The president of the Club, Rotarian Oro-ghene Adia during the empowerment said the programme aims to equip women with the knowledge and tools necessary to manage their finances effectively, make informed decisions, and improve their economic stability.

Adia disclosed this at the Community Economic Development Project at Jahi 2, Abuja, tagged Savings For Growth: Women and Youth Economic Empowerment Project. He said that through the VSLA model, participants will learn how to save, borrow, and invest wisely, enabling them to build a more secure financial future.

According to him, the programme also fosters a sense of community and cooperation among the women and men, providing a supportive environment for them to share experiences and advice.

He hinted that by empowering women and young men with financial literacy, the Rotary Club of Abuja Ministers Hill hopes to contribute to the Jahi community’s economic development and improve its residents’ overall well-being.

“The initiative is part of the club’s ongoing efforts to promote service, leadership, and community engagement.”

The president-elect of the Rotary Club of Ministers Hill, Adams Oyarekhua, said the initiative aims to equip community members with skills in their specialised areas, such as tailoring, hairdressing, or mechanics.

“We’ll provide training and financial support to help them launch their businesses, and routinely check in on their progress”.

He said, “Our goal is to empower them to stand independently, teaching them how to sustain their businesses rather than just providing temporary solutions.

“We’re also introducing a Village Savings and Loan program, which will enable them to save and access funds for their businesses.

“This program will help them manage their finances effectively, save from their profits, and access loans when needed. By empowering these young entrepreneurs, we hope to create a lasting impact in the community.”

Also, Rotarian Rabi Mohammed, President of RC Abuja Urban and President of Presidents of Rotary Clubs in the FCT praised the initiative, highlighting the importance of investing money to generate returns.

She explained that participants would benefit from their contributions, citing an example where a 2,000 Naira investment could yield N2,100.

“I believed this program is particularly beneficial for small traders who need modest investments to grow their businesses.”

One of the participants in the economic empowerment training, Stella Eka, expressed gratitude to the Rotary Club for bringing such an initiative to their community.

She noted that the training on savings and financial management, coupled with a startup token, will significantly benefit their small businesses.

Also, Sulaiman Sabo Muktal, a car painter and participant in the training, expressed appreciation for the opportunity to learn about savings and financial management.

He stated that he would take the training seriously going forward, apply the knowledge to make more savings, and ultimately boost his business.
