Abia govt to train 40,000 artisans

Forty thousand artisans and local entrepreneurs of Abia State origin are to be trained to perfect their skills in goods and craft productions that meet international standard.

The artisans who hitherto lacked capacity building and skills to deliver good production lines would be exposed to 40 different specialised, identified and commercially viable areas to produce products that could be exported abroad.

The artisans would be trained by international experts from the United States, Thailand, and South Africa and would be certificated by the Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike.

This was made known at the recent South-East, South-South orientation programme for partners and stakeholders of the Global Export Market Access and Expo (GEMAEXPO) of the unifying Nigerian project in Umuahia.

At the flag off of the programme, the wife of the state governor, Lady Mercy Odochi Orji said GEMAEXPO would teach the young artisans and exporters modern dimension of international business transaction and to discover and understand the inherent opportunities in the global market and meet the expected standard therein.

Lady Orji said the programme was aimed at replicating the Asian Tigers economic ingenuity and foresight by galvanising the artisans to exploits and produce crafts that would compete favourably in any economy in order to accelerate our own economic development.

She commended the state governor, Chief Theodore Orji for making the state investors’ friendly, adding that some of the policies put in place and legacy projects going on are testimonies of the government commitment to restore the economic fortunes of Abia and for Aba to

regain its lost glory as the Japan of Africa.

Nnaa nekwanu Abia Ooooo!

Abia dey power this days. Yesterday was 5k+ mega mall, today is another development.

Good for the people of Abia.

Our Governor Mr Obi no dey see this kind thing, na just to put touts everywhere to collect money.

No good thing can come out of abia state until 2015. Their governor is a moroon. I visited the state last month with my big sis because her fiance comes from the state,a place called ohanze in obingwa. The road ikot kpene was so bad that we took alternative route and met our waterloo in a street called ahunya that linked a market called ehere market. I took pics but don't know how to upload them becox of size. Anybody staying in Ogborhill aba can confirm my story. It was my first time of leaving southwest in my life. I thank Oluwa that my big sis and her fiance will be staying here in lagos when they get married. Abia state govt is sleeping big time. But the people are friendly though.

I am so happy reading your post though not the underdevelopment part of Abia you talking about, since we all know that but the fact that there is Inter-tribal marriage relationship going on.I wish them HAPPY MARRIED LIFE. The offspring stands the benefits of knowing 2 languages(ibo and yoruba), benefits of receiving funds and aid from their state local govt. etc...............

Abia, ok!

Aba is the city with the greatest number of craftmen and artisans.people who knws how to do good things with there hands.The state govt can make aba an african industrial hub wit little effort.Aba is a great industrial town and if u visit aba whether on business or pleasure,you will agree with me.

u sabi english and japanse yet kosi noble.

this is a nice one. Abia attracting alot of good initiatives lately. Kudos!

The simple fact is that Abia state gov is not doing well. If u doubt it come to abia and see for urself. If u go to aba u will weep for them.

Governor Orji is making all the good headlines. Okorocha has no ideas and is full of crap.

T A orji's development is only found on the internet and blogs!
Fairy tale drama!
As usual! Can anything good come out of TA Orji

Only those who haven't passed through abia will say that abia state.

WHAT I LOVE MOST ABOUT IBOS ARE THEIR GIRL..TOO HOT..I MEAN TOO HOT
