Mion MP Empowers Graduating Seamstresses with Sewing Machines and Financial Support
The Member of Parliament for the Mion Constituency, Hon. Abdul Aziz Musah Ayaba, has continued his efforts to empower women and youth in the area by handing over 17 sewing machines to graduating seamstresses in Jimli, Mion District, over the weekend.
In addition to the sewing machines, Hon. Ayaba also donated an undisclosed sum of money to the Mion Tailors and Dressmakers Association and to the three master tailors who facilitated the training of the graduating seamstresses.
This initiative, first introduced by Hon. Ayaba in 2019 during his campaign to be elected as MP, aims to provide graduates with the necessary tools and financial support to start their own businesses.
In the maiden edition, the MP donated 17 sewing machines and 17 hairdryers to graduating tailors and hairdressers, along with cash support to help them establish their businesses and encourage them to take on apprentices for training.
