Highlighting the importance of continuous learning, she encouraged the participants, saying, “I encourage you all to keep learning, keep practicing, build on the skills you have learned in the past two and a half weeks, and keep pushing to be the better versions of yourselves. Of course, there will be challenges along the way, but once you are focused and determined, you will overcome them.”

In conclusion, Mrs. Makinde congratulated the trainees, urging them to be bold and creative in utilizing their newfound skills.

“Go forth, be bold, be creative, and use your newfound skills to make your dreams a reality,” she said.

The Oyo State Head of Service, Mrs. Olubumni Oni, also remarked on the significance of the program, stating, “This tailoring empowerment program is a tremendous relief to the masses. It provides our most vulnerable women with the means to achieve success through skills like tailoring.”

Commissioner of Works, Prof. Kehinde Sangodoyin, applauded the initiative, emphasizing, “Empowering women through skills acquisition is a vital step towards sustainable development. This program not only equips women with practical skills but also instills in them a sense of pride and independence.”

Mr. Deji Akinniranye of Voda Management Limited highlighted the vision behind the initiative.

He said: “The vision to empower women through this program is truly commendable. By providing them with the tools and knowledge they need, we are helping them secure a better future for themselves and their families.”
