Enugu NPRGS Trainee Sews Dress for ESUT Director After Ten-Day Training

A beneficiary of the Federal Government’s National Poverty Reduction with Growth Strategy (NPRGS) training programme in Enugu State, Mr. Olougwu Cletus Chigbo, has demonstrated the practical skills acquired during the initiative by designing and sewing a complete dress for the Director of ESUT Business School, Professor Frederick Odo Eze.

Chigbo participated in the Fashion Design course, one of the vocational training components of the programme. At the end of the intensive ten-day training, he successfully produced the complete outfit, showcasing his newly acquired tailoring and fashion design skills.

The achievement underscores the programme’s emphasis on practical learning, vocational competence and the development of income-generating skills among beneficiaries.

It also reflects the Federal Government’s commitment, under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, to empowering young Nigerians with relevant vocational skills that can promote self-reliance, entrepreneurship and sustainable livelihoods.

Through initiatives such as the NPRGS training programme, the government seeks to equip beneficiaries with practical abilities that can improve their economic prospects, create employment opportunities and contribute to poverty reduction.

Chigbo’s accomplishment demonstrates how targeted skills acquisition programmes can translate training into practical results, opening pathways for beneficiaries to become self-reliant and contribute meaningfully to society.
