At the Ikoyi-Obalende Small Business Empowerment Program, organized by LCDA Chairman Hon. Fuad Atanda-Lawal, the “Empowering Her Fortune Initiative 2.0” was launched, distributing N50 million in grants to women-owned SMEs. Each beneficiary received N100,000 in cash.
SMEDAN, led by Director General Charles Odii, proudly partnered in this initiative, reaffirming our commitment to supporting women entrepreneurs. We are collaborating with local governments nationwide to enhance grassroots opportunities through programs like the One Local Government One Product (OLOP) initiative, which aids small businesses via registered cooperatives.
