President Bola Tinubu has announced plans to establish a cutting-edge fashion hub in Makurdi within the next 90 days, according to Vice President Kashim Shettima. The revelation was made during the inauguration of the Expanded National Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) Clinics in Makurdi, themed “Benue Open for Business.” Shettima outlined that the state-of-the-art fashion hub would be equipped with modern facilities to support small businesses within the tailoring cluster in Benue State.
The Vice President commended President Tinubu’s commitment to job creation and providing accessible capital to Nigerians through this transformative MSME initiative. He highlighted that the fashion hub, set to be operational within the specified timeframe, is not only a practical realization of President Tinubu’s promise but also a tribute to the industrious spirit of the people of Benue State.
The announcement reflects the intersection of economic development, entrepreneurship, and the fashion industry, aiming to empower small businesses and stimulate growth within the MSME sector. The strategic location of the hub in Makurdi suggests a concerted effort to decentralize economic opportunities and foster regional development.
As the MSME Clinic initiative gains momentum, it signals a collaborative approach between the federal government, led by President Tinubu, and states like Benue, fostering an environment conducive to the growth of micro, small, and medium enterprises. The ambitious project reflects a broader commitment to uplifting various sectors of the economy and creating an enabling environment for entrepreneurial ventures.
