The Adamawa State Governor, Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri, has disbursed cash to micro-business owners in Adamawa State.
The disbursement was made on Friday at Ribadu Square through the Poverty Alleviation and Wealth Creation Agency (PAWECA) for easy access to those in need.
Finitiri distributed the sum of N50,000 to each of the 10,000 microbusiness owners to raise productivity and enable the expansion of business ventures.
He highlighted the pledge of his administration to empower entrepreneurs and alleviate poverty in a competitive market, which led to the decision to allocate the cash grants.
He added that he is aware of the difficulties facing microbusiness owners, from limited access to capital to insufficient resources and infrastructure.
He implores all stakeholders—government agencies, civil society organizations, and the private sector—to work closely to assist microbusiness owners in achieving success.
