Disbursing the cash at Yakurr Council Guest House in Ugep, the lawmaker stated that the financial empowerment was to commemorate this year’s International Women’s Day and to demonstrate his unwavering commitment to change the socioeconomic status of women in his constituency.

He said that the money would help to cushion the effect of economic hardship, which was already crippling most small and medium scale businesses.

Omini, who is the chairman of the House of Assembly Committee on Finance and Appropriation, underscored the importance of creating a conducive atmosphere for women to thrive and succeed in their various fields of endeavour.

“In line with the ‘People First’ mantra of Cross River State Governor, Senator (Prince) Bassey Edet Otu, and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, the women empowerment is vital in addressing social, economic and political challenges and make them self-reliant,” he stated.
