The wife of the Anambra State governor, Dr. Mrs. Nonye Soludo, has called for sustained support for micro, small and medium-sized enterprises.
Newera News learnt that Mrs Soludo stated this on Saturday in a message to mark 2026 International Micro, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (MSMEs) Day, observed every June 27 in Awka, Anambra State.
The theme of this year’s commemoration is “Human-Centred Entrepreneurship in an AI-Driven Future: Economic Empowerment for the Next Generation of MSMEs”.
Mrs Soludo commended entrepreneurs for their resilience, innovation and determination in building stronger communities.
“Today, we celebrate the resilience, innovation and determination of entrepreneurs whose ideas create jobs, strengthen families and drive sustainable economic growth,” she said.
The governor’s wife called for sustained support for micro, small and medium-sized enterprises, stressing that thriving small businesses were essential to prosperous and inclusive communities.
She noted that the celebration underscored the importance of empowering entrepreneurs through policies and initiatives that expand access to markets, skills development and business opportunities.
Meanwhile, the Anambra State governor, Prof. Charles Soludo, has actively enforced the return to business on Mondays, with enforcement strategies for markets and the civil service to counter the economic impact of the sit-at-home directives.
Government and its authorities are addressing healthcare, with the Anambra State Primary Healthcare Development Agency spearheading widespread vaccination and maternal health campaigns.
