The philanthropist asked the footwear producers to meet among themselves and finalized on whether they want to start up a shoe making depot in Otukpo or in need of advanced equipments to compete with the industry in Aba and report back to him in a week time.

The G12 foundation CEO promised to push the project before the Small and Medium Enterprises Development Agency of Nigeria (SMEDAN) to get attention from the government but will make sure that he puts the necessary structure on ground for the industry to kick off and have a spot in this year’s international trade fair exhibition, adding that necessary arrangements have been made with the National coordinators of Nigeria’s international trade fair to exhibit the shoes made from Otukpo.
