O’uniform: 3000 Tailors, 5000 Market Women Benefit From Osun’s Unification Poli by jr4u2(m): 6:58am On Feb 27, 2017
At least, 3,000 tailors and 5,000 market women have benefitted from the State of Osun uniform unification policy since it was introduced in 2012.

This was revealed by the manager of Omoluabi Garments Factory, Osogbo, Mr. Ayobami Fatai. He stated this whilst speaking with journalists over the weekend that Omoluabi Garment Factory is saddled with the local production of Osun School Uniforms while the State of Osun works with the factory to ensure the prices are controlled and affordable.

It was gathered that the factory also act as a hub to train tailors in the state for free. The manager says thousands of residents in the state have passed through the system, learning how to sow, while also earning at the same time.

He further revealed that the factory also partners with the local association of textiles sellers (Egbe Alaso) to supply the uniforms to the market. So far, the factory has partnered with 5,000 of them. With a down payment of 10% of total value of Uniforms to be collected, the textile sellers get the uniforms in bulk and payment is spread throughout the course of selling.

As at February 2017, at least, the sum of N120mn has been made as profits by the textile sellers through the sale of subsidized school uniforms alone.

The programme which is in its 5th year, has so far being subsidized to the tune of N800m, in addition to the initial N900m seed investment by the government into the business to guarantee the production and sale of 750,000 pieces of uniforms which the government distributed to students across the state for free at the inception of the programme.

Omoluabi Garment Factory, reportedly one of the biggest garment factory in West Africa, is a thriving Private Public Business Partnership between the government of the state of Osun and Sam & Sara Garments Limited. The company now produces Uniforms for the Nigerian Military, Guarantee Trust Bank (GTB), Lagos Internal Revenue Service (LIRS), among several others.

Speaking on the unification policy, former Commissioner for Commerce, Co-Op & Empowerment in the state, Mr. Jayeoba Alagbada, said the unification of school uniforms is part of an effort by the State of Osun to create a unique identity for students, promote culture and stimulate the local economy. He stated that the innovation ensures uniformity and engenders a unified sense of belonging among all government owned public primary and secondary school pupils in the state.

I am certainly not a fan of this goatee Governor, but on this one, he nailed it. Increasing the local content in government expenditure will boost the local economy with jobs, reduced poverty and entrepreneurship. Kudos to this programme.

Believe Aregberascal and his Association of ProgreTHIEF Criminals, APC propaganda at your risk & peril, Oga.
Have you asked yourself why he owes salary for 18 months yet doing these shagbe-loju-yoyo, cheap & cheerful stunts
What happened to the Opon Imo that he launched with fanfare after he scammed Osun people of billions with his son, Kabiru?

I don't think you need to be replied. From your comment, its obvious you didn't even read the title. Point of correction, this is State of Osun and not Oyo State.

Do they even sound alike to you?

Sigh...

Trust me, you don't live in Osun. You only wish you do. I don't know why you just think negative about everything. This nation can't move forward with people like you thinking this way.

While many are not his fan, you cannot but applaud his uncanny gusto for innovation that benefits the state. If this factory has survived the first five years and it's still waxing stronger, it tells us something Aregbesola saw 5years ago. Imagine, this space would have been taken by Chinese, who will sell substandard stuffs at exorbitant rates.

Love him or hate him, one thing is sure - Osun is no more a mere "civil servant" state
