Before joining the Mbo Skills & Entrepreneurship program, I only had passion but no structure. Through the training and mentorship, I learned how to manage my business properly and today I have registered my tailoring shop, employed two apprentices, and doubled my income

I used to sell my fish in small quantities within my village. With the support from the Skills Plan, I gained knowledge on modern fish processing and connected with new markets. Now, I supply to hotels and supermarkets in Uyo.

The digital marketing training changed everything for me. I now manage social media pages for local businesses and earn a steady income. This program gave me confidence and opened doors I never thought possible
