Meanwhile, we reported that at least 10,000 traders in various markets in Bayelsa state had benefited from the federal government’s Tradermoni free interest loan empowerment scheme, an official has said.
Taiwo Tunmobi, the officer in charge of strategy and operations in the Government Enterprise and Empowerment Programme (GEEP), on Thursday, August 8, said this in Yenagoa at the end of the exercise.
Tunmobi said that over 20,000 traders had earlier registered for the programme but 10,000 were considered in the first batch of beneficiaries.
Delegation of the federal government went to major markets in the state capital, including Tombia-Etegwe roundabout, Okaka market and others, disbursing N10,000 to the 10,000 persons shortlisted for the scheme.
