PAWECA has announced that it will begin distributing forms for the Fintiri Business Wallet Empowerment Programme across the 21 LGAs through selected stakeholders. The scheme is designed to assist people running micro and small businesses in communities across Adamawa State.
According to the Director General of the agency, Dr Michael Zira, the forms are not to be handled based on personal benefit, family links or favouritism. He stated that the agency expects the forms to reach only real business operators who are actively trading and need financial support to grow their ventures.
The programme targets traders, artisans, food sellers, petty shop owners, tailors, mechanics and other low-income business owners in the state. PAWECA further urged community leaders and distribution committees to ensure a transparent and fair process. The agency stressed that the selection must be inclusive and must serve people who genuinely need the opportunity. Zira noted that the aim is to strengthen small enterprises and improve income among hardworking citizens.
