[quote][/quote]



Federal government has finalized arrangements with Anambra State Government to procure all the technical shoe manufacturing equipment for shoe manufacturing industrial clusters in the state.

Managing Director Anambra State Small Business Agency (ASBA), Chief Clement Chukwuka disclosed this while briefing newsmen in his office, in Awka.

Mr Chukwuka explained that the Federal government's support was due to the emergence of Anambra State as the overall winner of the 2019 Most Supportive State on Micro Small and Medium Enterprising.

The award which was giving to Anambra State Government on the 1st of August, 2019 at Abuja, attracted the attention of the Federal government to support the state in promoting small and medium businesses as a key factor to economic growth.

Mr Chukwuka announced that the Vice President of Nigeria, Prof Yemi Osinbajo would in April or May unveil a state-of-the-art warehouse constructed by Anambra State for the purpose of housing those equipment to be procured by the Federal government.

ASBA boss stated some of the offices to be accommodated in the warehouse which include Bank of Industry, Standard Organisation of Nigeria (SON), Cooperate Affairs Commisson, Development Bank of Nigeria and other key players in Micro, Small and Medium space.

According to Mr Chukwuka, "Anambra won the award on the 1st of August, 2019. It was on that bases that the Federal government asked Anambra what support the state.

"It was on this that Anambra demanded for more support on equipment to enable shoe manufacturers produce in larger quantities.

"So federal government has already ordered the purchase of the technical shoe making equipment.

"With this, we don't need to travel to Italy or Spain to buy clothing and shoes. Everything will be made in Anambra.

"If you go to Ogbunike by Nkwelle Ezunaka junction, you begin to see industrial park, shoe manufacturing industrial cluster that was established by ASBA with over 1000 shops, having functional facilities to stand the test of time.

"Anambra is creating jobs everyday. There are retraining of over 600 artesians, exposing them to shoes and clothing manufacturing.

" If you look around beside the shops, you see where we are following the success story, developing tailoring and garment industrial cluster. Where we are bringing critical players in the clothing industry. This is another value added to the economy,as no more importation of shoes and clothing. Indeed, Anambra has created more jobs." Mr Chukwuka pointed.

Such a waste of public fund by the federal govt.

There are important issues the govt should concentrate on, not one yeye warehouse where fake shoes will be stored.

Imagine the office of the so called managing director of the state's small business agency. Who still uses 1 hp window unit ac that can't even be firmly fixed to the wall? Even the complementary split unit, na tokumbo.

Nonsense and ingredients.

They haven't yet started manufacturing and you are already labelling their products as fake.

You didn't even spare the ac in the room. If they start manufacturing ac tomorrow will you come here and label it as fake product?
