The Federal Government has empowered 500 women in Ogun State with grinding machines, deep freezers, generators, and other equipment under the Renewed Hope Initiative of President Bola Tinubu.
The programme, held at the Presidential Lodge, Abeokuta, was aimed at boosting small-scale enterprises and strengthening household income.
Represented by Mrs. Taiwo Bello, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Sustainable Development Goals, Princess Adejoke Orelope-Adefulire, said the initiative seeks to unlock potential, promote economic independence, and create opportunities for women across the country.
Wife of the State Governor and Coordinator of the Initiative, Mrs. Bamidele Abiodun, commended the First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, for bridging critical gaps in women’s empowerment.
The Commissioner for Women Affairs also described the programme as timely, urging beneficiaries to make good use of the items to achieve self-reliance and community development.
