The Olobu of Ilobu, Oba Ashiru Olaniyan of Irepodun Local Government Area, Osun State, has commended the Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Adegboyega Oyetola, for providing start-up grants to 150 women in his community.

Speaking over the weekend in Ilobu during an empowerment programme sponsored by the Executive Director of Marine and Operations at the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA), Olalekan Badmus, Oba Olaniyan described the initiative as a significant step towards alleviating poverty in the area.

The monarch who was represented by Chief Tunji Laoye said: ā€œI am very glad that despite that the minister had left the state after he served as governor, he still continues the good gesture in strengthening the micro business. 

ā€œThe sector is key to the economy of the nation and Oyetola through Badmus has extended this gesture to us in this council. I commend the minister by standing with the Renewed Hope Agenda.ā€ 

In his address, Badmus disclosed that 150 women benefitted from initiative of Oyetola empowerment named Ilerioluwa Empowerment.

ā€œThe reason for the grant for women is to ensure we strengthen our micro-economy. When this is done, we are indirectly tackling poverty level.ā€
