production challenges in the country.

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo is scheduled to commission the projects which are part of the National MSMEs Shared Facility Scheme.

The projects include the installation of six hybrid Solar Systems in MSMEs clusters located in Nasarawa, Enugu, Borno, Adamawa, Ekiti, and Ondo States. Additionally, there will be the establishment of modern tailoring and fashion facilities in Delta and Kogi states.

The fashion hubs in Delta and Kogi are recognized as major centers for the fashion industry in the South-South and North-Central regions, respectively. The remaining six facilities were developed in collaboration with the respective state governments.
